A record number of racers showed up at Race Ya on Staten Island for our weekly Flexi NASCAR Race with Hawk 7 motors.

 

Unfortunately three racers had to bow out for personal or health problems... but we still broke a record with 20.

 

First off was the B Main with 13 racers... but longtime Buzz-A-Rama racer John "The Jet" Triandopolis who came out of a 45-year retirement to start racing again last week took home his first win. Second was Anthony Stallone by only a few sections, and third went to Steve Perri. 

 

Next up was the A Main where Anthony Onesto continues his dominance over the field with a record-setting 275 laps. Second was yours truly Nicky Traina with 261 laps. Third was Uncle Ralphie D'Ambra with 257 laps.

 

This weekly series keeps growing and growing with new racers showing up every week. We have a great bunch of guys and the racing is really getting competitive as each racer gets better and better. 

 

Anyone looking to come race can see me or John Vitale and we can set you up.

Another record was broken last night 4/4/23 at Race Ya on Staten island 

23 racers converged on the 135 foot Hillclimb on Staten Italy.

The night started out with a celebration for John Kohm .........as he finished up his last cancer treatment. *** CANCER was the theme of the night. 

John and Tara Vitale the owners catered food and cake for John and rest of the crew. After the celebration it was on to racing where John Kohm didn't disappoint  with the B Main win in record fashion.

With 251 laps ..........John smoked the field, second was John "THE JET" Triandopolis with 236 laps and third was Steve Perri with 235. 

 

The A main was once again dominated by Anthony "BIG O" Onesto with a record 279 laps. Nick Traina pushed hard  but in the end second place was all he could muster with 269 laps. Third place went to Mike Robinson with 268. 

Her are the final results.
