1st time winner in SS
Congrats to local boy Pete D'Agnolo for winning SS at Zmax this weekend. He's good friends with my boys, and he's a very good young racer that I'm sure will win many more events in the future.
But as happy as I am for Pete, I'm probably even happier for his dad Sam. Sam has raced that same car since I was a teenager, maybe longer. I remember watching him run the same car in Modified Eliminator at the local tracks back when they ran Modified at the local tracks! He's a hardcore, hard working, die hard class racer that probably no one outside of western NY ever knew about till now, and I couldn't be happier for him and the whole family. Great job guys! |

Congrats to Pete D'Agnolo for Winning S/S @ Zmax ...
I have to agree with Dan, he is very quickly becoming a Super Racer & a Tough guy to get past ... I am sure this is the First of many Wins to come for Pete ... ( Checkout his Lights ) " Enjoy it , you earned !!!! " Good Luck in 2014

Re: 1st time winner in SS
Quite the string of lights he had! Does he cut double-o's in his sleep? Well done.
Dan giving him lessons or vise-versa :-) |

Re: 1st time winner in SS
Hey Dan I remember Sam from the old IHRA Modified days. Spoke to Sam and met Pete at Norwalk D3 race last year.
Congrats to the D'Agnolo family. Hope to see you all in a few weeks. Dave |
