Racing Team
with issues!!
2004 was Ryan's first year racing
and his sponsors included The Last Chance Saloon, Sass Auto Wrecking,
and Sam Gullatta's Drawings Unlimited. The car is owned by Mark and
Crissi Gullatta, and his relative Nick Gullatta
drives the #27 Late Model at Lorain Speedway as well. For the 2005 and 2006 racing seasons, South Paw
Racing Collectibles has jumped on board as a sponsor, as well as United Tool & Gage, Excell Automotive, and
Michael's Auto Parts. Ryan moved up to the Limited Late Model Division
in 2007, and is back at it again for 2008...we look forward to see where
he will be racing, after being so successful and having such a blast at the
other tracks.
Some rubbing going
on !!
Ryan's motto
for racing is "Drive fast and turn left!!!" His racing goals are to be
consistent and "to keep the car in one piece". He loves Lorain Speedway
because of the fans and the fellow competitors. Ryan's favorite racing moments so far were finally
winning his 1st "Fast 14 Race" and getting to do his reverse donuts, and
the second would be showing up at Barberton Speedway for only the
second time ever there and winning the Heat race & the Feature race
!!! Oh yea and he did my reverse donuts after that toooo !! LOL
Ryan wants to thank his racing family and "Flying" Brian Volk for
the racing inspiration, and Mark, Crissi, Dennis, Doneta, Chad, Maji, his
sponsors & everyone one else out there!! He says there are way 2 many
more people 2 write down!
