ANTHONY GAROFALO
Anthony Garofalo was invited to join Team FMR in 2017 having impressed us in CKRC. Anthony says he has always had a passion for cars for as long as he could remember. You could say he was born into it. His love of cars and motorsports became evident when he received his first Formula One electric car on his second birthday as that's when he began dreaming about being the next Michael Schumacher. His Passion continued to develop at through his formative years when he would spend time with his Father at his auto shop lending a helping hand when and where he could. At six years of age, his father put him in the very go-kart he used to race in as a kid awakening a deep passion and love for karting. A year later at the tender age of 7, Anthony began racing in the Arrive & Drive program at Goodwood Kartways, Team FMR's home track. fast forward five years to this successful season, where he took a second place finish overall in the highly competitive teen group breaking what would have been a Team FMR Sunday sweep. In 2017 he moved up to the Briggs Jr class with help from the scholarship where he finished 22nd out of 54 in the overall championship. In 2018 he moved up to the harder Briggs Sr class where he finished 10 out of 78 in the championship racing against some of the best drivers in North America. For the 2019 Season, Anthony will be driving for Team VSR, or to use its proper name Ventresca Seberras Racing where he will campaign a new ROK Vortex 2-Stroke Tony Kart
