GSP Racing Enters Pirelli World Challenge

Brooklyn, NY - GSP Racing announced its entry in the 2012 Pirelli World Challenge Championships with a GTS Ford Mustang Boss 302s, driven by Alfonso Perri and owned by Gino Lucci. GSP will operate with Capaldi Racing for the 2012 Sports Car Wars season.

GSP Racing will run a Ford Mustang Boss 302s in Pirelli World Challenge GTS.
“This year will be the beginning of a Life long ambition,” said Gino Lucci, team president. Lucci was born in Naples, Italy, and opened a auto-body repair shop in New York in the early 1970s. Soon after, he modified some cars for an up-coming movie with NASCAR-style roll cages. He founded a new venture in the film business and after 36 years, Lucci provides anything on wheels So far supplying cars for approximately 1,600 major films, and over 10,000 commercials.

“The thought of heading a race team for the Pirelli World Challenge was inconceivable to me six months ago, now that dream is becoming a reality ,” continued Lucci.

Alfonso Perri added: “The goals for this season are to represent GSP racing and our sponsors in a professional manner both on and off the track. Being that we are a new team I will focus on learning and delivering valuable information to the team every time I'm on track. I also hope to challenge for rookie of the year in the Pirelli World Challenge.”

Perri began racing karts at the age of 11, quickly moving to Europe to race on the international stage. He spent time in Formula F, driving for legendary prep-shop SRP, based on Long Island.

I wonder what the movie that got Lucci started was.

Is their race shop in Brooklyn?

It will be fun to follow the teams progress in 2012. Always nice to see new talent race.

Moving to 'Mustang Motorsports' section, but will leave a link for a couple of days and best of luck to your friend!
