BIO:
Bob Lupini has raced from the time
he got his driver's license. He started
out racing street-cars, then evolved
to motorcycles, stock cars, a 200
MPH fuel altered and now, dragsters
and funny cars. When he ran late model
stock cars in NASCAR in the 1980's,
he finished in the top 50 out of 400
in 1987.
In
the mid-1990's, Bob drag raced with
the "HOT RODS FROM HELL"
200-MPH Altered show. With his rear
engine dragster, Bob was 2000 runner-up
at 75-80 Dragway in Class 1. In 1999,
he was the East Coast Super Comp Champion.
Over the years, Bob has amassed numerous
wins at 75-80 Dragway, Mason-Dixon
Dragway and Maryland International
Raceway. He also developed a self-admitted
ego problem - he liked to be the fastest
car at the track!
While
Bob is a very accomplished drag racer,
"ego" may be a strong word
- truthfully, Bob has turned his competitive
nature and winning edge into the firmly
grounded and highly involved Lupini
Family Racing Team! The Lupini family
includes two very determined kids
- Anthony and Amanda. Each of them
boasts that they are students first,
Moto X next. In addition to winning
Moto X racing competitions, each also
wants to be a skateboard champion!
Anthony likes to go fast and win -
like his Dad!
Sporting
his Yamaha YZ 125 entry. Anthony says
his parents have always supported
him as long as he keeps his good grades
and racing has taught him to be a
good sport in winning and in losing.
He has been on the Honor Roll almost
every report card. He played on two
first place football teams and was
an all-star in 1999. He likes all
X game types of sports and he is a
very good skateboard stunt rider.
Amanda
likes to go fast on her Yamaha TTR
90 and race her brother on his dirt
motorcycle. She is a member of the
Cheerleading all-star Team in 1999,
2000, 2001 and 2002. Amanda has reached
the Honor Roll on every report card.
She believes she can do anything and
do it well. Scott Isanogle is the
team crew chief and will pilot the
dragster when Bob begins to run the
funny car. Scott has many years of
driving experience and has a winning
record in all types of racing.
Debi
Fisher-Lupini, Bob's wife, holds MBA
and CPA designations and is the team's
manager. Her extensive knowledge is
an integral part of the team's finances.
The Lupini Family Racing Team intends
to offer a race team for their sponsors
to include the trailer and truck.
In addition, they do community work,
including cars shows for MADD Show
the Lake Anna Cruizers show, C.O.P.S.
Against Drugs The National Guard Show
with the race cars and the family-owned
fire truck! They have been featured
in publications like Drag Racing USA,
National Dragster, Hot Rod, Drag Review,
Washington Metropolitan Area Transit
Authority's magazine and ARS Company
Magazine. As a team, the Lupini's
and FPCFX will work hard for a sponsor,
doing car shows, presenting displays
and actively distributing handouts.
