I think alittle raffle or donations should be made, johnny always supports the track and is one hell of a dedicated fan who sits up in turn 1 each and every saturday night!! Lets him out so him and doug can get back in competition on sundays!!

I planned on putting something together for the both of them this Sunday at the track, lets try and raise some money for these guys to help them get back on their feet, and back on the track as soon as possible, either see Joe Hodge or the Bonsignore trailer on Sunday or any of the track officials to help these guys out!

On behalf of East End Kart Racing, Dave and Cindy Brigati would like to give both Johnny Thompson and Doug Ojiejko a $250 gift certificate to Bonsignore Kart Shoppe to help get them back up and running. Johnny Thompson is one of our contenders for the championship in the Sr. Champ division he just won the last race and we would like to see him have a shot at it. Doug Ojiejko one of our former champions returning for a few races and always exciting to watch also a long time supporter of go kart racing on Long Island. At East End Kart Racing this is a time where we would like to see everyone come together and support these two talented drivers.


Good Luck, see ya at the track!
Dave Brigati
