Casey Call, of Pembroke NH. Is the 2013 Gifford\u2019s Ice Cream Bandolero Series Champion, at New Hampshire Motor Speedway (NHMS). \u00a0\u00a0<\/span>\u201cIt’s definitely pretty cool. I never thought going into this year that, I would have done so well so early. I really need to thank Gifford’s Ice Cream and NHMS for getting this series going. It’s definitely been a lot of fun!!\u201d<\/p>\n With 5 wins over the course of the season, Casey had some amazing memories over the season. \u00a0<\/span>\u201cThe most memorable moment for me was the race that Jordan and I had a good battle for the win and I was able to get around him on the last lap to win the race!!\u201d<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n Though Casey had some amazing success the race team did have to fight back from some tough times. \u201cThe only real struggle and low point I had was when I spun out a lot one night and we struggled due to a mechanical problem and my dad found the problem and fixed it. We went out and won the race, then the next week they put a 3 spin rule in effect and it really made me feel like I messed up bad. But my dad told me to use it as a learning tool and put it behind us and try harder. That’s exactly what we did and we went on to win more races without any spins.\u201d<\/p>\n Casey is gearing down for the winter as the 2013 race season is coming to close, \u201cI have no real plans other than to take a small break and maybe do some indoor racing over the winter and possibly make a trip south for a race or two.\u201d<\/p>\n Though Casey is taking some time off from racing during the winter, he is gearing up for the future, \u201cWe plan to run a full season in the Bando and also in the kart. Along with possibly testing a legend car for the following year.\u201d<\/p>\n On race weekends the bando\u2019s share the track with Granite State Legends car which also race on the 1.4 mile road course, so what if next season the bando\u2019s ran a race on the road course. \u201cThat would be a lot of fun. I’ve done some road course racing in a kart before and really liked it.\u201d<\/p>\n For the final Gifford\u2019s Ice Cream Bandolero the young drivers shared the race track with NASCAR. \u201cIt was pretty cool, but honestly I just tried to treat it like any other race. My dad told me to just go out and have fun and race smart which is what I tried to do. I got to say it was pretty cool seeing my buddy Jacob Perry won that race. He has come so close a bunch and finally got his first win there.\u201d<\/p>\n Casey would like to thank his sponsors for their help support this season. Reliable Transmission, Sign Works, Dick Kruger Excavating, and Mark McCoo.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" story by Chris Roy Casey Call, of Pembroke NH.
