🌟GET TO KNOW OUR STAFF🌟 John Bandimere Jr.

🌟GET TO KNOW OUR STAFF🌟 John Bandimere Jr.
Title: C.S.O. (Chief Spiritual Officer)
Department: Executive Team
Number of years employed with Bandimere: President/Owner for over 50 years and in some capacity for all 63 years.
Favorite Bandimere event: Saratoga Casino High-Altitude Bracketnationals and the Dodge Mile-High Nationals
Favorite thing to order at Bandimere concessions: Smothered breakfast burrito and the Johnny Slopper

Hobbies outside of the racetrack: Golf and spending time with Lorraine and family.
Favorite memory at Bandimere Speedway: Rebuilding the track in 1987 and the day financing was finalized. Also, the joy of working with my family - watching them grow.

🌟GET TO KNOW OUR STAFF🌟 John 'Sporty' Bandi

🌟GET TO KNOW OUR STAFF🌟 John 'Sporty' Bandimere III
Title: Executive Team/Marketing
Department: Management/Marketing/Tech
Number of years employed with Bandimere: Started picking up trash when I was in grade school. When I was 8 I'd drive the trash truck and trailer while my father dumped the trash cans.
Favorite Bandimere event: It’s hard to pinpoint one event as my favorite as the beauty of our sport is that it's so diversified. The sport allows everyone the opportunity to enjoy performance and the automobile regardless of age, gender, skill level, economic status or event mechanical aptitude. The sport opens the door to kids at 5 years of age and never closes until the day the good Lord takes them home. My father bought me a go-kart/dragster from Mickey Thompson way before the time Jr Dragsters became a thing and even just sitting in the cockpit while parked in the bed of the pickup I knew racing would be in my blood. When you love this sport you get just as excited watching the excitement of kids racing their Jr’s as you do seeing 300mph nitro cars blast down the track.
Favorite thing to order at Bandimere concessions: anything with ICE CREAM
Do you race? If yes, what vehicle and class? I very rarely get a chance to race competitively, but 6-8 times a year I get the opportunity to take one of Tony & Jerrie Franco’s jet dragsters for a blast down the quarter-mile.
Hobbies outside of the racetrack: What’s a hobby? I thought work was a hobby.
Favorite memory at Bandimere: I love watching racers in the winner circle. For as much fun as this sport is it's also one of the most difficult and unforgiving. Watching racers celebrate their victories never gets old. You can’t have a family business that is about to turn 63 years old and not experience a lot of exciting and emotional times. As much as I love the sport, cars and horsepower for me it's about the people and relationships. If I didn’t have the relationships with our racing family I'd have to find a hobby.

Title: Executive Team – Racer Relations and Nitro Knockouts
Department: Marketing
Number of years employed with Bandimere: I have worked at the track since I was 16, in the office since 1989 – wow!
Favorite Bandimere event: Bracketnationals – I love the parade of cars that drive by the Tech Building Saturday and Sunday morning before we start time trials. I like all of the variety of races, especially the pit vehicle race. It’s like a family reunion weekend!
Favorite thing to order at Bandimere concessions: I like the Johnny Slopper – no bun with extra green chili.
Do you race? If yes, what vehicle and class? I don’t race too much but do enjoy it when I get a chance to.
Hobbies outside of the racetrack: A new hobby I have started to do is making things with my Cricut that my kids got me for Christmas in 2019. I also love movies, going to dinner with friends, hanging with family and shopping!
Favorite memory at Bandimere Speedway: I have so many fun memories from the track it’s hard to come up with just one. Even though it was a lot of work, I loved the years our kids raced in the junior dragster series. It was great family time. We worked together, ate together, won together and lost together. We enjoyed the time in the pits with other racing families.
