A Young Boy With Tall Dreams

Bobby LaPonte is confessedly only a youth. He is 6 seasons of age, the only child of his parents, and lives with his parents in Johns Creek, Georgia.

Though Bobby has huge hopes. Despite being jovial in age, he’s completely fixated on his dream to sometime drive in NASCAR’s giant scene, the Sprint Cup Series.

Bobby’s dreams are so giant, actually, that he often thinks regarding driving with the big fellows. According to his folks, Larry and Nancy, he even emulates the clamor of race cars while asleep.

Larry believes that his boy acquired his interest in racing while still in the womb.

“I drove the amateur road course circuit for 10 seasons,” he said. “When my spouse was expectant with Bobby, she would always be there to see me compete and we believe that is when Bobby began his obsession with racing.”

Much akin to Jeff Gordon and his girl Ella, the LaPontes have photographs of youthful Bobby climbing in and out of his father’s race car when he was merely a baby.

Bobby would drive each day if he was able to, and he becomes that chance with the long race year, from March to November, in the south. He and his dad race each Saturday and Sunday, frequently traveling to other areas, which include Alabama, North Carolina, and Tennessee, to take part in their regional events.

This most recent July, Bobby raced in his 1st countrywide title event. He earned a win in his semifinal group race.

Bobby is swift to notify you that he races quarter midgets, a smaller type of the USAC Midget Sprint cars that Cup drivers such as NASCAR’s championship point president Tony Stewart begun his profession driving.

Bobby lets you know that since he plans to follow in Stewart’s footsteps and follow that same road in his own nascar career.

This little guy indeed is looking forward to satisfying his huge NASCAR dreams, that of racing with his heroes in the years to come.
