Fun Facts on Jesse and Galletta's Racing:
Jesse was one of the original Galletta's Go-Kart racers. He raced with us in the very early 1990s when we only had 2 karts, sometimes alternating between karts with Chris and Matt. Back then, we had 1-on-1 elimination tournament races to decide champions because we only had 2 karts. In that regard, he was the 1st unofficial visiting driver to win at Galletta's, before we counted official records (That started in 1996, with this website covering them from 2000-up). Jesse raced periodically through the 1990s, but only restarted racing with us regularly in 2009, and oddly enough, despite all his years of periodic racing, his first ever Klassic was the the 2009 Galletta's Klassic. Because such a large amount of his early races took place before the 2000 season (the year we started digitally adding all of our records together), his point totals are a little lower than they should be on the All-Time Galletta's Raceway Points List.
Did You Know?:
The Galletta's #0, when newly donated to the club in 2002, used to be numbered the #00 for Jesse, in honor of his favorite driver - Supermodified legend Joe Gosek. However, when Jesse semi-retired from racing in the early 2000's, it was just re-named the #0 in order to match the Galletta's Kart numbers (the first ten Galletta karts were numbered 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, and 9, although we also have 19, 33, and 80, with #74 reserved).
