Get to Know: Dave Abramczyk

Charger racer Dave Abramczyk pilots the #56 at Painesville Speedway, finishing fifth in the final 2024 Championship Standings, winning two heat races during the 2024 season.

How did you get involved in racing?

I got involved in racing by my dad and his racing partner back when I was 4 years old. I would hang around the shop and watch and learn and then went to the track and I was hooked.

How long have you been racing?  Why did you choose the number you race?

I’ve been around racing for more then 20 years helping work on my dad’s car and other driver’s cars.I’ve been driving for 5 years now myself. I chose the number 56 because that was my number I used when I played sports and my Dad used that number for the same reason.

What’s your favorite race track you’ve raced on?

I don’t necessarily have a favorite, but I tend to like longer tracks but also enjoy the tight bull rings.

What kind of hobbies outside of the racecar do you have?

I like to spend time with my family.

Did you have any racing heroes growing up?

I grew watching a lot of drivers but I think my 2 favorite heros were Roger Black and Rusty Adams. They both were able to get the absolute best out of their cars.

What’s your favorite racing memory?

This would have to be building my dad’s Modified with him and then watching him race it and seeing him win his first race that was a very special day for both of us.


Do you have any racers that you are close friends with?

I enjoy all the racers at the track and everyone helping out when needed. With all the tragedies we’ve have this year hopefully it’ll bring us all closer together as a community.

What is your greatest accomplishment in racing?

I would say winning my B feature in my first year of racing 4 years ago at Lorain Raceway Park’s Fall Festival of Speed 2021

Do you have any raceday rituals or superstitions?

On race days I eat the same meal every week before I get to the track. When at the track when I get in the car for the first set of practice ol’ Blue Betty (my car) and I have a nice talk about taking caring each other.

What are your plans for 2025?

Plans for 2025 include running for a championship at The Painesville Speedway in the charger division. We plan to run a couple races at other tracks as well as doing parades and possibly car shows.

Anyone you want to thank for getting you here?

I have to first thank my wife Melissa because without her support none of this would even be possible. I also have to thank my sponsors Special Sports, Zoresco Equipment Company and Abramczyk Family Lawncare. Without all of them it wouldn’t be possible to do what I love to do.

What are your long term goals in racing?

Long term goal is to win a championship and then possibly move up to another division.
