Fanfare with Lisa Mirabella

It’s time again for another edition of Fanfare, where we go out into the stands and talk to the fans at Riverhead Raceway. This week we talked to Lisa Mirabella. Lisa has lived on Long Island her entire life and has been coming to Riverhead Raceway the last 10 years after taking a 20 year break. Influenced by her dad’s love of cars, Lisa has been loving cars since she was a kid. Her and her new husband both share the same love of cars today.

Lisa really enjoys watching the Demolition Derby’s that are held at the raceway. Lisa also likes watching the Modifieds and comes to Riverhead to support her long time friends; Modified driver John Fortin and his children John Fortin Jr. and Amber Fortin.

“I’m here as much as I can as a friend and a fan to support [them]” she said. Mirabella also mentioned that she enjoys coming to Riverhead because of all the excitement at the track and the different people you can meet. “You meet a lot of different, some people you haven’t seen in awhile, I love it.”
