Ransomville Speedway
Ransomville Speedway Profile: Cole Susice
Living directly behind the race track has been a pretty big advantage to this 19 year old Acura RSX enthusiast and Mini Stock super star. Starting at the Little R in go karts and advancing into the Mini Stock division, Cole Susice has always shown consistency in growth (and speed getting a back up car to the track). In 2016, Susice won the Mini Stock Track Championship at Ransomville Speedway, but he didn’t stop there. With 6 feature wins, 2019 was a season of dreams for the Ransomville native, winning the 2019 Ransomville Speedway Mini Stock Track Championship, 2019 Genesee Speedway Mini Stock Track Championship, and the Ransomville Speedway and Genesee Speedway Mini Series. Some of his favorite highlights are the September 6th and 13th features from the Mini Series, which he won both of them! Susice plans to stay consistent with his titles and “win all three championships (Ransomville Speedway, Genesee Speedway, and the Ransomville Speedway and Freedom Motorsports Park Mini Series) and to win 10 races”. For anyone starting their racing career, as track champion, Cole says to “stick with the program as your first year is just for understanding the basics and getting a handle on racing and not so much about winning”. Susice is driven to “make as big of a name for himself as possible” and he is surely doing that. The Mini Stock division has always had very close, action packed racing and his dedication and passion to the sport has been brought to the spotlight after the 2019 season. Cole Susice is definitely proving to be a fierce competitor in the division. Susice would like to thank Durfs Hot Wheels and Car Deals and Cole Susice Racing for their generous support for the 2020 season. Other than his sponsors, he would like to thank his mom, dad, Austin, Chris, the Goetzman family, and Kevin for their unconditional support throughout his racing career thus far.
