The Worlds Fastest Supra Driver
My name is Paul Efantis and I am a partner and mechanic of Motorsports Performance, in Frederick, Maryland. The business opened in 2001 and has been very successful providing parts, accessories, tuning and modifications to our customers. In addition to running a successful business, my team has been very successful on the Drag Strip. We have set numerous records and have made quite an impact in the racing community. This by no means happened by accident, as a lot of hard work and history has been put into the success of our racing program, as well as the business.
My family has been involved with racing longer than I can remember. My father, who goes by "The Greek", has been involved with racing his entire life. He was a crew chief for an AA funny car team as well as competing in NHRA National events himself. From this, my father took his experiences and opened a premier Auto Body and Custom Paint Shop in Frederick, MD. Over the past 20 years, Creative Colours Auto Body and Custom Paint has grown to 4 times its original size in its current location and has added a second location to serve the growing Mid Atlantic region.
Needless to say I have been exposed to automobiles and racing my whole life. At the age of 13, I began racing motocross and had a very successful 5 years of racing. I learned a lot about bike control, competition, dedication and winning. I also learned a bit about pain, breaking both arms while practicing to prepare for the National Amateur Championships. I continued to race motocross until the age of 18. It was about that time that I got my first taste of Drag Racing. Over the past four years, I have put together a program that is dedicated to winning and maintaining a professional appearance. This program is continuing to gain speed and draw International attention.
During the 2002 season, I raced a 1997 Toyota Supra. With the help of my Family and many outside sponsors, we built the Supra into a record breaking, head turning piece of equipment. This car has become the featured Supra in Sport Compact magazine articles, as well as being a crowd favorite at the events we attend. As far as the results and record books are concerned, in 2002 our team posted top results in the street class. In the street class, we were not only the #1 qualifier at every event, we set records in ET and MPH. In addition, we also qualified 6th in the modified class at a NHRA with the same car. This was simply the opening of the door into the 2003 Season.
For 2003, We redefined winning in the BFGoodrich Tires Pro Street Tire Class of the NORA's Fast and Furious Series. Not only growing to become a crowd favorite and a featured driver, we are well on our way to the X Box Championship and an undefeated position in this series. The success we have experienced this year will most definitely carryover into 2004. To raise the bar, our new race program that will feature both our Championship Supra as well as a 2003 Toyota Solara backhalf modified car. We plan to run the Solara in the NHRA Modified class as well as attending NORA and select IDRC events. It is our goal to win at each event we attend and set many records along the way. We not only strive to go fast but to have the most professional looking team and pit crew in 2003. It is our focus not only to win races but also to do it in style while at the same time putting all eyes on our program and those who support our racing effort. The following pages will go over MSP Racings Bios and profile. In addition you will find information on becoming a sponsor at various levels. See you at The Races!
