On September 25th, 2022, we'll be celebrating the 10th anniversary of the "Mike Pisano Classic" HO slot car race. This race is in honor of my son Mike who I lost way too early in his life to leukemia.
Thanks to all my friends and family for all the previous celebrations which were held at N.J. hobby in Scotch Plains. After missing the 2020 race because of Covid I was honored that Henry Harnish held last year’s race at his Randolph Raceway Complex at 42 Schoolhouse Road in Randolph NJ. Henry has generously offered to hold it there again this year.
Please use the link to get all the information about the race.

Hello, Racers:
The Henry Harnish September 5th annual BLAST race in Randolph NJ this year is sponsoring the 9TH annual “MIKE PISANO CLASSIC “that traditionally has been run at NJ Hobby honoring my son Mike that I lost 9 years ago to Leukemia.
The race is an IROC format timed heat race with E-Fray Dash chassis and expertly built by Derek Wright and Paul Kniffen. These cars are fast and run great and I’m sure they will provide loads of exciting racing on Henry’s large Bowman track. All you need is a controller!
Please come and join us around 1:45 after lunch and Henry’s Superstock/Sportsman race on the big track and Trans Am on the vintage Aurora TUB track.
I’m happy to say the North Jersey HO Racers will be joining us for the 1st time for Mike’s race and I’m sure they will add lots of exciting racing and lots of plenty of fun.
It’s sure to be a great afternoon of racing with lunch, door prizes, giveaways, raffles, items for sale, trophies, and plaques all for a great cause with all donations and proceeds collected to be donated to the Leukemia Foundation. Over the years I’m proud to say we have donated almost $5000.00 to the foundation thanks to the generosity of my friends and fellow racers. Please go to https://www.mandmhobbies.com for more information or you can reach out to me.
Please note: you will need a mask to enter the event.
