Jon Mirachi
Jon Mirachi

President/Team Manager/Driver Coach
A degree in Automotive Technology, 23 years of race driving experience, and 12 years of business training in an automotive dealership provided an excellent background for race team management. Since founding the team in 1990, Jon’s role has evolved to where his current primary responsibility in the shop is marketing programs, business development and overall management, while his role at the track is that of the team’s driver coach. Nothing gives him more pride than seeing the growth and success of the other staff members and drivers. When not working at racing, Jon enjoys fitness activities and is a certified personal trainer.

Growing up karting with his family, Jim raced karts successfully for several years which allowed him to learn the fundamentals of vehicle dynamics. He joined Racers Edge at only 18 years of age and since then has studied race car engineering to emerge as a highly skilled and race winning engineer. At the events, Jim also is responsible for the team’s pit stop strategy and during pit stops he is the driver changer.
