My name is
Bob Ragone Jr. and I am the owner
of Performance Werx. I have been a Greenwich CT. resident
for
39 of my 42 years and everyone in my family has been involved with racing at one time or
another. My brother Scott,
who is also helping to develop our latest build, the GTM, has raced many different cars and is a top notch body
man as well as being
a very creative performance pro.
I started working on my first
motorcycle engine when I was 12,
and by the time I was 15, with help from my dad, I modified my first engine in
our 18’ Formula powerboat. From that time on I was hooked on
anything that was fast. By the time I was 21, I had owned & modified 5 performance cars, including 2 Corvettes and
I was
also maintaining a Lamborghini, 2 Ferraris an Aston Martin and a speed
boat for a friend in NYC.
My knowledge of
cars and boats is very extensive, having completely rebuilt, modified and
restored cars, boats and
motorcycles from the ground up, (including, approx.45 of my own). I have modified,
built and tuned countless turbo-charged, supercharged and naturally aspirated
engines for sport and race applications. I have always been a head
of the crowd, applying all available technology.
