    Bio:
  • Missy is the daughter of Oscar Berry, who is the All-Time Leading Points Scorer in Galletta’s History… of all drivers who never won a single race.
  • In 2006, Missy started by flagging with her mom, Janet at Galletta’s in 2006-07 seasons, and can be seen in videos all that season.
  • After practicing racing her dad in her father’s yard for a year, he felt she could compete — and she did so.
  • Missy then drove for her dad Oscar most of 2007 (until she fought with him). She even scored a Heat win!

Bio Continued:

  • However, Missy stopped racing with us after her father stopped racing at Galletta’s.
  • Sady, her father abruptly quit racing with us (after angrily accusing us of rigging — despite always helping him with motors setup, and him almost always handicapping his starts up front) in the pits at Oswego Kartway and joined the OHV Outlaws in 2008, followed by the Clones in 2009 (after both Galletta’s FHs and OHV Outlaws were axed from the program). Last we heard, her father retired from racing there as well (with accusations of rigging), and reportedly still without a single victory. Unsure if his trademark weekly spin-outs were part of the rigging.
