Galletta’s Greenhouse Racing Team Kart #7
The #7 started as a built-from-scratch project to make a lighter kart for a heavier driver in 2001. It has always been a fast kart with many different winning drivers (Tim & Justin Galletta, Ryan Coleman, Buddy Cottom, Dick & Nick Dann among others), but its most triumphant win came when veteran Super Stock and Supermodified driver Kelly Miller passed both Matt Stevens and then Chris Stevens in traffic with it to a surprise win the 2013 Galletta’s Klassic 200! Often available for rent on most race weekends.
Galletta’s Greenhouse Racing Team #7: The #7 started as a built-from-scratch project to make a lighter kart for a heavier driver in 2001-02. It was first painted silver and red to look like the Booth Racing #61 supermodified, but various drivers kept adding colors, and it later developed silver with light blue highlights, then fully blue winged number panels. Often available for rent most race weekends, it has always been a fast kart with many different winning drivers (Tim & Justin Galletta, Ryan Coleman, Buddy Cottom, Dick & Nick Dann among others), but its most triumphant win came when Super Stock and Supermodified driver Kelly Miller passed both Matt Stevens and then Chris Stevens in traffic with it to a surprise win the 2012 Galletta’s Klassic 200! Later on, his son Steven Perez won, but Kelly was too impatient to stay for long enough to see it! Due to its status as a handicap kart with a little extra in the motor department, it has become one of the most successful karts in the fleet as it gives some slightly heavier drivers a solid chance at wins.
Something only a few karts & drivers have ever done — A Galletta’s Klassic 200 Win!

Paint Job Inspiration
The #7 was first painted silver and red to look like the Booth Racing #61 supermodified, but various drivers kept adding colors, first with red numbers and a blue stripe, then later developed silver with light blue highlights, to now fully light-blue wings with a silver #7.
