WHO WE ARE
THE GILLEAN PERFORMANCE RACING TEAM STARTED AS A DREAM IN THE SMALL TOWN OF MONROE, MICHIGAN, BUT INSPIRED BY PASSION AND DRIVEN BY DETERMINATION, THE DREAM BECAME A REALITY. THE DRIVER AND FOUNDER, MITCHELL GILLEAN, STARTED WORKING ON GO KARTS IN HIS PARENT’S GARAGE WHEN HE WAS 12. AFTER WATCHING 1 INDYCAR RACE, HE KNEW WHAT HE WANTED TO DO IN LIFE. AFTER GETTING A JOB AT 13, HE MANAGED TO SAVE ENOUGH TO GO RACING AT NEW CASTLE MOTORSPORTS PARK WHEN HE WAS 15. 5 YEARS LATER, THE SAME DETERMINED NOW YOUNG MAN IS STILL DOING WHATEVER IT TAKES TO GET THE GP RACING TEAM TO THE TOP OF THE PODIUM.
OUTSIDE OF RACING, THE GP RACING TEAM CONTINUES TO SHOW ITS PASSION FOR ANYTHING AUTOMOTIVE. MAKING CUSTOM-FABRICATED PARTS FOR CLASSIC BMWS, AMERICAN HOTRODS, AND VWS/AUDIS, THE TEAM HAS SHOWN ITS ABILITY TO THINK OUTSIDE OF THE BOX TO GAIN WHATEVER THE OWNERS ARE LOOKING TO GAIN. FROM MAKING POWER TO TIGHTENING THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE TO MAKING AESTHETICALLY PLEASING CARS, WE DON’T SHY AWAY FROM A PROJECT ALL IN THE NAME OF GETTING EVERYTHING OUT OF THE DRIVING EXPERIENCE.
THE GP RACING TEAM IS AN EFFORT FROM ALL SPONSORS AND PARTNERS. OUR PARTNERS HELP MAKE EVERYTHING WE DO POSSIBLE. IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN BECOMING A PART OF OUR PROGRAM, PLEASE LOOK TOWARDS OUR GET INVOLVED PAGE OR REACH OUT TO US DIRECTLY THROUGH THE CONTACT PAGE.
