Bob and Sofia Morreale: A Family Fueled by Automotive Passion
Bob Morreale's love affair with cars began long before he became a renowned expert in automotive tuning and road course racing. Since 1996, Bob has dedicated his life to mastering the intricacies of vehicle tuning, from the classic Buick Grand Nationals to the formidable engines of GM LS, Ford Coyote, and Dodge HEMI V8s. His trusty C6 Corvette has been his faithful companion on countless road courses, where he has honed his skills and earned a reputation as a true aficionado of high-performance vehicles.
In 2008, Bob's passion for tuning led him to found The Tuning School, a pioneering institution where he serves as President. Each day, he immerses himself in the latest tuning techniques, sharing his expertise through courses, books, and videos. With over 20 tuning-related books to his name, Bob has become an invaluable resource for enthusiasts worldwide, mentoring thousands of students in the art of tuning high-performance cars.
Bob's influence extends far beyond the classroom and the track. Through over 250 videos, he offers enthusiasts a front-row seat to his wealth of knowledge. His talks at the prestigious PRI Show and his written articles in leading magazines delve into cutting-edge topics like automotive ECM tuning, artificial intelligence, and neural networks. Bob's commitment to the advancement of engineering and technology professionals is further demonstrated by his dedicated volunteer work on SEMA's ETTN Select Committee.
Residing in Brooksville, Florida, Bob shares his home with his wife, Mandy, of 25 years, and their two teenage daughters, Sofia and Abigail. Despite his busy schedule, Bob finds solace in outdoor activities, volunteering, and cherished moments with his family by his side.
Sofia Morreale, the eldest daughter of Bob and Mandy, inherited her father's passion for cars from an early age. Growing up amidst the excitement of the race track, Sofia's fascination with racing and the automotive industry blossomed as she watched her father tear up the tracks in his C6 Corvette. At just 14, Sofia embarked on her own racing journey, starting with HPDE track events and piloting her Cadillac ATS before transitioning to a Mustang GT and now commanding the track with her Camaro SS 1LE.
Sofia's commitment to her passion was evident as she attended the Lucas Oil Racing School at ages 15 and 16, earning her full racing license. At 16, she acquired her first race car, a spec Miata, and ventured into various racing genres, impressing audiences with her skills on the drag strip and her unwavering dedication to road racing.
Collaborating with her father, Sofia is currently engaged in an ambitious project to build a race car from a salvaged Camaro, forging a bond that transcends the racetrack. Beyond racing, Sofia has seized opportunities to be a prominent voice in the automotive industry, advocating for causes like the RPM Act in Washington, D.C., alongside her father.
When she's not on the track or advocating for the automotive industry, Sofia finds joy in spending time with her family, friends, and beloved pets. Her studies in Digital Media and Design at Southeastern University complement her racing career, as she envisions a future where she continues to make her mark both on and off the track, serving as a dynamic and influential voice representing the automotive industry. Together, Bob and Sofia Morreale exemplify the power of family, passion, and perseverance in the world of automotive innovation and expertise.
