Racing career

DiSavino became interested in racing when his parents obtained free tickets to an Arena Racing USA event near Richmond, Virginia when he was eight. (He is from Chesterfield, Virginia, which is in the Richmond metropolitan area.) When he was 13, DiSavino would begin arena racing and then race late models for the first time at age 15.[1]

After competing in a CARS Late Model Stock Tour event at Dominion Raceway early in 2019, DiSavino III signed with Win-Tron Racing to make his debut in the ARCA Menards Series at Elko Speedway in July of that year.[2] He would score a top-10 finish in his ARCA debut after qualifying twelfth. He ran one more race later in the year at IRP, where he crashed out and finished 16th.

It was announced on January 21, 2020, that DiSavino would return to Win-Tron to run a part-time schedule of ARCA races in their No. 32 again,[3] along with making his Truck Series debut at the series' new race at Richmond Raceway, his home track.[4] It is Win-Tron's first time fielding a Truck Series team by themselves since 2015, when they fielded the No. 35 Toyota. The team had a presence in the series through partnerships with both SS-Green Light Racing and AM Racing in 2016 and 2017 and then again with Hill Motorsports in the season-opening Daytona race at the start of the season. No truck number was announced in the press release, although DiSavino's consultant (PMG Motorsports Management) and sponsor (Bud's Plumbing, Heating & Air Conditioning) posted images of his truck on Facebook, which had the No. 32 on it, Win-Tron's number in ARCA. The number belonged to Reaume Brothers Racing in 2019, but they dropped it for the 2020 season as a result of them switching one of their three trucks to the No. 00, opening the door for Win-Tron to pick up the number and use it for their restarted truck team with DiSavino III.
