About Evil Genius Racing And Race Car Fabrication

Located in West Sacramento, California, Evil Genius Racing (EGR) began business in 2003 under ownership of John Pagel. John is a longtime NASA road racer, certified welder and expert fabricator. Initially trained as a mathematician, John quickly found after college that he received more satisfaction putting metal together than putting numbers together. John's original plan to teach got diverted soon after college as John got involved in sports car racing.

After 15 years in the Automotive Parts and Service industry, including time at Mercedes, Mazda, Cadillac, BMW and Land Rover and owning his own shop for 5 years, John got fed up with the rat-race of large dealerships and dozens of employees.   Thus Evil Genius Racing was born.  The name coming from John’s thick glasses and unkempt hair, someone remarked that he looked like an Evil Genius……

EGR's shop is ideally situated to northern Californa race tracks: 1-hour from Infineon, 1.5 hours to Thunderhill and 2.5 hours to Laguna Seca, Reno-Fernley and the proposed Riverside Motorsports track in Merced.

John specializes in roll cage design and construction, part fabrication, racing suspensions and Mazda transmission rebuild services. John is one of 25 certified NASA safety inspectors in northern California who can perform annual race car inspections and issue race car logbooks.
