SLINGSHOT RACING

Slingshots Are Coming Back!

Slingshots used to run regularly on our track and we have a few adult racers that actually started their career there. We haven't had a slingshot race since before 2020 and we are so excited to be bringing them back!

What Are Slingshots?

Slingshot racing is the perfect way for kids to experience the thrill of motorsports in a safe, fun, and affordable environment. Designed for younger drivers, Slingshots are compact race cars built for dirt tracks, offering a fantastic introduction to competitive racing.  

With simplified rules and spec components, kids can focus on building their skills and having fun, while parents enjoy the low cost of entry and maintenance. Junior classes are specially designed for ages 6 to 13, giving young drivers the chance to race just like the pros!  

Slingshot racing is more than just a sport—it’s a community. It’s a place for kids to make friends, learn teamwork, and build confidence, all while having a blast on the track.  

Get started today and help your child take the first step into the exciting world of racing!

Business Opportunities

We are inviting businesses to participate in the exciting world of racing and supporting some young up-and-coming racers. There are several opportunities available for you to get involved!

Have your business own a car and have it completely wrapped in your corporate scheme. You could then encourage your kids, employees' kids, or clients' kids drive in it.

An alternative to owning a car could also be to sponsor a kid to be able to drive in someone else's car.

Another way to support would be to sponsor races or contribute prizes. 

Volunteer Opportunities

We are seeking volunteers to assist specifically with this program and would greatly appreciate your support! We need people to help kids on and off the track, to assist with maintenance, and to help promote the program.

​

We can't wait to see where this could go! Help us make it take off and be a huge success for our young people, the future of racing.
