Kid's Spring National Charity Race: Kids Racing for Kids

It is time to 'rev' up the car, midget car that is. This Saturday, Children race in Quarter Midget cars that are a scaled-down (approximately 1/4 scale) version of an actual midget-racer on oval tracks that are approximately 1/20th of a mile.

Quarter Midget Racing is a family oriented sport for children ages 5 to 16. Teaching the life skills of safety, competition, sportsmanship the North Georgia Quarter Midget Association provides a safe and rewarding first racing experience and provides a memorable family sporting activity.

Safety is number one, and drivers participate in a safety class before racing. Quarter Midget Racing was started to develop sportsmanship in the children while also providing a family oriented racing activity. In recognition of the drivers, trophies are awarded at Regional, State, and National events. No cash prizes are awarded.

Quarter Midget racing is not a "drop off your kid" kind of sport, but an involved family sport. The events schedule is as follows:

Registration 7:30 am - 8:30 am

Saftey Instructions 7:00 am - 8:30 am

Race - 9:00 am
