What is Quarter Midget Racing?
Quarter Midget racing is a family-oriented sport that involves racing in
specially prepared cars. The cars, rules and safety procedures are designed
specifically for kids.
They race on oval tracks approximately 1/20 of a mile in length. A child who
is 5 to 16 years of age can race. Safety features include full roll cages,
multi-point seat harnesses, full-face helmets, and other gear. This sport has
fewer injuries than little-league football.
The National Quarter Midget Association is constantly reviewing and
evaluating safety rules to ensure that quarter midget racing remains a safe
and competitive sport. The racing environment is all about children and
family fun. Not only do kids learn valuable skills and sportsmanship, but they
also make new friends. Mom and Dad will make new friends too.

We have a couple of new scorers that have been learning the process in 2008. Can you help the club by joining our scorers? The quality racing in 2008 along with a little shade over our grandstands is clearly leading to an increasing numbers of spectators for our events. This bodes well for new members in the years to come who were first exposed to our sport and club as spectators. And, our concessions sales reflect this enthusiasm in the grandstands as of late; but our club needs help during our events in the concession building. Can you help our club by volunteering some time to our concessions? **** Official TKQMA Photographer **** Kayla Riley-Lohness has been retained as the Official Track Photographer for 2008 TKQMA events. Ms. Lohness-Reese captured some of the very best of our sport, members, and racing action in her 2007 pictures. Expect more of the same in 2008 along with a fitting recap of our year when the fall weather ends our racing season.
