Central Indiana Quarter Midget Association

Mini Indy's Annual Novice Day is this weekend Saturday, April 11th 10:00am – how ever long it takes to give everyone their opportunity.

The following is a link to a flyer with more information:

Anyone interested in Quarter Midget racing is welcome to attend and find out what all the excitement is about. Our novice trainers and other experienced club members will be available to help kids 5 - 16 years old to experience the thrill of driving a racecar.

This is also a great opportunity to get all of your questions answered. If you already have purchased a quarter midget racecar, we will do the required safety checks and try to help answer your maintenance and set up questions.

A lot of you on this board are probably very familiar with quarter midget racing. I suspect some of you are former quarter midget racers yourself. Quarter midget racing is a competitive motor sports organization for children ages 5 – 16. The racing has been around since the 30’s and many former, current, and future stars have gotten their start in quarter midgets.

The racing environment at Mini Indy is about children and family with drivers developing many positive skills that stay with them throughout life and their racing careers.

The Mini-Indy Speedway is located just northeast of downtown Indianapolis on the Indiana State Fair Grounds. The concrete track is nice and wide with banking of 7 degrees on the straights and 9 degrees in the corners, just like the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. When the Mini Indy track was constructed the Indianapolis Motor Speedway donated bricks to be sold to help pay for the construction of our track. It holds the distinction of having the largest Quarter Midget event ever with over 1000 cars showing up to compete in the 2003 Eastern Grands.

For those of you interested in getting their young drivers involved or are interested in learning more about quarter midget racing at Mini Indy, checks us out at www.miniindyspeedway.org

The following is a link to our 2009 schedule. Take the time, stop by, support our young driver, and be prepared to witness some exciting racing by kids that surely will one day be stars.

Rumor has it that Dick Wolfsie of WISH-TV Channel 8 will be there doing his live segments in the early morning.

Hope to see you there.
