Come join for a fun day of racing as a competitor or spectator. Watch some of the most talented drivers duke it out at the famous Perris Auto Speedway where winners are made.
Quarter midget racing features small-scale, safe race cars for kids aged 5–16, competing on oval tracks roughly 1/20 mile in length. Emphasis is placed on safety (roll cages, multi-point harnesses, etc.) and family involvement.
Arrive and Drive
SoCal QMA hosts arrive and drive events throughout the season to allow kids from 5 to 15 to test drive a real quarter midget race car. We provide the safety gear such as helmets, race suits, gloves, etc. All the driver needs to bring is close-toed shoes, long pants, and hair tied back (if long). All of our cars have safety belts and the throttle is controlled to an appropriate speed for driver’s age and experience.
Club Races
A typical club race at SoCal QMA is a full-day, family-oriented event designed to give kids an authentic racing experience in a safe and structured environment. Quarter midget racing requires family member involvement in order for the sport to be successful.
Basic member duties include: track set up and break down, scorers, lap keepers, flaggers, safety, track directors, pit crew, and operators of a raffle booth on major race events.
A typical race day schedule:
- Track set up
- Practice
- Driver’s meeting
- Heat Races
- Main Event
- Trophies
- Track break down
All members will have the opportunity to learn and grow to support our young racers.
Rookie Training
Drivers can enter rookie training at 4½, but must be 5 to race in a competitive class
All new drivers, regardless of actual age, begin at the Red Rookie level and progress to Blue Rookie before advancing to competitive classes
Red Rookie (with a red restrictor plate): Focuses on teaching core skills: safety, flag etiquette, pit procedures, track entry/exit, lining up, and response to officials.
Blue Rookie (with a blue restrictor plate): Builds race skills and confidence at higher speeds.
Equipment & Membership
Must own or rent a quarter midget car and have full safety gear: helmet, fire suit, gloves, arm restraints, neck collar/restraint (e.g., HANS), and Race receiver with earbuds .
Each family must be active members of the club and USAC/NASCAR Youth Series, maintaining annual memberships.
This structured Red → Blue → Competitive progression ensures young drivers learn the fundamentals of safety, race awareness, car control, and respect for rules before racing at speed. All drivers across USAC-sanctioned clubs follow this same path.
