The racing world isn’t just about speed; it’s also about nurturing the next generation of talent. Have you heard about the Youth Racer Program sponsored by Fun Track Dayz? This fantastic initiative is designed for young riders aged 13 to 17 who have some experience on the track or hold a race license from any recognized racing organization in the USA. It offers aspiring racers a unique opportunity to train under seasoned instructors at no cost during select events at Thunderhill East and West, helping them develop their skills on larger race tracks.
Program Overview: A Pathway to Professional Racing
So, what’s the main goal of the Youth Racer Program? It aims to transition young riders from go-karting into the more challenging world of road racing. Thunderhill Raceway Park, a premier venue that welcomes 13-year-olds, serves as the perfect backdrop for this initiative. With the expertise of Fun Track Dayz instructors at their disposal, participants can expect to boost their racing techniques and gain confidence on bigger bikes—starting with 250cc motorcycles at Thunderhill East and 125cc bikes at Thunderhill West.
When young racers enter the program, they all begin in the Novice (C)-Group. This initial phase includes a structured lead and follow session, helping them get acquainted with the track layout and learn the best racing lines. As riders show improvement, they may be promoted to more advanced groups, ensuring a tailored and progressive learning experience. It’s all about providing each youth racer with the guidance and support they need to thrive.
Requirements and Registration Process
Now, if you’re wondering how to get involved, here’s what you need to know: to participate in the Youth Racer Program, young riders must meet specific requirements and follow the registration process. Interested individuals should reach out via email at least two weeks before the desired Thunderhill event to secure their spot. If that’s not possible, don’t worry! Potential participants can still register on the day of the event at the Day Of Registration Table, as long as a parent or guardian is present to sign the necessary waivers.
This program places a strong emphasis not only on skill development but also on safety and mentorship. Each young racer will be paired with an AFM licensed instructor who will assess their performance and provide personalized coaching. This one-on-one support is essential for ensuring that each rider feels comfortable and confident as they navigate the complexities of competitive racing.
Looking Ahead: Future Prospects for Young Racers
The vision for the Youth Racer Program stretches beyond immediate skill enhancement; it’s about cultivating a new generation of racers who will lead the sport into the future. Fun Track Dayz firmly believes that by investing in youth, they’re not only nurturing individual talent but also securing the longevity and evolution of motorcycle racing.
As the program continues to expand, young racers will have even more opportunities to connect with industry professionals and participate in advanced racing clinics. This holistic approach to training and mentorship is sure to open doors for aspiring racers, equipping them with the tools and opportunities they need to succeed in the highly competitive world of motorsports. Are you ready to rev up your racing career? The future looks bright!
