Be Part of Something Real: Support the Mid-Am Racing Series in 2026

The Mid-Am Racing Series had one hell of a 2025. From our biggest car counts in years to a surge in fan engagement, we proved again what can happen when racers, fans, and sponsors come together to keep short-track racing strong.

But 2026 is going to turn heads. Our schedule, our advertising, and our presentation are being elevated in ways that will surprise even our most loyal followers.

Here’s the deal — we operate lean. Really lean. What most organizations do with twenty people, we do with three. And we’re proud of that efficiency. But it also means we rely heavily on partners who believe in the same mission we do: affordable, competitive, family-driven racing across the Midwest.

Over the past few months, we’ve reached out to several hundred contingency sponsors — and we still have about 500 more to go. And to be honest? It’s been quiet. Crickets. That’s why when you see a business logo on our page or website, it’s not just a name or a sticker — it’s a company that actually stepped up. It’s someone who believed in this series and the people who make it happen.

We’re not asking for massive checks — we’re asking for support that makes a difference. Every contribution helps us improve payouts, expand driver and fan engagement, and keep the sport accessible for everyone who loves it.

If you or your business wants to join us, now’s the time. Let’s make 2026 a season that proves what grassroots racing can be when the right people come together.
