The Jr Leagues at Lehigh Valley Grand Prix have become a showcase for some of the best Jr drivers in indoor karting.  Each week it is truly amazing to watch these kids race in 20 minute, wheel to wheel racing, features!  The program attracts kids from all different racing experience levels and provides a great racing experience for everyone!

“We have kids that race sling shots, quarter midgets and outdoor go karts that use the league as a way to keep their skills sharp in the off-season.  We also have participants that have never raced or driven a vehicle in their life!  It is exciting to watch them all improve over the 8 week program,” said Kyle Lick, assistant competition director.

The winter league had 3 classes for the competition.  The league started in mid January and ran until March 3rd.  Each week for 8 weeks the participants would race in a 5 minute qualifier followed by a 20 minute feature.  The fastest qualifier would start on the pole position for the feature race.  The Spring League will begin on April 14th and run for 8 consecutive weeks.  The cost is $175.

We would like to give a big congratulations to all of the Winter League participants and parents and we hope to see you in the Spring league!!  Here are the final results from the Winter League.
