Lehigh Valley Grand Prix provides the ultimate competitive go kart racing experience by offering adult and junior go kart league racing.  Call 1.610.432.RACE for details!

Racing Leagues/ Pop Up Comps

Racing Leagues are a fun and competitive opportunity to race at Lehigh Valley Grand Prix.  Unlike standard races, the racing leagues are based on position, not best laps.  The Junior League is held on Saturday mornings, and the Adult League is held on Tuesday evenings. Junior Leagues are available to ages 8 to 17.

Pop Up Comps are a new program launched in 2018.  Random dates will be announced randomly throughout the year.  Be sure to follow our Facebook page to keep up to date on the happenings!

LVGP will also be offering driving clinics for those interested in sharpening their skills prior to the league. E-mail ryan@lehighvalleygrandprix.com for more information about competitive go kart racing.

JR Racing Leagues

Get your kid into the thrill of motorsports racing at Lehigh Valley Grand Prix!

The Junior Racing Program is designed for all abilities. Drivers must be 8 to 17 years of age. League racers will participate in a qualifying round in Week 1 to determine their appropriate racing group for the 6 week league program.

Each week will consist of a 8 minute qualifier and a 20 minute feature race. LVGP is the only indoor karting facility in the Mid Atlantic region to offer position racing in their features!

The team at LVGP takes a great deal of pride in developing our participants into great racers on and off the track. If your child has a love of motorsports, than this program is a great way to introduce them into competitive racing without the significant financial and time commitment of other racing options.
