Junior Classes Menu
J Runabout
AX Runabouts are for 12-year-olds and up. The AX classes are unique in that there is no upper age limit, so 12-year-olds may be competing against adults. The AXR class allows young drivers to gain experience to better prepare them for the larger and faster classes. AXR also works well for those returning to runabout racing, or those who primarily want to have fun.
