The Kansas City Region teams up with the Kansas Region to form the Kaw Valley Race Group (KVRG). Click here to visit the dedicated KVRG website and to register for events.

Kansas City Region has a strong Club Racing program. Our home track is Heartland Park, Topeka, where we host events in co-operation with the Kansas Region SCCA. KC Region members also race at the other tracks of the Midwest Division of the SCCA: Gateway International Raceway (St Louis), Memphis Motorsport Park (Memphis, TN), Hallett Motor Racing Circuit (Hallett, OK), Mid-America Motorplex (South of Omaha, NE), and Motorsports Park Hastings (Hastings, NE).

Drivers may compete for the MidWest Division National Championship (national races), MidAm Championship (regional races) or the IT Tour Championship (regional races for Improved Touring classes only). The top drivers in each SCCA division compete for the title of National Champion at the SCCA National Runoffs® held at Heartland Park Topeka each October.

Getting Started  

Most people agree that a season or two spent autocrossing (Solo), to get a feel for car control (or lack thereof), is a good idea before starting roadracing proper. To get a taste of the racetrack, you can take your regular road (or autocross) car to one of our Performance Driving Experiences (PDX) held at Heartland Park.
     When you are ready to take the plunge, you will need to:

1. Find a car. If you don't want to buy or build a car at the outset, they can be rented both from commercial schools and from individual club members.
2. Get a physical exam from an MD. Any doctor can do this, but the Club can put you in touch with some whose fees are more reasonable than most.
3. Obtain a novice permit.
4. Attend two SCCA approved drivers schools. Most tracks hold at least one drivers school per year. SCCA National Office can provide a list of approved commercial schools that can be used to satisfy the requirements for one of the schools or more.

For more information, contact the Race Group Chairman, or come to a Club meeting and talk to any of the Race Group.
