Youth MinistocksYouth Ministocks have been at Stratford for as long as Adult Ministocks, initially the Youth would have a run at the start and end of the meeting. Five years ago, after increased interest in the class the Youth were allowed to take part in the race program in their own right and since then numbers have risen greatly. Most nights it is not uncommon to see over thirty of the little cars line up. Although the cars look similar to Stockcars, contact is prohibited but with the sheer weight of numbers, it is not uncommon to see contact in the class. The Youth class caters for drivers aged between 12 and 16 years of age and is a great way for them to learn race craft and car control. The lightweight cars are powered by a donor car's engine no larger than 1200cc and along with standard running gear from that vehicle they can be as cheap as $3000 dollars to build and serve as a great feeder class with many competitors moving on to the faster classes after a few years racing. Ministock competitors please note that Roger Dettling is your contact for your race numbers, not your class rep. Class Sponsor:
