This Saturday night, May 16th, the future stars of motorsports roll into North Georgia Speedway as the Mid South Mini Thunder Tour invades the Fastest 1/3 Mile in the South. Featuring fearless young drivers ranging from just 7 years old all the way up to 14, fans can expect an all-out, elbows-up battle from green flag to checkered flag.

The Mid South Mini Thunder Tour has quickly become one of the most exciting youth racing series in the Southeast, showcasing the next generation of racers looking to make their mark in the sport. From slide jobs to photo finishes, these young competitors know only one speed — wide open.
Joining the action Saturday night will be North Georgia Speedway’s exciting local divisions including the Atlanta Kubota Late Models, Liberty Racing Review 602 Late Models, CV Race Products 604 Late Models, Jasper Generators Open Wheel Modifieds, and the North Georgia Toyota Front Wheel Drives. With a stacked lineup from top to bottom, fans are guaranteed a full night of side-by-side racing action and hometown heroes battling it out under the lights.
