Established in 1954

CQMA club and racing facility have long played a part in quarter midget racing for kids in Northern California. Quarter midget racing is a fast-paced family sport that teaches children the meaning of sportsmanship -- win or lose -- fairness and discipline.

Our Track

Hidden from view behind Rio Linda High School in a grove of shade trees is one of the oldest and possibly finest dirt quarter midget race tracks in the country. Roy Hayer Memorial Race Track, named for a longtime quarter midget supporter, produces great racing programs.

Home of the Capitol Quarter Midget Association, the facilities include a 1/20 mile dirt racing surface, permanent timing and scoring tower, snack bar, permanent restrooms, shaded spectator stands and a large pit area.

Our Mission

The purpose of our club is to create and maintain a clean, safe, healthy sport, which may be enjoyed by all family members in a close relationship with good sportsmanship toward all.

To teach the younger generation about the proper handling of mechanical devices, coordination, self-reliance, alertness, and ability to handle motor-driven vehicles.

To impress upon the younger generation the idea of fairness, generosity, good sportsmanship, and a sense of responsibility, without envy of others.
​
To develop, direct, and promote the objectives of associated sanctioned Quarter Midget Clubs and their members on a National basis.

Races & Training

Races are held approximately twice a month during the racing season, which runs from March through November (weather permitting). In addition to the Dirt Shootout Series club races, CQMA also participates in the Monza Series and we have a Hayer and Penny Memorial race.

Training sessions are by appointment only at the track throughout the year weather permitting.  See our training page for more details.​
