We've started this Organization as a way to help get our message out. Support Minnesota Sprint Car Teams, Drivers and Tracks! We're a group of fans that plan to raise money through fundraisers and donations and give back to, and grow, the sport we love.

Businesses and individuals who support race teams, drivers and tracks are undoubtedly the backbone of our sport. We in NO WAY want to infringe
on those relationships. Our goal is to be an outlet for fans to be able to contribute to their favorite sport, drivers and tracks in a more meaningful way than they otherwise would or could. There is power in numbers. And we hope to grow those numbers. Numbers of fans in the seats. Numbers of cars on track. Numbers of Drivers/Teams. Numbers of shows that we can attend. Numbers of happy track owners/promoters, etc.


Lofty goals we know. Any "Organization" that was founded at 5:30am after Turn 3 and Hy-Vee breakfast on the north side camping lots of the Fairlane Bowl in Knoxville, Iowa during the 52nd Annual Knoxville Nationals (better than at the Elephant Run though) probably shouldn't set such high expectations for themselves. We just to hope to support, grow and most importantly enjoy the great tradition that is Sprint Car Racing in Minnesota.

We are starting very modestly by selling some stickers with our logo on them. You can message us here, email us at [email protected] or follow us on Twitter @MinnesotaMafia. 100% of the funds raised will go directly back to support Sprint Car racing and related charities.

We have helped to support The Jeff Gordon Foundation's "Kick-It" kickball game at Silver Dollar Speedway's 59th Annual Gold Cup in Chico California in support of childrens cancer research where Jackson County boy Jim Pomerenke of Stepping Stone Genetics (Huge supporter of sprint car racing and admitted Sprint Car Junkie himself) is the primary sponsor. We are supporting the Loren Barstad Memorial Race at Jackson Speedway on September 29th (check out the post here on hoseheads http://www.hoseheadforums.com/forum.cfm?ThreadID=71236 or go to http://www.jacksonspeedway.com/ or our facebook page for details) .

Every penny raised will be put back into Sprint Car racing in Minnesota. Like us on Facebook at http://www.facebook.com/TheMinnesotaMafia?ref=ts or follow us on Twitter @MinnesotaMafia. If you are interested in purchasing a sticker please e-mail us at [email protected] or direct message us on Facebook and Twitter. Stickers are $5 and we will gladly mail them to you. Pass the word along to your friends if you like our message and help us spread the word. See you at the track!
