Hoover Racing would like to welcome our newest sponsor! 

Racing is a Hoover family tradition.  It all began in the 1950’s in Pennsylvania at Williams Grove Speedway, where Ken’s dad, Henry “Pap” Hoover, began building race cars.  Ken and his brothers helped him and sometimes got to drive them. 

In 2003 Ken and Linda Hoover established their own racing business in Rancho Cordova, CA with a single car driven jointly by grandson Joey Hoover and friend April Halliday Sullivan.  Since then the team has grown to three race cars in 2009.  Drivers that year were grandsons Joey, Richie Hoover and friend  Craig Holsted

  Our company goal is to run two(2) Midget Lites and be established as a force to be reckoned with for the 2012 season!

We have updated our cars last year.  Richie's engine has been updated and  should have more power this new year.

 Joey had a new Suzuki engine installed real late last season and that engine is now broke in and ready to run more RPM's.

Hoover Racing is looking to a more successful year in 2012.


We’re grateful to our sponsors who make it possible for us to compete in the BCRA Midget Lite division.  To learn more about them, click on the individual logos shown below.  We encourage you to use their services.
