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 this year are grandsons Joey, Richie Hoover and Craig Holsted

  Our company goal is to establish Hoover Racing as a force to be reckoned with for the 2011 season!

We have updated our cars last year.  Richie and Craig's engine have been updated and both should have more power this new year.  Since Richie's car had a hard wreck last Sept. 25th at Placerville he will be driving the Black car that Joey drove last year.

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.
