Thundering Valley Raceway, Inc. is located at 377 Palmyra Road in Saint Albans, Maine, just seven miles from exit 157 off Interstate 95. TVR is the first design-built modified kart racing facility in the State of Maine. The one-fifth mile, tri-oval has all the amenities of a modem era racing facility - lighted asphalt track and pit area, grandstands, scoring tower, parts building, concessions, restrooms, the AMB Electronic Scoring and Timing System, and ample parking. Modified kart racing in the fastest growing motorsports venue and the only one that allows the whole family to actively participate. Thundering Valley Raceway holds racing events for drivers starting at age 5. Racers come from all over New England to participate in eight divisions, racing in heat and feature races for trophies and points. Check the schedule and division page to see where you may fit in to our program. We invite all racers and race fans to our facility to have a great time and see some exciting racing. Contact us anytime if you have questions or are interested in getting into racing karts. What's New: We had a good turn-out for practice on Saturday, May 3rd but it started to drizzle late in the afternoon. Unfortunately, that drizzle, followed by rain, continued all day on Sunday, May 4th and forced us to cancel all activities at the track for the day. These races will be made up later in the season. There will be an open practice on Saturday, May 10th from 10 AM to 1 PM. The Coca Cola Spring Classic will take place on Sunday, May 11th. We will have special gifts for all the Moms in attendance for our first race day. After all, it is Mother's Day! The Elite Minicup All Stars will be here for the first of their five visits during the season. Gates open at 9:30 AM, practice from 10-12 and racing starts at 12:30 PM. The new TVR sweatshirts have arrived and are ready for purchase. They have an added line on the logo to celebrate our tenth season. Sizes available include Youth - small, medium and large, and Adult - small through 2X large. They are available at the parts building. New this season are Mechanic Gloves from TRP. They are also available at the parts window! Just a reminder that a "Punch Card" of pit passes is available this season - 12 entries for the price of 10. These are available at the registration booth. We still have some sponsorship opportunities available for our 10th anniversary season. Contact us if you are interested or know of anyone else that might be. Prices are very reasonable.
We currently have the Animal engines in
stock. Please call ahead to order for the division you will
be racing in for the 2008 season. Jim Parent from Parent Photo was here recently and plans to make a return visit before the end of the season. His pix can be viewed at www.parentphoto.lifepics.com and when prompted, enter the words "Parent Photo". He does a great job getting those action photographs! For our weekly racers, the track is available for rent. Cost for a three hour time block is $100.00, with a kart limit of 3. Each additional kart will be charged $34.00. Call the track line to make reservations. Remember that TVR is a full service kart shop, too. We try our best to have any part you may need for your racing machine and if we don't have it in stock, we'll get it for you real quick! Nate is also available to help any racer set up, scale and adjust your kart. For more information, check out the most current offering of the News from the Valley on the newsletter page of this web site! Shop Hours are by appointment only during the off season.
