The Collegiate Racing Series has been growing rapidly, and with that growth comes exciting new partnerships and opportunities for our members. We are thrilled to announce our official partnership with Summit Racing, which now gives CRS members access to exclusive discounts on everything sold through their platform. From performance parts and safety gear to tools and accessories, this partnership makes it easier and more affordable for our community to build, race, and compete at the highest level.

On top of that, CRS has partnered with DriveSmart to provide free roadside assistance to all student members. Whether you’re dealing with a flat tire, a dead battery, or even need a tow, this benefit ensures peace of mind and added value to your CRS membership. We want our drivers and supporters to feel safe and supported both on and off the track, and this partnership helps us deliver on that promise.

We’re also excited to launch the CRS Sim Racing Series, an all-new initiative that gives students the chance to compete virtually for large cash prizes and exciting giveaways. This series allows our members to sharpen their racecraft in the off-season, connect with fellow drivers across the country, and test themselves in high-stakes competition on the digital stage. It’s another way we’re expanding the CRS ecosystem while continuing to reward passion and skill.

Lastly, the Motorsports Engineering Program continues to exceed expectations. Students are not only learning about advanced topics like vehicle dynamics, aerodynamics, suspension geometry, and CFD analysis, but they’re also putting that knowledge into practice by building CRS-spec race cars in the lab. The combination of classroom theory and hands-on experience has been a game-changer, and we’re proud to see future motorsports leaders growing right here in our program.

The momentum behind CRS is stronger than ever, and with these new partnerships, programs, and opportunities, we’re excited to see what’s ahead. Thank you for being part of this journey and for helping us continue to push collegiate motorsports forward.

Make sure to sign up for our latest competition schools for 2025!

All the best,
