It is with pride and joy that CRS has officially graduated our first class of Competition Licensed (provisional) students for the 2026 racing season!

Big shoutout to all of our partners and sponsors that made this happen! We cannot wait to follow these students on their racing journey to glory and speed!

Congratulations to all!

Mike is the best!

CRS Leadership Goes MSF2

Not only did we have the ultimate joy of graduating our first class of licensed drivers, our staff and leadership of CRS completed their MSF2 Racing Instructor License so we can all coach, mentor, and help students get into racing even easier.

We’re leveling up to ensure we provide the best ladder system for students 12-25!

Todd and John showing us the ropes!

Records Set and History Made!

On May 18th, FARAUSA helped one of the youngest competition drivers complete his license to race competitively. CRS has built the best ladder program for students who’ve never driven and students who have gone through karting, quarter midget, or any type of youth racing.

Congrats to Joseph ‘eddi’ Saddington for making history as our youngest student ever! His first race will be Miami 250 at Homestead in August to complete his full Competition Racing license!

John, Todd, Trish, David, Carlos, and Eddi (12)

Rinse and Repeat - We Want YOU in the Seat!

CRS will be at Atlanta Motorsports Park (AMP) June 14/15 to license even more students! If you’re in the South East, you won’t want to miss this opportunity of a lifetime at deep discounts for CRS Members.

Students practicing restarts and real race simulation wheel-to-wheel!

Our vision to lower the costs of racing, help students get their license to race wheel-to-wheel, and have the best times of our lives together is being executed with excellence. We could not do it without amazing humans from FARAUSA.

Core memories achieved!

We’ll see you on the track!

Best,
