Registration is open for racers planning to compete in the Summit USRA Weekly Racing Series during the 2025 calendar year.

The first 300 competitors to purchase a USRA Competitor License will receive a gift card from Summit Racing Equipment valued at $50.

All competitors at a USRA-sanctioned event must possess either a USRA Competitor License or USRA Temporary License to participate in the event.

Competitors will be awarded national, regional and track points at USRA-sanctioned events beginning February 21 and ending September 28.

In the USRA Modified, USRA Stock Car, USRA B-Mod, USRA Hobby Stock and USRA Tuner divisions, 100 additional national points will be awarded to those racing at the Summit USRA Nationals scheduled for October 1-4.

In the USRA Limited Mod and Sunoco USRA Factory Stock divisions, 100 additional national points will be awarded to competitors racing at the USRA Southern Nationals (dates to be announced).

The cost of a USRA Competitor License for the 2025 calendar year is $130 for Modifieds; $110 for Stock Cars or Late Models; $100 for B-Mods, Hobby Stocks, Limited Mods or Factory Stocks; and $60 for Tuners.

All licenses fees will increase by $20 beginning March 3, 2025. Purchase directly from the USRA by calling (515) 832-6000 or online at usraracing.com/register.

Competitors may also download the application at usraracing.com/downloads, and then print and mail your completed form with a check or credit card information.

A service fee of $5 applies to all credit card transactions. There are no refunds for any license purchase.

Alternatively, drivers may purchase a USRA Temporary License (temp license) for $10 which is valid for one (1) event only. Drivers opting to purchase a temp license will earn the same points as those with a USRA Competitor License. The purchase of a temp license does not apply toward the cost of a USRA Competitor License if one is purchased later.

USRA Competitor Licenses must be purchased directly from the USRA. Temp licenses must be purchased from the racetrack. Racetracks do not sell USRA Competitor Licenses, and the USRA does not sell temp licenses.
