Out With The Old, In With The New

The old playground has officially been retired, and the new equipment is currently being installed! We are dedicated to making the track a top-tier experience for the whole family, but we need your help to cross the finish line.

HOW YOU CAN HELP: We are calling on our racing family and the local community to help us complete this project. Every dollar raised goes directly toward providing a safe, fun, and updated environment for the children who visit our facility every weekend.

There are two ways to contribute:

Direct Donation: Call the MIR office at 301-884-7223.

Let’s build something amazing for the next generation of racers!
