Thankful for an absolutely mega year with amazing business partners and the best customers on the planet.

This was another great year of representing the USF Pro Championships as the sole engine supplier. We are honored to be a part of it.

We also added 3 more SCCA Runoffs National Championships to our count, Jonathan Kotyk in Formula F, Russel in Formula X and Allear in Formula Continental.

Happy Birthday to my son Logan! It is so gratifying watching you navigate this world. You have an extremely good grasp on reality and that along with many other things has made you into the man you are today. I really enjoy spending time with you. Working, golfing, traveling, and soon to be motorcycle riding together is always a good time. You have become a serious asset to Elite Engines Inc. The respect you have earned with the Road to Indy teams and drivers is not just from your technical skills but from the kind, cool, level headed person that you are! I’m proud of you and hope you have a fantastic day!

Next race happening here!

Did you know: New Jersey Motorsports Park - NJMP is located on 500 acres next to the Millville Municipal Airport, which opened in 1941 as the Millville Army Air Field - a gunnery school for fighter pilots training for WWII in the new P-47 Thunderbolt.

The track named its marquee 2.25-mile racetrack “Thunderbolt Raceway,” while the 1.9-mile road course – Lightning Raceway – is named after the P-38 Lightning.

Looking forward to racing at this historic venue this weekend!

Breaking news: STATEMENT FROM INDYCAR

After careful consideration, including regular communication with our event promoters, health officials, and the city administrations in our respective race markets regarding COVID-19, we have made the decision to cancel all NTT INDYCAR Series events through April. This begins with the Firestone Grand Prix of St. Petersburg which was to begin today and run through Sunday, March 15 and continues through the AutoNation INDYCAR Challenge at Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas which was to take place April 24-26. Although we are disappointed to delay the start to this INDYCAR season and will miss our incredible fans who support us each year in St. Petersburg, Birmingham, Long Beach, and Austin, the safety of our fans, participants, staff, partners, and media will always remain our top priority. We will continue to coordinate with public health experts and government officials as we determine the appropriate plans for resuming our schedule."
