2026 SJQMA Membership Overview

SJQMA is built on families, teamwork, and tradition. Our racing season depends on members working together to ensure race days run smoothly and the club continues to grow. Every member plays a role—this is a shared commitment that goes beyond officers and board members.

Membership with SJQMA allows drivers to race at our facility and gives families a voice in club decisions. In return, member families are expected to participate in club operations and assist with the tasks that support our weekly race program. When everyone contributes, the entire SJQMA community benefits.
