ABOUT
Race Spark Academy
Race Spark Academy is a groundbreaking sim racing education program designed to ignite passion, discipline, and real-world readiness in the next generation of drivers.
Founded in Santa Clarita and expanding nationwide, our mission goes beyond racing. We help shape habits that will last a lifetime. Using professional-grade racing simulators with real torque-based steering wheels and pedals, our students engage their minds and bodies in every session. This is not just screen time it’s full-brain, full-body activity that builds coordination, motor control, focus, and mental sharpness.
Every session is designed to boost reflexes, concentration, and decision-making under pressure. These are the same skills athletes, pilots, and emergency responders rely on and we build them through fun, immersive driving experiences that kids love. At the same time, our students stay physically active while learning how real vehicles behave on the road.
Even Formula 1 teams and major motorsport organizations use simulators just like ours to train their drivers, develop strategies, and improve performance. This same technology is now accessible to your child through our carefully designed curriculum. Our students don’t just learn they compete. As part of the academy experience, they will have the opportunity to enter international sim racing tournaments, compete with drivers around the world, and celebrate their achievements with their peers and families.
Beyond our weekly training sessions, Race Spark Academy hosts weekend family events where parents are invited to experience the excitement firsthand. These events give families a chance to see their children’s progress, cheer them on, and even join in the fun. We organize friendly competitions like Parents vs. Students and Students vs. Police Officers, creating unforgettable memories while building mutual respect and community involvement.
But we don’t stop at racing. Our program includes complete safety training across all forms of modern mobility. Students learn how to handle not just cars, but also bicycles, e-bikes, scooters, and how to stay safe as pedestrians in today’s fast-paced world. They’ll gain a deep understanding of traffic laws, situational awareness, and how to be responsible, alert, and respectful citizens on the road.
We also prepare students for real-world milestones. Our curriculum is designed to build the knowledge, awareness, and habits that help students succeed on their DMV permit and license tests often with greater confidence and preparation than most teens ever receive.
Parents love Race Spark Academy because we combine exciting competition and racing dreams with the values that truly matter safety, responsibility, and personal growth. Whether your child wants to become a future race car driver or simply be a smarter, safer everyday commuter, we give them the mindset, skillset, and confidence to succeed.
We’re not just teaching kids how to drive we’re helping shape focused, respectful, and prepared young people for the future.

TESTIMONIALS
Real Voices. Real Impact.
I signed my son up just hoping he’d enjoy sim racing. What I didn’t expect was how much safer and more confident he became on his bike and around traffic. Race Spark Academy isn’t just fun — it’s essential. Every parent should know about this.
Leah Yurfset
My daughter used to think driving was just about speed — now she talks about mirror checks, braking points, and lane awareness. She’s learning real-life responsibility in a fun, high-tech environment. This isn’t a game — it’s preparation for life.
Roy Gold
I’ve seen firsthand how Race Spark Academy improves focus, discipline, and teamwork. One of my students said it’s the first time he felt like school connected with something real. This is what modern education should look like.
