Exciting News: Be a Beta-Tester for Our Next Red Racer Book!


New Book Coming Soon!

We have a totally new book coming soon! And you know what that means—it’s Beta-Testing time!

For those new to Red Racer Books, beta-testing is a core part of our process. I want our books to be as authentic as possible—made by fans, for fans—and that’s where you come in!

Here’s How It Works:

Once you sign up, I’ll select a small group of participants for this round of beta testing. Selected families will receive:

  • A digital preview of the book
  • A set of questions for you
  • A few fun questions for your little ones too

This time around, the window for reviewing is limited to January 24-27, so please only sign up if you’re able to commit to providing feedback within that timeframe.

The sign-up deadline is January 20, so don’t miss your chance to participate! Your input will help us make this book the best it can be.

As a thank you, beta-testers will be credited in the acknowledgments section of the final printed version of the book.

A Little About This New Book:

This book tells the inspiring story of a 9-year-old driver’s first season in karting—a thrilling start to a successful racing career. It highlights the courage, determination, and resilience needed to navigate the world of competitive racing at a young age, with just a touch of MAGIC!

That’s all I can reveal for now, but I can promise this: It’s going to feel different from our previous books, with artwork from a new illustrator (more to come soon!).

Privacy Commitment:
To participate in the program, you’ll need to commit to not disclosing any details about the book publicly until I give the green flag. We appreciate your help in keeping it under wraps until launch!

Here’s how you can sign up

1. Send me a fresh email to Hello@RedRacerBooks.com with the subject line: Beta-Tester Sign Up 2025

2. In your email, please include:

  • Your Name
  • Location (general area—no need for a full address)
  • Kids’ Ages (if applicable)
  • Why You Love Racing
  • Favorite Book from Red Racer Books
  • Availability: The digital version of the book will be shared on Nov 6th. Are you able to review the book and provide feedback between January 24-27?

Please submit your sign-up email by January 20 to be considered. Once I receive your email, I’ll let you know if you’re selected—but don’t worry if not, there will be more opportunities soon!

Thank you for being part of our journey to inspire young race fans everywhere!
