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:
