The Cajun Sprinters Association is an elite sprint car racing club based mainly in the southeast region of the United States. This club is also an entry-level organization that is strictly family oriented. It was founded in 1990 by six people: Larry Todd, Chuck Todd, P.O. Schmidt, Denise Todd, Abe Davis and Buddy Hebert and given the title Southern Thunder Racing Tour.

             The first race was at St. Tammany Speedway in 1991 with six cars present. The Cajun Sprinters Association wasn’t incorporated until 1992. The first president was David Heintz and the second president was Abe Davis. The Cajun Sprinters Association is governed by a board of members elected by the clubs own members. Joining the Cajun Sprinters Association is simple, anyone can become a member by racing a car with the Cajun Sprinters Association and becoming a stockholder.

             The Cajun Sprinters Association travels to races in Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and Louisiana. The racing season for the Cajun Sprinters usually starts in April and ends in late October.

             There are strict rules and policies that govern every aspect of the association from behavior to car specifications. A general  meeting is held at the end of every season in October to set the rules for the following season. The engine rules are locked in for 3 years. Changes can only be made every 3 years and are also voted on by the members to better the club itself.

             The show put on by the Cajun Sprinters is a “must see” for any race fan. The club has also had assorted sponsors for different things but Jimmy Smith McCreary has been a sponsor for tires from day one.

             The drivers of the Cajun Sprint cars are devoted in every way possible but their main devotion is to the fans. During intermission at every racing event the Cajun Sprint car drivers all go over to the spectator stands and throw “goodies” to the kids and even sign a few autographs.

             Every race night is filled with lots of action. Shows include 3 or 4 heat races, a four abreast salute to the fans, where the cars go four wide before a 25 lap feature race that will have the hair on your neck standing on end and you sitting on the edge of your seat! A Cajun Sprinter event is nothing less than exciting and will leave fans begging for more.
