Losi Local Racing Program
New for 2026, the Losi Local Racing Program is designed to support local and emerging tracks by lowering the barrier to entry and making racing more accessible. Through direct support from Horizon, weâre helping more tracks bring racing to their communities and grow participation at the local level. More details will be shared as we finalize the program.
Racer Payout Program (RPP)
RPP is our cash contingency program designed to reward racers from the Sportsman level all the way to the Pro ranks. Compete at qualifying events, reach the podium, and earn real cash payouts for your performance.
Itâs our way of giving back to racers who drive competition and passion in the hobby.
Event Sponsorships and Product Donations
Weâve established a dedicated fund to support local events through product donations and sponsorship opportunities. From club gatherings to larger community events, weâre committed to helping grow the hobby at the grassroots level.
