Midian Nascarts Mission Statement

The purpose of this unit is to furnish the Midian Nascarts spirit and atmosphere to the ceremonials and parades of the Midian Shriners and for the Nobility of the Shrine, thereby adding interest to the Midian Shriners.  To promote good fellowship and a true Masonic fraternalism among the members of the unit.  To make the services of each individual member of greater value to Midian Shriners, its Divan and Nobility.

Our cars are on a four wheel go cart chassis with a fiberglass body that has the appearance of a NASCAR race car.  They have a wheel base of 56" they are 90" long and 36" wide.  Each car is distinct in its appearance as they are built to represent the different race teams, numbers and colors of NASCAR.  We do not advertise anything NASCAR other than the appearance.  All of our graphics represent Masonic/Shrine bodies and Midian Shrine.  Our carts are equipped with a Tecumseh overhead valve, 4 stroke, pull start, 195cc, 6HP engine with torque converter and disk brakes. They weigh approximately 220 pounds.
