Do a search on American Iron series, and Factory Five Racing (FFR) Cobra spec racing.
That, and look into SCCA racing.

(I dont know, personally, as I dont have a certified license.)

Most of the Nascar drivers start out racing in Late Model classes and sprint car racing on the local dirt tracks and SCCA like Drudis mentioned.
That's how Jimmy Spencer started out and his hometown(Berwick, Pa.) is about 20 miles from me.
