The Mini-Z race track in Wolvega was founded by Gert Koopstra in 2018. He already drove Mini-Z cars on various tracks outside Wolvega and decided to search the internet for a job within the city. On December 15, 2018, he started in his own living room with a small L-shaped track, which consists of five parts. In February 2019 he bought his second L-shaped part and on March 28, 2019 he bought a third L-shaped part. On May 16, 2019, he bought the fourth section, consisting of three wide straights and fast inside corners.

aWhen the track became too big for the living room, Koopstra started looking for another place to put the track. He started a Facebook page to promote the job and had several locations where he thought he could land the job. On August 4, 2019, he organized the Euregio Cup in the community center in Oudeschoot, but due to the enormous growth in the number of riders and visitors, he had to look for another location.

In 2021 Koopstra took the huge step to move to Oldemarkt, where the Mini-Z race track and webshop are now housed together. At this location he can adjust the track whenever he wants and also holds competitions and free riding. Visitors can also visit the store and view and purchase the products.
