There are many benefits to being a member of the Sports Car Club of America™. Sure, we could go on and on about the roughly 70,000 members each year that participate in 1,700-plus events annually. In fact, the SCCA® sees more than 100,000 entries each calendar year, proving that #funwithcars is a real thing. But instead, let’s present evidence! Below is a list of people celebrating 25 years (and more!) as a member of the SCCA this December.
The list contains an impressive number of 30-, 35-, and 40-year members, but equally impressive is the fact that half a dozen enthusiasts have been members for 60, 65, and even 70 years this month. That’s a true testament to the fun SCCA brings to the table.
Undoubtedly, you’re a Club member yourself and you already know how amazing motorsports participation is, so this holiday season, spread joy by gifting someone an SCCA membership. In many cases, the gift card even covers some of the Regional dues, too.
Give an SCCA membership gift card.
Beyond that, remember that SCCA membership is the gift that keeps on giving, with members not only able to participate in everything from autocross to road racing, rally, getting trackside, and beyond, but there are also a slew of discounts and deals with other companies that all Club members can access.
Celebrate the members below, then help a friend begin their own motorsports journey.
The anniversary listing below notes each member’s name, Region of record, Division, and join/rejoin date. It’s important to point out that join dates for 1980 and earlier may list the first of the month rather than the actual day of membership.
