What’s Up Y’all!

Thank you again for signing up to be a part of the 2025 Tire Rack SCCA Solo Nationals! We’re getting wired in for Lincoln and we can’t wait to turn Solo Nats up to 11! This is the first of a weekly Monday bulletin for Solo Nationals competitors containing valuable information you should know. Expect one each Monday from now until Nationals. 

Please take a few minutes each week to read through everything and by doing so you will be well prepared to have a week of fun at Solo Nationals! Let’s get started.

• SCCA Welcoming Environment

The SCCA strives to ensure that ALL participants in its events and activities enjoy a welcoming environment. The SCCA supports equality of opportunity and treatment for all participants, regardless of gender, gender identity or expression, race, color, national or ethnic origin, religion or religious beliefs, age, marital status, sexual orientation, disabilities, or veteran status. SCCA will make every effort to maintain an environment that is free of harassment, discrimination, and any behavior that interferes with a safe, fun, and exciting experience. A commitment to a welcoming environment and the SCCA Values is expected of all its members and attendees, including drivers, workers, crew, guests, staff, contractors and exhibitors, and other participants at SCCA activities, sessions and social events and when representing the SCCA in print or electronic media.

• Price/Cancellation Fee Increase

The registration fee will increase to $325 at 12:01 am Central on July 30 (this Wednesday!). The cancellation fee will also increase from $50 to $100. Any registrations after the July 30^th increase will also not be able to receive a refund. Make sure any of your friends that are still on the fence know!

• Class Changes

If you need to make any changes to your class, let Tracy know by filling out this form here. Taking care of this sooner rather than later helps us make sure the run/work order split between courses and heats is more accurate, which is imperative to event flow.

• Car Number/Car Information

Review your car number and/or car information to be sure that the vehicle you are registered in is the vehicle you will be running in Lincoln. If you need to make changes here, also let Tracy know by completing the change form. This will ensure that you do not have to make any changes on-site in Lincoln and your on-site check-in process will be quicker.

• Mailing Address

Just like the past few years, the trophies at Nationals will be handed out without the names on them. The plates will be mailed out after the event to the address that you have listed in your MotorsportReg account. Please log in to your account and check that your address is current to ensure there are no delays in getting your engraved plate to put on your trophy. While you're in there, a quick check to make sure your emergency contact is still correct is never a bad idea.

As you’re checking your MotorsportReg account, take a few moments to check your SCCA Member Account Portal (my.scca.com) as well. Pro tip: You can take care of your SCCA Annual Waiver while you’re there! Here's how to do just that!

• Group Paddock Registration closing

Group paddock registration will close at 12:01 am Central on July 31^st (this Thursday). If your group (6+ drivers) is not already in conversation with our Paddock Team, you need to reach out to them ASAP at solopaddock@scca.com. After the 31st, all drivers will need to use the Individual Paddock Registration process to secure a spot.

• Logistics Information

Keep reading for a quick highlight of some logistics details. This information can also be found on the Solo Nationals event page at scca.com.

1. Golf Carts: The site’s big, y’all. If you are interested in securing your own golf cart for the week, reach out to either Nebraska Golf and Turf (402-466-6222) or Buresh Golf and Equipment (402-499-9806).
2. Group/Large Tents: If your Region/Group is securing a tent, either rental or otherwise, for 2025 Solo Nationals, please remember that you will also have to secure a tent permit from the city of Lincoln for any tents over 400sqft. This is a city requirement. You can find more information regarding tent permits and the application here: https://www.lincoln.ne.gov/City/Departments/Building-Safety/Online-Permit-Applications-and-Inspections/Application-Forms-and-Permits/Tents-andor-Membrane-Structures-Permit
3. RV Servicing: Our porta potty vendor has agreed to provide RV drainage services again this year. Call Port-A-Johns at 402-965-9700 and ask for Jenny to arrange services. $40 to drain, cash is preferred but they can take credit cards (add a 3.09% fee). Timing will vary depending on their schedule and you will have to handle refilling on your own.

• Want to Share the Fun with the World?

We’re putting together the Event Reporter team and are looking for a few folks who would be interested in sharing the goings-on of Solo Nationals with the world! If you want to help amp up the FOMO for your friends who wouldn’t make the trip, fill out this application form ASAP! And by ASAP, I mean like right now as the work assignment puzzle begins in earnest on Wednesday, July 30^th. Applications received after Wednesday may not be considered.

• ProSolo Finale Registration Begins!

For my ProSolo friends, here’s your reminder that registration for the Finale is also opening soon.

• Tier 1 (34+ points in your Finale class) will open Wednesday, August 6 at 3pm Central.
• Tier 2 (27 or more points OR 3 or more events in your Finale class) will open Wednesday, August 13 at 3pm Central.
• Tier 3 (scored points in 2 or more events in your Finale class) will open Wednesday, August 20 at 3pm Central.

As in years past, the previous Tier will close at 2:45pm ahead of the next Tier’s 3pm opening, so please plan appropriately so that you aren’t joining the folks in the next Tier.

You can check out your Points Standing by clicking here.

Hi All,

Thank you again for signing up to be a part of the 2025 Tire Rack SCCA Solo Nationals! We’re getting wired in for Lincoln and we can’t wait to turn Solo Nats up to 11! This is the second of a weekly Monday bulletin for Solo Nationals competitors containing valuable information you should know. Expect one each Monday until Nationals. 

Please take a few minutes each week to read through everything and by doing so you will be well prepared to have a week of fun at Solo Nationals! Let’s get started.

• Don’t Forget to Register for Contingency

Registering for SCCA’s gold and silver level administered contingency programs is a separate registration from your Nationals entry and can be found in your Member Account Portal. Remember, National Tour registration DOES NOT include Solo Nationals - you must register separately every year. Competitors must be registered prior to competing, and it is the competitor's responsibility to comply with contingency requirements. Please check the programs on https://www.scca.com/pages/solo-contingency for detailed program requirements, including decal placements and a link to the registration page.

The following companies are posting bronze level contingency programs for which you must register directly with the sponsoring companies:

• Hoosier Racing Tire
• Mazda North American Operations
• Toyota Racing Development 
• Minor Waivers

In the state of Nebraska, the age of majority is 19. Therefore, any competitor under the age of 19 at the time of Solo Nationals will need to have a minor waiver completed.

If a minor’s membership hard card has “Minor waiver on file” on the back, just show the hard card to the waiver workers. Minors can then receive a Nationals wristband, or they can display their membership (hard) card on their person; either needs to be visible anytime on the Nationals site.

If a minor competitor (driver) and/or worker does not already have an annual waiver on file with the SCCA National office noted on the back of the membership (hard) card, then an electronic minor waiver will need to be filled out with the signature of BOTH parents/guardians and the minor ahead of the event. (A waiver with only one parent/guardian signature is not a valid document unless the one parent/guardian legally has sole custody. An affidavit of sole custody can be signed by the parent/guardian as part of the electronic waiver process.)

• A minor waiver is not necessary for minors under 12 years of age; they are not permitted to be in active “hot” areas per the 2025 Solo Rules section 1.3.2.O (page 28).
• A minor waiver is not necessary for minors 12 to 17 years old but they are not permitted in active “hot” areas without a minor waiver completed as stated previously.

You are highly encouraged to take care of any minor waivers (or annual SCCA waivers for those over 19) via our electronic process so that you'll be good to go once you get on site. Find the instructions to do so here.

• Women on Track Brunch – Registration Open!

Join SCCA Women on Track at the Tire Rack Event Center on Monday, September 1, at 10:00 am to meet other WOT, talk cars, and win prizes. This year is going to be bigger and better than ever – don’t miss out!

Check out the flyer for more information and register so we have an accurate headcount for snacks! It’s free to attend and not limited to Solo Nationals drivers, we just want to know you’re coming!

A big thank you to Mazda Motorsports for sponsoring the event again this year!

• Event Gear Pre-Order Deadline: August 17

If you haven’t ordered your Solo Nats gear yet, now’s the time. The pre-order deadline is August 17^th if you want to be able to pick it up at the Shirts101 tent on site. Orders placed after 8/17 are not guaranteed to be available for pickup & may ship after the event.

Pre-order is the way to go to ensure that you get the style and color that you want, as not everything will be stocked in Lincoln. And quantities of other items may be limited.

• Course Walk Wristbands

If you need approval for course walk accommodations, please fill out the request form before 3:00 pm Central on Thursday, August 28 for pre-approval by a Chief Steward. Please provide pertinent details so that they can be included in the request to the Steward. Once approved, your wristband will be available for you at Check-In. After 3:00 pm Central on August 28, any requests for accommodation will need to be directed to the Chief Steward on site.

Hi All,

Thank you again for signing up to be a part of the 2025 Tire Rack SCCA Solo Nationals! We’re getting wired in for Lincoln and we can’t wait to turn Solo Nats up to 11! This is the third round of a weekly Monday bulletin for Solo Nationals competitors containing valuable information you should know. Expect one each Monday from now until Nationals. 

Please take a few minutes each week to read through everything and by doing so you will be well prepared to have a week of fun at Solo Nationals! Let’s get started.

• Individual Paddock Space Registration is Opening

Registration for Individual Paddock Spaces is set to open on Wednesday, August 13 at 6pm Central. There is the slightest chance of having to push this back one week, but as of the time of this email everything is still on target for 8/13. I’ll advise ASAP if there is a change needed.

To request a paddock space, you and any co-drivers that you’re claiming must be registered for the event before being considered. A specific Paddock Space email will be published ahead of registration but go ahead and mark your calendar!

Group Paddocks are being finalized in order to provide accurate availability.

• Site Etiquette

As we enter the 16th year of running at Lincoln Air Park, we want to remind everyone that this is a Solo site just like everyone else has in their Region. We would like everyone to treat LAP just like they would their local site. This means helping keep the site clean, watching speeds, and avoiding areas that are restricted (such as crossing the snow fence). Just like with other sites, the eyes of LAP have noticed some instances of horseplay around the site. They have specifically mentioned it to us and to help us keep the site please treat it with respect as you would your own region’s site.

We also would like to give you all a heads up that many racetracks require all drivers of golf carts to carry insurance specific to the golf carts. While this isn’t something we want to put in place it is something we, unfortunately, have had to discuss possibly doing. It won’t be required this year but is something we might discuss for the future depending on how carts are treated.

• Paddock Limitations

1) All conveyance vehicles, to include golf carts, bicycles, trikes, mopeds, motorcycles, scooters, etc. MUST be equipped with at least one front light, and one rear light when operated after dusk, and prior to dawn. Preference would be two front lights and at least one rear light. The rear light should be red and the front light(s) should be white, but as long as the vehicle can be clearly seen during dark hours of operation, a combination is acceptable. 

2) Speeds on site, excluding the courses, will be monitored by radar reading and will be a max of 12 mph.

3) Rules of the road shall apply, including paddock lanes, and all other areas inside the Nationals compound. This includes stopping at intersections and proceeding with caution, watching out for pedestrian traffic as well as other conveyances, no horseplay in or on any conveyance vehicle including golf carts and other units listed above. There shall be no ramp jumping, racing, tire warming, or reckless operation of any vehicle inside Nationals gated and fenced area. 

4) Tire cleaning shall be confined to the tire cleaning area only. No donuts or other reckless operation of any vehicle inside the compound.

5) Areas outside of Nationals gated area, including approach and entry roads, shall not be used for tire warming, tuning, or anything other than a route to and from the Nationals compound. Posted speed limits should be observed.

6) Quiet time runs from 10 PM till 6 AM. Please consider your neighbors during that time. Loud generators must not operate during quiet hours. 

7) Use all trash bins available. There will be bins marked CARDBOARD ONLY, please use appropriately as this is a local government ordinance. Please DO NOT MOVE the bins unless you are emptying them into the larger dumpsters. If you must move them, please return them to their original locations. The locations of the bins are marked on a map to assist the trash vendor in emptying all bins quickly and efficiently.

8) IMPORTANT REMINDER: If you are paddocked in an asphalt spot, NO HOLES can be made in the surface. Any jack, jack stand, tent pole, etc. MUST have a solid flat surface under it. Wood is strongly encouraged to be at least 12"x12".

9) IMPORTANTER REMINDER: Over the course of the ProSolo Finale and Solo Nationals, paddock space will again be shared with an active Lincoln Airport maintenance facility taxiway. This taxiway runs directly from the Goodyear hangar through the paddock to the runway. The taxiway is marked off with cones and/or barriers. This taxiway MUST remain open and unblocked 24/7. When you cross the taxiway, either on foot or by vehicle, DO NOT STOP or park in the active taxiway. Any parked/blocking vehicle will be towed immediately.

10) Paddock Marshal (safety) is Greg Vincent. If any issues arise in the paddock, his cell number is 724 221 5108. Please announce yourself as “Solo Nationals assistance needed” to get through the call screen. He will respond to calls anytime. In addition, there will be others working/patrolling the paddock in a golf cart marked Paddock or Paddock Safety.

• Solo Nationals Run/Work Posted!

Don’t forget that the run/work order has been posted! You can find them on the event page under “schedules” or via direct link here: Run/Work

Hi All,

Thank you again for signing up to be a part of the 2025 Tire Rack SCCA Solo Nationals! We’re getting wired in for Lincoln and we can’t wait to turn Solo Nats up to 11! This is the fourth round of a weekly Monday bulletin for Solo Nationals competitors containing valuable information you should know. Expect one each Monday until Nationals.

Please take a few minutes each week to read through everything and by doing so you will be well prepared to have a week of fun at Solo Nationals! Let’s get started.

• Individual Paddock Space Registration Closes August 27

Registration for Individual Paddock Spaces will close Wednesday, August 27th. If you are wanting to pick your paddock spot, please make sure you do so before then! To select a paddock spot, simply click on an available spot on the Paddock Map and complete the Registration Form. If you just need a space but aren’t particular about where, shoot an email to the Paddock Team at solopaddock@scca.com and let them know. They’ll be glad to assign you a home for the week.

• Have You Registered for Contingency?

Our contingency team is telling me that things are looking a little light on the registration side. Don’t forget that you have to register for Solo Nationals contingency SEPERATELY from National Tour registrations. National Tour sign-ups DO NOT carry over to this event.

Competitors must be registered prior to competing, and it is the competitor's responsibility to comply with contingency requirements. Please check the programs on https://www.scca.com/pages/solo-contingency for detailed program requirements, including decal placements and a link to the registration page.

The following companies are posting bronze level contingency programs for which you must register directly with the sponsoring companies:

Hoosier Racing Tire

Mazda North American Operations

Toyota Racing Development

• SPS & R&S Racing Services Available On Site

Fellow competitors and vendors SPS & R&S Racing will again be on site for the full week! This year they’ll be set up on vendor row, in line with the TREC (Tire Rack Event Center), and roughly “across the street” from where they were last year. They’re marked on the Paddock Map, if you want to take a look.

Open from roughly 7am until the work is done, your place in line is first-come, first-served, so stop on by for your tire changing and motorsports accessories needs!

• Waivers & Wristbands

Don’t forget that you have the option to take care of your waiver ahead of the event! We highly encourage you to take advantage of this – then all you have to do is show the gate staff your credentials and you’re in! (If your SCCA membership card does not have your picture on the front, you will also need to show your driver’s license with your Annual Waiver designation.)

The silicone wristbands we’ve all grown to love will be back this year, and available at the gate. If you’re not a fan of those, the standard SCCA Tyvek band will also be available.

Links to the SCCA annual waiver instructions and the SpeedWaiver option can be found below.

Annual Waiver Instructions (including minor waiver information)

SpeedWaiver

If you are a competitor under the age of 19 (or have a competitor under the age of 19), please email Tracy Lewis at tlewis@scca.com so that we are aware and can help make sure the minor waiver is taken care of correctly ahead of the event. Remember, in Nebraska, the age of majority is 19, so don’t let that catch you unaware!

• Worker Change On the Fly

We will again be doing worker changeover on the fly. You can (and should) read more about the process here. However, the gist of it is that after you check in for your work assignment you will not wait for the heat to end before heading to your station. You will instead proceed on out to your assignment, where you can shadow the workers until their heat is finished, learning any pertinent information about your coverage area. Prior heat workers will remain until the end of their heat before handing over the reins. During the brief downtime between heats, check your area to make sure you’re ready to begin.

• Worker Descriptions

The Chief of Workers has put together a job description for all Solo Nationals worker assignments. Whether you are a seasoned veteran or new to National Solo events, we encourage everyone to read them over so that everyone is prepared and on the same page. You can refresh your memory here: https://www.scca.com/downloads/77097/download

• Schedule of Activities & Compliance Inspections Posted

The biggest pieces of the “where to be and what to do” puzzle are now available. You can find the full schedule of activities here or over on the event page under “Schedules.”

In addition, the following compliance inspections are being announced at the request of the SEB and Advisory Committees. These targeted compliance inspections may take place during the Impound period in Grid after each heat concludes. Competitors must be prepared to make their car ready for such inspections by being able to safely jack one side of the car up and remove a front and rear wheel. Competitors need to come to Grid prepared for such inspections and are responsible for removal and reinstallation of components as required and must use proper tools/equipment (e.g. jack, jack stands to support raised vehicle, and necessary tools for wheel removal).

The following categories will be required to remove a front and rear wheel from one side of the vehicle after completion of competition runs on the first day (Tuesday/Thursday) for the class:

• Street
• Street Touring
• CSX & CSM

Lastly, B Mod will inspect rear wing max height and F Mod will inspect max track width.

• Last Day to Register is August 25

That’s right, registration is still open, until Monday, August 25 at 3pm Central. So if you’ve got a friend who’s dealing with the Solo Nats FOMO right now, tell them to sign up already! The late entry fee is $325 and these entries are non-refundable.

Hello all!

We are so so so close to getting to go to Lincoln and I can’t wait!

To help make our more “technical” processes as simple as possible, we’ve got a couple of reminders and best practices that we’ve put together for you below. Take a quick read, see what you can go ahead and take care of, and let’s all get to the #funwithcars as quickly as possible!

Pack the Tow Hook

Friendly reminder to bring your tow hook with you to Lincoln. Not that anything is going to happen, but should the need arise, it’ll help us get you off course quicker. The quicker you’re off course, the quicker you can start sorting the issue. It also means that we can get cars back on course, too.

Early Arrival

The Airpark has helped us secure an Early Arrival area for 2025, off of NW 38^th & Air Park Rd. To access, please turn onto Air Park Rd and then left onto NW 36^th St to then circle into the parking lot. Please DO NOT BLOCK the roll up door on the building.

As always, the area is first-come, first-served, but please be considerate of your fellow competitors and park in a way to maximize opportunity. If it is full, you will have to find another area, outside of the Airpark, in which to stage.

We have been given access to the boxed area and no more. Do not park outside of the area – violators will be towed. Do not block any streets or intersections.

And most importantly, be respectful of the businesses around you (and in the Airpark). They are still working while we are hanging out in our concrete beach.

Waivers

Do them ahead of time if you can. Complete the electronic annual waiver on your SCCA member account portal at my.scca.com (Instructions) or the SpeedWaiver.

Under 19? You must have a valid Minor Waiver on file to compete in the state of Nebraska. Filling it out ahead of time is absolutely the easy button here. Take care of it electronically and avoid a notary fee (see instructions link above)! Email Tracy Lewis at tlewis@scca.com so that she can make sure the Minor Waiver was completed properly & that you’re good to go.

At the gate: Have your SCCA card (annual waiver), SpeedWaiver documentation, or Driver’s License handy. Your SCCA card with the annual waiver designation & your picture on it or SpeedWaiver info will show you’re good to go to get your event armband. If you’re signing the paper waiver or don’t have your photo on your SCCA card, the Driver’s License will serve as your positive identification. Pro Tip: You can access an electronic copy of your SCCA membership card in your member account portal.

Showing you’ve signed the waiver: You have two options on site to show that you’ve signed the waiver. Annual SCCA waiver with updated hard card? You may opt to display your hard card in a visible location on the front of your body. To do so, you must wear it at all times. Or you may get the standard Solo Nationals silicone armband at the gate (participating minors will get their silicone wristband at check-in after confirmation of their minor waiver). The Tyvek SCCA wristbands are also available at the gate for spectators or those who don’t like the silicone bands.

Waivers are legal documents. It has come to our attention that there are people signing waivers under false names. Anyone not signing their name is falsifying a legal document. Please make sure your printed name and member number are legible. If it is illegible, you will be asked to re-sign and legibly print your information.

Check-In

Check your membership expiration date! If your membership expires on August 31 and is not set up on automatic renewal, please renew before coming to check-in. Full, annual membership is required to attend Solo Nationals.

This year, the Check-In Tent will be back down by the East Course (Plane Side) with the Tech Tent. Having them together has helped with the flow the past few years, so we’re doing it again!

Go to Check-In before you go to Tech. There will already be a tech sheet for you at Check-In with your information pre-filled based on your MotorsportReg entry. We will not be using the standard Tech Sheet for Solo Nationals.

Bring Your Helmet with you to Check-In. The Check-In team will scan your helmet barcode to make sure they can get a good scan. You will still need to take your helmet to tech to ensure it passes tech inspection.

Make sure you get in the right line! Check-in will be split by last name, so make sure you get in the correct line! There will be signs above the stations to show the split. If you need to make changes, that line will be on the far left when you enter the tent.

The alpha splits (by last name!) are as follows:

• Tues/Weds: A-G, H-N, O-Z
• Thurs/Fri: A-K, L-Z

Attended the ProSolo Finale? You will still need to go through check-in for Solo Nationals.

Tech

Please be sure to read this section. It is updated compared to previous years!

Use the tech form that you get at Check-In (not the regular season tech form) to tech your car. Then take the completed form and your helmet to the Tech Tent. Pro Tip: You are under no obligation to do Check-In and Tech at the same time. If the line is longer than you’d like to deal with at that time, come back later (but check the schedule first!).

Need any of the required decals or provided sponsor decals? Look for a Tech teammate! They’ll have them in the Tech tent!

Not all sponsor decals are available on-site. Need to check if yours are? Review contingency program details here. Pro Tip: Make sure you have signed up for Solo Nationals contingency before competition begins. It is separate from your National Tour sign-up!

All numbers and required decals will need to be correctly applied before you can take to the courses for competition. You do not need to present your car at tech. If you have concerns regarding decal placement or number/class letter contrast with your vehicle, you may bring the vehicle to the tech area for consultation. Pro Tip: Refer to the event supps for required decals. Required decal locations and class/number sizing can be found here.

Co-drivers? Every driver will need to turn in a tech form and have their helmet inspected before competing.

Event Decals: The Tech Stickers and Event Decals will only be issued once you’ve turned in your tech form. Don’t forget to apply the Event Decals to the car – they are required to run! The 2025 Event Decal measures 4in x 5in (WxH) and is a rectangle with rounded courners.

Attended the ProSolo Finale? You’re teched for the week. Make sure your tech stickers reflect your appropriate classes and you’re good. You’ll get your Event Decals when you check in for Solo Nationals.

Impound

Impound for each class will be in their respective Grids. All competition vehicles will be impounded per Solo rules 6.10 to assure that competitors have complied with the SCCA National Solo Rules and Supplementary Regulations for the event. Car information and appropriate decal placement will be verified by Impound workers.

Compliance Inspections

Targeted compliance inspections at the Solo Nationals may take place during the Impound period in Grid after each heat concludes. Competitors must be prepared to make their car ready for such inspections by being able to safely jack one side of the car up and remove a front and rear wheel. Competitors need to come to Grid prepared for such inspections and are responsible for removal and reinstallation of components as required and must use proper tools/equipment (e.g. jack, jack stands to support raised vehicle, and necessary tools for wheel removal).

The following categories will be required to remove a front and rear wheel from one side of the vehicle after completion of competition runs on the first day (Tuesday/Thursday) for the class:

• Street
• Street Touring
• CSX & CSM

In addition, B Mod will inspect rear wing max height and F Mod will inspect max track width.

Release from Impound

Drivers are to remain in the Grid/Impound until specifically RELEASED. NOTE: Distribution of results is not the official release. After Timing and Impound have agreed to the official time of release, Impound will signal "Impound is released."

Scales

All Street Modified, Prepared, Modified, CAM, Xtreme Street category and CSX vehicles will be weighed after running. Drivers should look for Impound workers to direct them to the scales. Please be aware of other vehicles to be weighed and enter/exit the scales safely and without unnecessary delay.

Drivers of Street Modified and Prepared cars will need to exit the vehicle when weighing. CAM/Xtreme Street, CSX, Modified, and Kart vehicles should remain seated in the vehicle. For classes that weigh with driver, each driver must report to scales after 3rd runs.

If a vehicle has two drivers, it will weigh after competition has been completed for both drivers.

Disabled vehicles (DNS, DNF, etc.) are still required to proceed to the scales promptly, drivers should notify Impound right away of their disabled status. Failure to report to the scales when directed may result in penalties.

Protests

For complete Protest & Appeals regulations, please see Sections 8 & 10 of the SCCA Solo Rulebook and the 2025 Tire Rack SCCA Solo Nationals Supplemental Rules.

Protests at Solo Nationals will be filed electronically using the Sportity password SCCAPROTEST. This information will be available at the Protest Tent or by contacting a Chief Steward. The online form submission will go directly to the Chief of Protest and will be distributed as required. Protesters must ensure that their on-site contact information is listed on the Protest Form so the Protest Committee is able to reach them with a decision.

Hi All,

Thank you again for signing up to be a part of the 2025 Tire Rack SCCA Solo Nationals! We’re getting wired in for Lincoln and we can’t wait to turn Solo Nats up to 11! This is the fifth round of a weekly Monday bulletin for Solo Nationals competitors containing valuable information you should know. 

Please take a few minutes each week to read through everything and by doing so you will be well prepared to have a week of fun at Solo Nationals! Let’s get started.

• I-70 Construction in Missouri

There is construction in Missouri along I-70, that may exist in phases for several years. If you typically find yourself along this route, you may want to take a look at what’s going on and see if an alternate route will be required or a helpful backup plan.

• Will Work for Free Test N Tune Sessions!

Willing to work for Test N Tune Sessions? The Test N Tune course is operated by the Nebraska Region every year, allowing participants to test n tune without working. However, this year they are looking for some additional workers to help out. If you’re willing to work a morning or afternoon, they will give you a set of four runs in an available hour slot! Already registered for a T&T slot? Don’t worry! They’ll get the money back to you when you work! Give Nebraska Region a hand and register here: https://msreg.com/TNT2025.

Need more details? Check out the email from Saturday!

• OK, But What About Runs on the Competition Surface?

Well…we’ve got that option too, but just for Sunday, August 31. If you’re willing to work the ProSolo Finale Challenges, we’ll give you 4 runs on the Finale courses on Sunday morning!

What it is: 4 free runs on Sunday morning in exchange for working the Challenges in the afternoon. You’ll be in an indexed class for T&S/recording purposes but divided up across run groups as necessary.

• Reminder: Course walk wristbands

If you need approval for course walk accommodations, please fill out the request form before 3:00 pm Central on Thursday, August 28 for pre-approval by a Chief Steward. Please provide pertinent details so that they can be included in the request to the Steward. Once approved, your wristband will be available for you at Solo Nationals Registration. After 3:00 pm Central on August 28, any requests for accommodation will need to be directed to the Chief Steward on site.

• Early Arrival

The Airpark has helped us secure an Early Arrival area for 2025, off of NW 38th & Air Park Rd. To access, please turn onto Air Park Rd and then left onto NW 36th St to then circle into the parking lot. Please DO NOT BLOCK the roll up door on the building.

As always, the area is first-come, first-served, but please be considerate of your fellow competitors and park in a way to maximize opportunity. If it is full, you will have to find another area, outside of the Airpark, in which to stage.

We have been given access to the boxed area and no more. Do not park outside of the area – violators will be towed. Do not block any streets or intersections.

And most importantly, be respectful of the businesses around you (and in the Airpark). They are still working while we are hanging out in our concrete beach.

• Friday, August 29 Gate Opening @ 8:00 am

Early event arrival plans are going to be very similar to the past couple of years. Prior to 2017, we had complaints about traffic congestion, particularly early on Friday with people lining up to enter the site right at opening and some security concerns. In order to alleviate these concerns, and be better neighbors to other tenants, we are continuing with the rules for early arrival. Please follow these rules and assist us in maintaining a smooth opening operation each year.

1. There is no waiting at the gate for it to open on Friday morning. No exceptions. Please do not even approach the gate prior to 8:00 am on Friday morning. You have a reserved parking spot - nobody is going to beat you there.
2. There is no parking/waiting on any street on the airport property. Of course, if the gate is open, and you're in line, that's OK, but seriously, forming a line and blocking an entire lane is not acceptable.
3. If you arrive prior to 8:00 am on Friday, please plan to find a place to hang out prior to Gate Open.
4. You may see authorized setup people coming and going through the gate prior to 8:00 am on Friday. If you're not one of these people, you're not going to get in the gate. No exceptions. No, not you either. Sorry. Do not try to talk your way in. Seriously, Airport Security is only a phone call away.
5. If you are blocking a street prior to 8:00 am, you may be asked to move immediately.
6. Nobody and I mean NOBODY is permitted to enter or exit the site except at Gate 41. Any transgressions on this rule are a security violation and will be dealt with severely. We have cameras. We see all.

We’re ready to Rock Out, but we really don’t want to be bouncers. We must, however, continue to keep this situation under control. Thank you for your understanding and cooperation!

• Reminder: Solo Nationals Event Supps Posted

Don’t forget that Event Supps have been posted. You can find them on the event page and by direct link here: https://www.scca.com/downloads/77125. As always, these contain important information, including but not limited to things like:

• sharing the paddock with a taxiway (don’t stop or park in the active taxiway!)
• use of the National Tour stage/start lights (including a stage/start light explanation document)
• impound and weighing procedures (officials may ask for components to be removed during the impound process and competitors should have the proper tools available in the grid for removal and reinstallation of said components, ie a jack and necessary tools for removal & jack stands to support the raised vehicle) 
• protest & appeals procedures (including Sportity password for filing electronically)

Make sure to read through them so there are no surprises once you arrive on-site.

• Speaking of Impound Procedures and Compliance Checks…

The following categories will be required to remove a front and rear wheel from one side of the vehicle after completion of competition runs on the first day (Tuesday/Thursday) for the class:

• Street
• Street Touring
• CSX & CSM

As a reminder, please come to grid (both Ladies and Open classes) prepared for these compliance checks with jack, jackstands, and wheel removal tools.

In addition, the following classes will be subject to inspections:

• B Mod – rear wing max height
• F Mod – max track width
   
• Trailer Jail

Want to maximize your paddock space? Consider dropping your trailer off in Trailer Jail after unloading. You won’t need it for a couple of days at least. This year the trailer jail will again be located at the very back of the paddock. Please just remember to park in an orderly manner so that others can also park or retrieve their trailers as needed.

• Can’t make it? Don’t forget to cancel.

While I hope that this doesn’t apply to you, if you find that you won’t be able to make it to Lincoln after all, please let us know as soon as possible. The sooner you can let us know, the more accurate we can make the entry list and the worker pool. You can request cancellation on MotorsportReg or send Tracy an email at tlewis@scca.com. The last day to cancel and receive a refund (less $100 cancellation fee) for those that registered before July 30 is August 29 @7pm Central. After that, no refund will be processed.

Safe travels & we'll see you soon!
