SCCA’s Road Racing program is designed to fulfill the need of the “amateur athlete.” It is a comprehensive, nationwide program featuring events held throughout the year that cater to the driver who perhaps prefers to test his or her skill on a part-time basis, rather than compete full time on SCCA’s professional circuits. Nevertheless, because the competition at the Club level is so fierce, many professionals also participate in this program to further hone their skills and compete at SCCA’s National Championship Runoffs®.

The amateur road racing program is administered by SCCA’s Road Racing Department. A staff of SCCA personnel handles the needs of the amateur racecar driver, including drivers’ schools - to help a new racer earn his or her license, a regional racing program - for those just starting out, Performance Driving Experiences, and both the U.S. Majors Tour® and Hoosier Racing Tire SCCA Super Tour - the highest levels of amateur road racing in North America.

Road Racing is an integral part of SCCA. Nearly half the membership is involved on the amateur level, either as drivers, crew, workers or officials. More than 7,000 SCCA members hold competition licenses allowing them to compete within SCCA’s Road Racing programs.
