The Summit Racing Equipment Road Racing program is the backbone of the SCCA with a program for almost everyone. Road Racing offers the opportunity to experience the excitement by climbing into a racecar and competing against other amateur drivers or working on a corner within inches of all the action.
Volunteer Workers & Officials
Getting involved as a worker or official is as easy as going to a local event and volunteering to help. Workers are issued a license just like the competition drivers, and can work their way up through the four levels of licenses by participating at different events and gaining the knowledge and experience necessary to hold a national specialty license. SCCA licensed workers help staff most of the motorsport events held in the United States in one capacity or another.

Competition Driving
Club racers begin their racing careers by requesting a novice permit and participating in an SCCA Driver’s School. Upon successful completion of the school, drivers then compete in three races to earn an SCCA Full Competition License. Holders of a Full Competition License can compete in Regional, U.S. Majors Tour and Hoosier Super Tour events. A separate Regional and National license is no longer required.
The Hoosier Super Tour and U.S. Majors Tour are the top levels of amateur road racing in North America. The U.S. Majors Tour featured 34 events in six geographic Conferences during 2019, giving top racers a true season-long point championship to chase. Of those 36 weekends, 11 were Hoosier Super Tour events. The Hoosier Super Tour and U.S. Majors Tour are only one step below SCCA Pro Racing, and many of the Pro drivers in SCCA series, as well as other series, developed from the SCCA Road Racing ranks.
Among the largest Road Racing events held this year were Hoosier Super Tour races at Sebring International Raceway, Michelin Raceway Road Atlanta, VIRginia International Raceway, Watkins Glen International and the June Sprints® at Road America. The biggest event in Road Racing each year is the SCCA National Championship Runoffs.
