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.
