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.
