With 1,300 people competing at the 2023 Tire Rack SCCA® Solo® National Championships, we’re guessing there’ll be a few people on site that you’d like to put in the hot seat if, say, a dunk tank were to appear at this year’s Homecoming Welcome Party, which kicks off around 4 p.m. on Monday, Sept. 4.

While #SoloNatsHasStarted, the Tire Rack SCCA® Solo® National Championships is not the first game in town. You see, the Tire Rack SCCA ProSolo® Finale kicks off the weeklong championship autocross extravaganza in Lincoln, NE, during the Sept. 1-3 weekend.

If a perfect, late-summer getaway was imagined at a racetrack, it would look exactly like what occurred this past weekend in Wampum, PA, at Pittsburgh International Race Complex (PittRace).

We’re about to say something extremely controversial: Safety first. Let’s back that up with a statement we’re sure everybody agrees with: Motorsports safety items should be expensive. Also: Nobody wants free stuff. What’s that, you say? This isn’t controversial? And people do want affordable safety gear and they do like free stuff? Huh – it […]
“I got a message for all of them,” respected racer Cal Naughton Jr. once said. “Shake ‘n bake.” What does that mean, and what does it have to do with the SCCA® RallyCross National Championship taking place at Heartland Motorsports Park in Topeka, KS, on Oct. 6-8, 2023? Nothing on both counts — other than […]

(Looking for an inside line on the Club? “Inside the SCCA” is a podcast that features interviews with the Club’s leading personalities, but it’s not owned by SCCA®. Instead, it’s an independent media outlet managed by Rule 15 Productions and hosted by longtime SCCA member and journalist Brian Bielanski. He uses the Club’s name with […]
An autocross is just an autocross, right? For many of us, we take these monthly gatherings of speed in local parking lots for granted. Sure, we love the challenge and thrill, but these events are one of many facts of life: The sun rises in the morning, your front yard’s grass always grows too much […]
If you look up Sunoco on SCCA®’s “Official Partners” page, you’ll discover that Sunoco has been the “Official Fuel of SCCA” since 2001. And while a 22-year history is nothing to balk at, it barely scrapes the surface of the true ties SCCA and Sunoco share. According to Sunoco, the company got its start in […]

The 60th running of the SCCA® National Championship Runoffs® at VIRginia International Raceway on Sept. 23-Oct. 1, 2023, is barely a month away, but there’s a lot going on right now.

We’ve said it before, and we’ll say it again: SCCA® mash-up events are the best. SCCA’s mash-up weekends involve a multitude of ways to have #funwithcars during the same weekend — all you need is a car equipped with components that can handle the fun. The idea of participating in a Track Night in America […]
Region leaders of the Sports Car Club of America® know how difficult it is to run a successful motorsports program. From facility rental, to marketing, to something seemingly as simple as supplying lunches to volunteers, the “to do” list goes on and on. And while Regions succeed on these event-to-event tasks, there’s always more that […]
