This is Why Hawk Performance Created the HPX Autocross Brake Pad

Hawk Performance, the Official Brake Products of SCCA®, offers a variety of brake pads, and the reason is pretty obvious: When it comes to performance brakes, there is no pad that does it all. For high-performance driving, Hawk offers several compounds, including the HP+ and HPS 5.0. When it comes to autocross-specific applications, while those […]

Grissom Went Full Send at the 2026 Tire Rack SCCA Shootout

The Tire Rack SCCA® Grissom Shootout took place on Aug. 7-9, 2026, at Grissom Aeroplex in Bunker Hill, IN, a great Northern Indiana location for autocrossing, and an opportunity for classes to take center stage that may not get that focus at a traditional Solo® National Tour event. Each class received an impressive nine runs […]

Lincoln’s Hot and Stormy Weekend Matched the Competition Perfectly During the Last ProSolo Tour of the Season

That’ll do it – the final Tire Rack SCCA® ProSolo® Series event of the season before everyone makes their way to Lincoln, NE, (again) for the Tire Rack ProSolo Finale has wrapped. And what an event it was! During the Aug. 7-9, 2026, weekend (and with a relaxed atmosphere), 120 autocrossers descended on Lincoln Airpark […]

Finger Lakes Delivers One Last Solo National Tour Thrill Before Lincoln

The Aug. 1-2, 2026, Tire Rack SCCA® Finger Lakes Solo® National Tour at the Seneca Army Depot in Romulous, NY, was the final stop on the “Road to Lincoln” before the masses descend on the Tire Rack SCCA Solo National Championships in just a few weeks. The 260 entries were hosted by SCCA’s Finger Lakes […]

Packwood Packs in Incredible Late-season ProSolo Action

The Pacific Northwest is not known as one of America’s barbecue hot spots, but thanks to a lightning storm that lit fires on Wednesday night, the competitors at the July 25-26, 2026, Tire Rack SCCA® Packwood ProSolo® were cooked low and slow for two days at Hampton Mills. (Sure, that’s a bit of exaggeration, but […]

Press “Start” on Your ’26 Solo Nats Registration Now Before the Entry Fee Levels Up…With a Bonus for Rookies

Faster than a Super Mario Bros speedrun (for the curious, that speedrun time is a spectacular 4:54.365), the late registration deadline for the Sept. 7-11, 2026, Tire Rack SCCA® Solo® National Championships is here. Well, nearly here. At 12:01 a.m. on June 29, the late entry fee kicks in, bumping up the price to compete […]

ProSolo Registration is at the Staging Lights, Don’t Throw Away Your Shot

The Tire Rack SCCA® Solo® National Championships gets a theme each year (this year is video games!), so why shouldn’t the Tire Rack SCCA ProSolo® Finale also get in on the fun? Therein, this article’s author (with no official authority whatsoever) humbly suggests the musical Hamilton as a theme, because now that you’ve spent all […]

Packwood Delivered Mountain Views and Fierce Solo National Tour Competition

Two Tire Rack SCCA® Solo® National Tour events on the same weekend – in opposite parts of the country – means a mess of cones being knocked across pavement all over the United States (although a few survived). We told you about the Tire Rack SCCA Grissom Solo National Tour already, so now it’s time […]

Grissom Brought the Heat and the Competition to This Solo National Tour

SCCA’s Indianapolis Region knows how to host an event, and the 180 competitors at the July 18-19, 2026, Tire Rack SCCA® Grissom Solo® National Tour can attest to that. The event was a success despite warm and humid Midwest air … plus a bit of smoke from the Canadian wildfires … and a thunderstorm that […]

August Is Here, and the National Solo Season Is Far from Over

Wrapping up … or heating up? Depending on your view of the Tire Rack SCCA® National Solo® program, it’s up for you to decide. Either way, we can tell you this: Just because it’s about to be August, it doesn’t mean anything is over. SCCA’s National Solo events in August are few but mighty – […]

Street Survival

How Your SCCA Region Can Teach Young Drivers to Handle the Unexpected

The Tire Rack Street Survival school is a nonprofit, one-day driver training program for licensed or permitted drivers ages 15-21 that goes beyond standard driver’s education by teaching real-world car-control and hazard-avoidance skills in a safe, controlled environment. Students use their own vehicles and work one-on-one with trained volunteer coaches to practice emergency braking, skid […]

The Community Rallied at Bristol, Making for an Unforgettable Independence Day ProSolo and Solo National Tour Weekend

If you wanted excuses, the Independence Day weekend at Bristol, featuring the Tire Rack SCCA® Bristol ProSolo® on Thursday and Friday (July 2-3, 2026) and the Tire Rack SCCA Bristol Solo® National Tour on Saturday and Sunday (July 4-5, 2026), could have provided them. But instead of excuses, the autocross community saw opportunities to come […]

Thumbs up to July, Which Is Packed with so Much National Autocross Awesomeness It Would Make for an Epic Road Trip

The July Tire Rack SCCA® National Solo® schedule is getting a thumbs-up all around, and for good reason. July is packed with a whopping six (!) events, and no matter where you are in the country, there’s probably an event taking place within a reasonable drive of your abode. If we’re being honest, there’s likely […]

Tuning Tips: Change One Thing at a Time

At the racetrack, I like to keep things simple. The KISS method (Keep It Simple, Stupid) is perfect for me. I’m not the smartest guy, so I appreciate it when things are as linear as possible. That’s why when I make a change to the setup of a race car, I change ONE thing at […]

It’s Full Speed Ahead with Hagerty and SCCA This Summer

Mid-season check-in and … yes, Hagerty (the Official Insurance Partner of SCCA®) is still powering a ton of activities with the SCCA. There was never any doubt. First up: Why? Hagerty, after all, is an insurance company, so why would Hagerty have an interest in the Sports Car Club of America™? Well, Hagerty is like […]
