Hagerty: Plastic Fantastic and the Joy of Buttons

The fun of SCCA® Track Night in America® Driven by Tire Rack events is you put your car on the track at a time and price that works for you. If you own a shiny new BMW with nifty paddle shifters – bring it! If your ride is an aging B5 VW Passat with a […]

SCCA Foundation’s Grant is Assisting These Region’s Programs, and Your Region Could be Next

The SCCA® Foundation Region Development Grant is undoubtedly something you’ve read about — and perhaps your Region has even considered applying for it — but for whatever reason, you’ve held back. The thing is, you should submit that grant application as soon as you can, because good things can happen when you do. Case in […]

Hagerty’s Involvement with the SCCA Heats up as Championship Season Arrives

When Hagerty and SCCA® partnered in 2019, with Hagerty becoming the Club’s official insurance partner, nobody knew how deep the involvement would ultimately go. Hagerty would, of course, offer SCCA members discounts on insurance policies as well as invite members of the Hagerty Drivers Club to attend Track Night in America® and Time Trials National […]

For 10 Years, You’ve Helped Track Night Set the Trend — Come Celebrate with Us

Since hosting the first Track Night in America® Driven by Tire Rack on April 7, 2015, at Atlanta Motorsports Park, SCCA’s easy-access track program has changed lives — and that’s not hyperbole. Track Nights have opened access to racetracks from coast to coast, offering a safe-and-sane (and fun) approach to putting everyone on the track, […]

Way back in May when we announced the opening of registration for the Aug. 24-25, 2024, Tire Rack SCCA® Time Trials National Tour at Pitt Race Powered by Hagerty, we talked about what a thrill ride the Pitt Race circuit is. That part is true. We also talked about Pittsburgh natives George Ferris and Jeff […]

Hagerty: Restarting Stalled Projects

Hagerty, the official insurance partner of the SCCA®, has a prolific media component to its business of insurance, valuations, and auctions, and while not all articles apply with a one-to-one correlation to SCCA members, sometimes similarities are too obvious to ignore. For instance, when Hagerty author Zach Bowman penned an article entitled Climbing Out of the […]

SCCA’s Heyward Wagner Promotion Puts Exclamation Point on 10 Years of #funwithcars

April 1, 2014, was no ordinary April Fool’s Day — it marked the first day of employment for Heyward Wagner as part of the Sports Car Club of America® staff. A decade later, Wagner has now been promoted to Vice President, Rally/Solo® and Experiential, recognizing his accomplishments in bringing #funwithcars to all automotive enthusiasts. Prior […]

Summer Track Nights Just Got More Affordable, and You Can Thank Hawk for It

Stop it! No, you stop it! Anyone who has kids (or grew up with siblings who were unable to keep their hands to themselves) knows road trips involve someone screaming “stop” often and loud. It’s arguably the most spoken (or yelled) word during any automotive family adventure. It’s a great American tradition. Despite that, since […]

We’ve Found a Deal That’s (Shall We Say) Too Shocking to Pass Up

There’s something about not paying retail for quality performance goodies that really hits the spot. Not only is it a bona fide (anecdotal) fact that discounted parts make you faster, but saving money on go-fast goodies also makes it easier to have #funwithcars at SCCA® events — and the more events you participate in, the […]

Hagerty: Fun (and Affordable) 21st Century Cars

Hagerty, SCCA’s official insurance partner, is known for many things, like its specialty insurance that covers on-track events (like SCCA’s Track Night in America and Time Trials National Tours), along with tracking car valuations, running auction sites (like this one and this one), as well as offering a Drivers Club. It’s easy to realize that […]

Ten Years on, Track Night is the Gift That Keeps on Giving, and It’s a Gift You Can Give, Too

The world was a different place 10 years ago. In 2015, Russia, Ukraine, Germany, and France reached an agreement on the war in eastern Ukraine, Windows 10 was released, Queen Elizabeth II became the longest-reigning British monarch in history, Dieselgate was barely a rumor, NASA found liquid on Mars, SpaceX landed its first uncrewed Falcon […]

Hagerty Literally Brings the Party — And Discounts, and Insurance, and…

When a company wants to partner with the Sports Car Club of America®, we ask ourselves a variety of questions — but the biggest, most important one is what value it brings to Club members. If the potential partner’s values don’t align with those who make up the SCCA, then it’s a pass. When that […]

Mark Your Calendar for this Ticket to Ride: Track Night and Time Trials at Pitt Race

George Ferris Jr. built his career in Pittsburgh, PA, during the late 1800s as a civil engineer with a passion for bridge construction. In 1893, he designed and built a wild, daunting, 264-foot tall amusement ride that seemed implausible. Countless similar spinning contraptions have been reproduced for more than 130 years, and most still bear […]

Hagerty: Discovering the Unique Pontiac Tojan

If you’re a member of the Sports Car Club of America®, you’re likely also an automotive enthusiast. Be it behind the wheel, wrenching in the paddock, or volunteering on the corners, no matter which way you choose to participate in the Club, cars are what surround you. What comes with that enthusiasm is a love […]
