Default SCCA Accepts NASA Comp License

Have not got all the details but just got email from Topeka that the SCCA BOD have approved NASA comp. licenses for SCCA Regional Club races. NASA people, please come out and play with us.

That is good news!

How do we find the SCCA regional schedules?

It seems SCCA's member participation has dwindled lately, this will help.


No 13/13 rule in SCCA.

From what I see the SCCA regionals are no longer than NASA's.

From all the race results I've seen most at ~30 minutes. Come on down to NASA SE, we have ~ 40 minute races.

And NASA numbers swell. Wonder if there is a correlation?

NE Division http://www.scca.com/divisions.aspx?div=ne

SE Division http://www.sedivracing.org/

Here is the southern California/Phoenix SCCA race calendar:
http://www.calclub.com/maincalendar.htm

Two weeks from now there is a Saturday regional and a Sunday national at Buttonwillow.

June 7-8 there is a double regional at California Speedway. Saturday at 4-6 PM there is a third race, a two hour enduro.


Fastest regards,

Oli

Yeah, but will they accept an FIA license, or my IMSA license, let alone Vintage licenceses like SVRA and HMSA?

Thanks for the info guys, I haven't raced with SCCA since 1985, and I wasn't aware that they accept any other sanctioning organization's license.
