Ever wonder how grassroots motorsports clubs like the SCCA keep the tires turning? In this final episode of our three-part series, SCCA VP Hayward Wagner dives deep into the growth engine that is Track Night in America and the enduring culture of SCCA Autocross (Solo). We pull back the curtain on how these programs became the largest participation events in the club. Learn the core philosophy behind Track Night's massive success ("Fastest way to get on track") and the biggest challenge facing the SCCA: inventory (finding available racetracks!). Plus, Wagner addresses the biggest Autocross debateâthe challenges of rule evolution and the future of the Solo Nationals at Lincoln.
