Dusten, I am new to this to. I attended a SCCA meet a few weeks ago, and did a ride-along with a friend of mine (99 Impreza RS). He's got me dreamin' of screamin' down the track in my '99 SVT. Let me know if your plans for a 'Tour representation begin to gel. I'm seriously interested.Sadeeq Sadeeq@home.com

Neons are quick. I saw a few do pretty well.
I went to an event at Bremerton airport. We were there at 7:00AM for the morning rounds, and there were about 5 cars there before us. Turnout was healthy... about 50 cars racing.
Tell your friend to check out the SCCA site. I think there's info there.

I have checked out the site, which are the events you go to? Solo 1? Before i try anything though, the GL is going away and being replaced next spring with and SVT hopefully a 99 or 2000.

I think it was SOLO 1, but I'm not too sure.
Are you gonna make it to the SIR track event?
I'd love some company.

FYI Solo II is individuals going through a course being timed. Solo I is cars going through an identical course side by side. I haven't seen Solo I anywhere except national championships. I'm betting you saw Solo II, it's the most popular form.

NP there are others who are more conversant with the rules on here, I just happen to know the answer to that one. I'd love to try a Solo I event once.
