2014 SCCA Solo Nationals/Pro Solo Finale thread

Early registration for the Solo Nationals ends August 1st and then they jack
up the entry fee. So you have about three weeks to decide whether you want
to join 1100+ of your closest autocrossing buddies for a fun filled week in
beautiful Lincoln Nebraska!

Come for the competition, come for the cool cars, come for the friendships you
make, come for the paddock parties, come for the unpredictable weather.*
Just come!

The Twins have a good number of entries in CS and STX but I know of a few
people who have not registered yet.

The pilgrimage to the Solo Nationals is a bucket list must do for any autocrosser
and there is no time like the present.

I'll be there bringing up the rear in CS. I hope to see you there too.

eric

(*) Nobody goes to lincoln for the weather. I just threw that in for grins 'n giggles...

Typical turnout for nationals is 1100+ entries. We haven't hit 1200 yet, but we've been close.

It is unofficially the largest motorsport event in the US. Probably pretty high up there worldwide.

I know a group of our Canadian talent goes down there, and they said it was quite large, I just never paid attention to the actual number.


that's pretty amazing.


I'll probably make the trek in 2015, I want to see where the c-stock/stx and street/r-comp philosophies end up going.

Good luck to all. Maybe I'll make the adventure one day.

Very curious to see how the twins do in CS and STX this year.

It actually IS officially the largest Motorsport competition in the world based on entries. Right now the plan is to be in town Sunday night through Thursday AM.

Registered in CS, my codriver sounds like he is going to jump ship to ESP to go play with his new-to-him Camaro instead.

Looks like we are going to have a mini-CS competition over at the practice course on Monday! Holy wow I think half the class is registered for at least 1 set of 4 runs!
