Oregon Region Results at the 2018 National Championship Runoffs

Oregon was well represented at this year’s Runoffs, with drivers in many classes and a strong con-tingent of workers supporting the event.

Bonnie Aarseth has been working race control at the Runoffs for years, and this year she was honored with SCCA’s prestigious Worker of the Year award for her service.

Lance Spiering Wins Gold in Formula 500SONOMA, California (October 20, 2018) – Lance Spiering, of Beaver-ton, Oregon, inherited the Formula 500 National Championship on Saturday evening after finishing second place on track when the first competitor to cross the finish line was found to have a non-compliant car in post-race technical inspection.

On the track, David Lapham kept his No. 2 Hoosier Novakar J10/Suzuki on the rear of Tire Rack pole-sitter Jeff Jorgenson’s No. 64 CTD Motorsports Novakar J10/Rotax in the opening laps, running nose to tail and catching the rear of the Formula F field in the combined-class race on lap six. Lapham took the lead at the start of lap seven and surrendered it back to Jorgenson in Turn 12 on lap nine.

That lead swapped two more times in the following lap, and the pair weaved through traffic together for the next four laps.

Lapham used the Formula F traffic to his advantage on lap 15, making the pass for the lead coming down the hill through Turn 11 and head-ing for the Turn 12 hairpin. The first-time champion timed the traffic perfectly, and it became the pass for the win when Jorgenson contacted a Formula F machine in the hairpin, prematurely ending his day.

Lapham crossed the finish line first, but his Suzuki motor was found to be out of compliance and was moved to the end of the time sheets.

Chasing the pair but never quite in range on the track was Spiering, who was well back of the lead duel but comfortably in front of anyone else to land his first career SCCA podium in the No. 29 Quadrini Racing Invader QC1/Rotax. That podium later became his first gold medal on the official results.

“It’s only my third podium, so it was enjoyable,” Spiering said. “I knew I wouldn’t have the pace to keep up with Jeff and Dave, and as soon as the tires came in those guys took off. There was no way I could keep up with them, so it was a matter of keeping it on track and putting my head down.”

Russell Strate earned his high-est career Runoffs finish with a third-place on the track, which was elevated to second in the No. 9 Hoosier/Mitchell Racing Services Scorpion S1/Rotax, using an ap-propriate saying he learned 43 years ago from SCCA Hall of Famer Bob Bondurant.

“I have to admit, I kind of blew my start,” Strate said. “David, Jeff and Lance got away and my race was trying to keep up with them. It was ‘SCCA’ – smooth, consistent, con-centrate and alert. That’s what got me to here.”

Jack Walbran was elevated to third place in the No. 67 Mitchell Racing Services Scorpion S1/Rotax, his first Runoffs podium in 25 starts.

Jackson Goes Five for Five in GT-3 Runoffs WinsSONOMA, California (October 21, 2018) – Collin Jackson led every lap of the GT-3 race to take home his fifth national championship at the 55th SCCA® National Champion-ship Runoffs® at Sonoma Raceway in California.

Jackson, of Langley, British Colum-bia, started second in the No. 53 Specialty Engineering/Goodyear Nissan 240-SX, qualifying just 0.135 seconds behind Michael Lewis. What shaped up to be a close com-petition between two very familiar and experienced adversaries didn’t disappoint. Jackson wasted no time getting to the front by passing polesitter Lewis in Turn 2 on the first lap. In doing so, he also earned the Sunoco Hard Charger award.

“We were good in different areas. I was really good going down the hill, but Lewis was really good in the brake zones,” explains Jackson. My car was set up on the edge and it was hard keeping it on the bubble.”

Jackson led the whole race, but it wasn’t an easy victory. Lewis hounded him for the entirety of the contest, at times just a car length or two behind. Jackson responded when challenged, gapping Lewis seemingly at will. Tires were going off by the last lap when Jackson broke traction under power, giv-ing Lewis an opportunity. Lewis pushed Jackson hard all the way to the checkered flag, finishing just 0.052 seconds behind in a photo finish.

“I knew that it was a good car and that we’d be strong, but I hadn’t driven one for about 20 years,” said Lewis. “I took a guess at what was the best thing to do and it turns out I probably left a little too much at the end.”

After a DNF in GT-Lite, Taz Harvey and his No. 88 Dublin Mazda/Hoosier Mazda RX-7 took home third in a redemption race. He was unable to match the pace of Jackson and Lewis, but drove a clean race unchallenged from behind while fourth place was contested through-out most of the race.

Gary Bockman crossed the finish in fourth in the No. 09 Bockman & Son Mazda RX-3. Fifth place went to Jose Rodriguez in the No. 59 Mountain View Vacation Rental P R Mazda RX-7.

Bonnie Aarseth Among 2018 Workers of the Year Celebrated at RunoffsSONOMA, Calif. (Oct. 18, 2018) -- From the Runoffs to the Hoosier Racing Tire Super Tour, U.S. Majors Tour to regional weekends, SCCA road racing events are made possible thanks to the tremendous effort of SCCA workers. And each year a handful of workers are recognized for their enormous contribution. Those individuals are bestowed with Worker of the Year honors, presented by Mazda.

“More than 200 road racing events, both national and regional, are conducted by the SCCA each year across the United States,” said Michael Cobb, SCCA President & CEO. “Such a Herculean task simply couldn’t be achieved without the thousands of incredibly helpful and highly-skilled volunteers who are part of this Club. Worker of the Year awards recognize a handful of these dedicated volunteers. To the winners and everyone who helped pull off SCCA events in 2018, I wholeheart-edly say ‘thank you’ for your passion and participation.”

Award recipients have shown dedi-cation throughout the season to their Specialty, events, Region, competi-tors, fellow workers and the SCCA; exhibited strong skills, good leader-

ship, and a willingness to go above and beyond what is expected; and provide excellent customer service to everyone encountered. SCCA mem-bers submitted Worker of the Year nominations, and winners were then selected by the SCCA National staff with input from Division leadership.

The Flagging & Communications Worker of the Year is Bonnie Aarseth of the Oregon Region. Professional, calm, heart of a teacher, sweet, funny and friendly are just some of the words used to describe her. A longtime Club member, she has trained many new workers across the country and continues to provide mentorship and counsel.

Two members of SCCA’s Chicago Region, Bev Heilicher and John Sutton, were honored with Worker of the Year awards. Heilicher was named Steward Worker of the Year because she travels extensively to work events hosted by different regions in different divisions. This allows her to not only share her knowledge and experience but also learn new ways of doing things. She has been the Chief Steward of many events, including the June Sprints. She has been the face of the Com-

petitor Services Center at the Runoffs for years and is always the first to arrive to make sure the Stewards’ of-fices are prepared for the event. She is one of the most committed SCCA members, works tirelessly behind the scenes and strives for excellence in event execution.Meanwhile, Sutton was honored as Starter Worker of the Year as he has recruited a large group of starters over the years and provided on-the-job training. He is a leader and mentor, committed to providing encouragement to all and exempli-fies the SCCA standard of excellence.

Lee Stanley, of the Buccaneer Region, is the Grid/Pit Worker of the Year. He serves as the Divisional Adminis-trator for Pit & Grid in the Southeast Division and has been the Chief of Pit Lane for the Runoffs since 2015. For Stanley, a weekend at the race track is an escape from regular life and allows him to just focus on what’s in front of him. He enjoys the face-to-face interaction with drivers and teams and his fellow workers, and has certainly been a valued member of the Club.

Sharon West, of Land O’ Lakes Re-gion, earned the Registration Worker

of the Year award. An SCCA member for over 35 years, she worked her way to a National license in 2012 and has since served as Chief for many events in the Central Division. Her willingness to learn and seek out new information has made her an invaluable asset to the specialty.

Timing & Scoring Worker of the Year went to Carol Reber of the Washing-ton D.C. Region. Not only does she work tirelessly for T&S, but she also provides help and support to many other specialties and competitors. For years, Reber has been a regular member of the Runoffs T&S Team and thoroughly plans and prepares months leading up to the event. Last year, on her own, she stepped up to assist the Hoosier Racing Tire SCCA Super Tour, traveling to events across the country. She is generous, kind, funny and an important part of SCCA.

Scrutineer Worker of the Year was received by Ann Bowling of the Arkansas Region. She has traveled all over the country working in tech at regional races, Conference Majors and Hoosier Super Tour events. Bowling always greets everyone with a Member Services attitude, is eager to learn, help and do whatever the specialty needs to deliver great tech service. Described as energetic and smart, she quickly adapts to new assignments and her technical versatility makes her an essential part of race weekends.

The Emergency Services Worker of the Year is Steven Hobbs of the Cal Club Region. A mechanic by trade, he cares for the Region’s emer-gency services fleet. He works every Region event, serves on the Region Board and spends his spare time re-cruiting new members. He is quick to jump in and help, always has a

positive attitude and supportive of everyone’s ideas. He has a can-do attitude and embodies SCCA’s new Welcoming Environment statement which supports the Club’s mission of fueling a safe, fun and exciting motorsports experience for automo-tive enthusiasts.

Race Administration Worker of the Year is Mark Senior of the North Carolina Region. Cool, calm and collected, he is a quiet, hard-working guy capable of adapting to handle any situation. He is efficient, easy to work with, has a great can-do attitude and is a great example of how to execute Race Administration duties.

Opheim Takes Second in Formula AtlanticSONOMA, California (October 21, 2018) – Mirl Swan from Browns-burg, Indiana, took the lead on the start, held off the field on two restarts and drove his No. 66 Swan Motorsports/Hoosier Swift 016a Mazda to the Formula Atlantic (FA) win – his third SCCA® National Championship Runoffs® victory.

“I focused on getting a really good start, and it was a really good start,” Swan said about the lead he built up before a full-course yellow brought the field back to his mir-rors.

Swan had engine trouble early in the week and it looked like the racing gods might be conspiring against him each time the full course yellow came out, but the eventual winner wasn’t upset at all.

“I was actually really happy be-cause this was the most physically demanding racetrack I’ve ever raced on,” Swan said. “I could use the break.”

Antony Opheim, driving the No. 31 Ralt RT41 Toyota finished second, but not after a hard-fought battle with Graham Rankin which saw the pair swap second place a few times.

“I could get underneath him, but he would pull on me,” Opheim said. “I was able to tuck under him into (Turn) 10 and it was a drag race. I’m glad both of our brakes stuck because that could have been ugly for both of us.”

Opheim would stay ahead of Rankin’s No. 21 G+C Swift 014a for the rest of the race.

“Graham showed me around the track a few months ago,” Opheim said. “Maybe he’s regretting it now.”

Rankin started in the sixth spot and earned the Sunoco Hard Charger Award for his run to the podium.

“We didn’t get the best qualifying this week but managed to get going and pick people off, Rankin said, “We kept it clean and had a lot of fun today.”

Dwight rider, in the No. 10 Ralt RT41 Toyota, finished fourth, and Paul Ravaris, driving the No. 5 Madhatter Golf/CR3 Capital Elan Pro Formula Mazda, came home in fifth.

Harlan Earns Second in GT-LiteSONOMA, California (October 19, 2018) – Troy Ermish, of Tracy, Cali-fornia, won from pole in the GT-Lite (GTL) class during the 55th SCCA® National Championship Runoffs® at Sonoma Raceway.

Joe Harlan, in the No. 80 Top Tech Motorsports/Nissan/Hoosier Nissan 240-SX, battled through a spin and late-race challenge from Jonathan Goodale to bring home his vessel in second place. Though Har-lan has engineered for other drivers at Sonoma, he drove his first laps in June. He describes Sonoma as, “the hardest track I’ve ever driven. My game was to take it easy and keep my tires and brakes under me.”

In trying to pass Peter Zekert in Turn 4, Harlan realized he didn’t have the room needed. “Peter’s a re-ally good friend and I really didn’t want to turn him around, so I spun the car.” Harlan managed to stay ahead of Jonathan Goodale without losing any positions and close the race out in second place after Zekert retired.

Jonathan Goodale didn’t make it easy for Harlan, challenging him for the remainder of the race. Goodale, piloting the No. 4 MazdaSpeed/Hoosier/Hawk/Summit Mazda MX-5, eventually finished half-a-second behind Harlan for third place, his second Runoffs podium. To get to Sonoma, Goodale battled

through an entire summer of me-chanical setbacks, most of which were resolved through the help of fellow competitors. “It’s been a comedy of errors, but that’s what this is. It’s you and your friends doing the best you can.”

McAllister take Silver in GT-2 After Challenging RaceSONOMA, Calif. (Oct. 20, 2018) -- A very competitive class, GT-2 did not disappoint Saturday during the SCCA® National Championship Runoffs® at Sonoma Raceway in California. After 20 laps around the 12-turn, 2.52-mile circuit, Spencer Trenery reached the checkered flag before everyone else to claim his very first victory at the Runoffs on his birthday.

Trenery, of Berkeley, California, started the race on pole in his No. 5 Fantasy Junction Chevrolet Camaro. Alongside him was multi-time Run-offs champion Andrew Aquilante in the No. 33 Phoenix/Hoosier/Hawk Ford Mustang. Trenery, who has been running at Sonoma Raceway for more than 20 years, had a plan for the start before the race -- but things don’t always go as planned.

“He aced the start and drove it in super hard and deep into turn two,” Trenery said about Aquilante grabbing the lead early. “Rather than fight him, I just decided to get in behind.”

Trenery pressured Aquilante hard the first third of the race. On lap seven, he was able to push through in Turn 11 to take the lead. Aqui-lante fell back and, on lap 13, pulled into the pits and retired from the race.

With Aquilante out, the runner-up battle got heated between Brad McAllister, in the No. 24 Periodon-tal Associates Ford Mustang, and Michael McAleenan, in the No. 2 Smith Alling/Lowe Group Racing BMW M3 racecar. McAleenan was holding off a charging McAllister when he spun with only a couple laps remaining, handing the second-place finish to McAllister -- his first Runoffs podium.

“I made a couple attempts to get around Michael in traffic,” McAl-lister said. “It was going to be pretty tough to catch him. But he spun in turn 11 and I was right there to capitalize. So, I got a little lucky on that one.”

The fight for third was equally exciting as Preston Calvert, in the No. 77 Calvert Dynamics/Phoenix Chevrolet Corvette, worked hard to hold off Mark Boden’s No. 46 Fall-Line Motorsports Porsche 997.1 GT3 Cup car. It was tough, but Calvert succeeded.

“When Mark’s tires started to come in, he really started to pressure me,” Calvert said after the race. “I race with Mark a lot, and he’s a tremen-dous racecar driver. It’s very hard to keep him behind you.”

Boden secured the fourth finishing position, and Sean Wheeler, in the No. 6 TC Design Motorsports BMW M3, finished fifth. The Sunoco Hard

Charger award went to Danny Malfatti in the No. 55 Malfatti Motor Sports Chevrolet Impala who started 21st and finished in 14th position.

Nakato Takes Third Place in Touring 3, Henrichot FifthSONOMA, Calif. (Oct. 21, 2018) -- Race drivers are trained to keep their eyes “up,” always looking ahead down the track. But Marshall Mast, of Narvon, Pennsylvania, admittedly spent nearly 75 percent of the Touring 3 (T3) race focused on rearview mirrors as he made his way to victory and his first Sports Car Club of America® National Championship during the 2018 Runoffs at Sonoma Raceway in California.

Mast, who is also a semi-truck driver for the Phoenix Performance race team, qualified on pole and moved to the lead Sunday morning in his No. 31 Phoenix/Hoosier/Hawk/Ford Ford Mustang GT. Mark Drennan, in the No. 10 TFB Performance/WRR BMW SpecE46, fell in behind Mast, and the No. 1 Fiesta Auto Group/Hoosier/G-Loc Nissan 350Z of Derek Kulach secured third.

“I just gave it my all,” Mast said bout his 20-lap race on the 12-turn, 2.52-mile circuit. “That was awe-some. That was crazy. It’s surreal right now.”

Drennan, who won the Runoffs Spec Miata race Saturday, claimed the runner-up T3 spot.

While Mast and Drennan were sorting out first and second, a great battle for the final T3 podium spot developed behind them. Kulach had been caught by Olivier Henrichot in the No. 77 Rhom Innovations/Hard Motorsports BMW SpecE46. But Henrichot faded and was passed by Eddie Nakato in the No. 28 AR Auto Service/Adrenaline Racing BMW SpecE46 racecar. He then got by Kulach as the two worked through traffic in the waning laps to earn his first-ever Runoffs podium appearance.

“It was a bit of a longshot for us. We knew we didn’t have the outright pace to be out front,” Nakato said. “The key was to stay clean and stay in the race, and it did pay off.”

Kulach was able to bring his car home in fourth, and Henrichot was fifth.

The Sunoco Hard Charger award went to William Hendrix, in the No. 101 Aponte Rios Racing Nissan 350Z, who started 14th and finished in the 10th posi-tion.

Monty Holt’s Campaign Statement for Area 13 Director

My name is Monty Holt and I am asking you to elect me to be your Director for Area 13. I have been involved with the SCCA and the Northwest regions since 1978. I have traveled across the county going to different race track’s which has allowed me the opportunity to see how other regions operate their racing, rally and auto-cross programs.

The competition for the motorsports dollar is affecting the Regions in our Area. The Regions, like any other business need to find ways to stay competitive and relevant. It is also important that SCCA help the Regions and that would be my job to lobby and obtain the help that would be needed. To grow our business it takes hard work and a vision of what is needed. With your help we can achieve our goals to make the Northwest, Oregon, Arctic Alaska, Big Sky, Montana, Snake River and Southwest Montana regions successful and relevant

I have a number of ideas that will work but it will take your help but it will take time and the support of the Board of Directors and you the SCCA members. When I was the RE of Cal Club we implemented some new ideas that allowed us improve cost control, communication and to stay focused on our goals.

A quick summary of my back-ground in motorsports:

• Cal Club Board member and after serving a year I was elected to be Regional Executive

• Corner worker, crew member, competitor, Series Administrator – NASPORT

• Motorsports Parts and Fuel business

• Consultant

• Worked with Nissan Motors-ports parts program and Pur-chasing Manager for NPTI GTP program

I know that with your help we can make improvements that will benefit all. We have SCCA to help us and it would be my job to help the Board help us grow. I know that

I can do this with your help and support.

Thank you for your support and hopefully your vote.

Regards,Monty Holt(360) 859-3595

15 Oregon Region SCCA

Hi, I’m Jeff Zurschmeide. Most of you have met me before, but if you haven’t met me yet, I’d like to introduce myself.

I’ve been an SCCA member for nearly 30 years, and in that time I’ve been a driver in Road Racing, Auto-cross, RoadRally, and RallyCross. I ran my first Autocross at age 16.

Within SCCA I’ve been a race worker, a steward, and an elected regional official responsible for budgets and participation.

In my life outside SCCA, I run a small business in automotive and motorsports publishing. I write sto-ries and take photos for magazines, newspapers, and websites.

Here’s why I’m running to repre-sent SCCA Area 13 on the national Board of Directors. and what I plan to do if elected.

SCCA is a complex organization, with elected leadership at both the regional and the national levels. The two layers of club leadership have very different jobs, but the end goal is the same: to foster a healthy and growing community in all the forms of racing that SCCA sanctions.

At the regional level, we’re con-cerned with raising attendance, con-trolling costs, and providing events that are safe, fair, and fun. I’ve lived this first-hand while serving as Road Racing Director and Regional Executive of Oregon Region.

At the national level, the goals are the same, but the national board is charged with looking after the health of SCCA nationwide.

I believe that in order for SCCA to thrive nationally, we need healthy regions that have the freedom to decide how best to meet the needs of their members.

The primary job of the national or-ganization is to support our regions by providing a solid foundation of rules and support, with the flexibil-ity to allow regions to provide the

types of events and the competition classes that their members prefer.

To do that, SCCA needs a board that makes smart management deci-sions. The current board is doing a good job, and my goal is to keep the national board focused and to keep SCCA financially sound.

That means continuing to listen to the regions and individual competi-tors on national issues such as the location and nature of national championship events, and keep-ing the board focused on SCCA’s core mission of providing the best motorsports opportunities in North America

To do that, SCCA must adjust to the ways people want to enjoy their cars today. Therefore, I think our new ventures like Track Night in America and the Time Trials pro-gram are important and have the potential to keep SCCA in the lead in amateur motorsports.

I’ve got the time and the experience to represent the needs of Area 13, and to keep SCCA healthy for all our regions everywhere.

Thanks for your consideration.

Jeff

First Annual Time Trials Nationals Results from KentuckyIn its first year, the Tire Rack SCCA Time Trials Nationals drew 123 driver entries from across the country, the furthest traveling from Portland, Or. Drivers competed in eight individual events, with the best HotLap and TrackSprint times from each day contributing to the drivers’ placements. In addition to the traditional class placements, eight superlative awards were given during the Koni Podium Celebration to highlight some exemplary individuals. The first was the Top Time of the event. Two cars battled for this honor all weekend: Chris Ingle in his Dodge Viper GTS-R and Andy Hollis in his McLaren MP4-12C. Each claimed the win in their respective classes handedly. The competition stayed close through the last event, but by less than two seconds Ingle took the honors. Not to be left out, Hollis took home some additional hardware, claiming the Top Time in a Street-Legal car. In the spirit of low barriers to entry for the SCCA Time Trials program, the driver with the Top Time in a Car Driven to the event was presented to the sixth-fastest driver overall, Patrick Daugherty. The Top Novice was also recognized. This award was given to the Novice driver who came the closest to winning his or her class. This honor was won by Chris Finnigan, finishing second in Tuner 5. Throughout the weekend, a small band of volunteers made the event possible. Sunday, these volunteers voted for their favorite car from the event. The winner, in one of the most identifiable cars of the event, was Mike Breakey in his 1971 Lotus Seven. One of those volunteers jumped on board just after the event was announced earlier in the year. His enthusiasm for the event and

willingness to help out made him an easy choice for the Spirit of Time Trials Award. From Unlimited 2, Andrew Maffessanti took home this honor. The people at the Grassroots Mo-torsports and Classic Motorsports Magazines presented two awards to drivers who embodied the spirit of their publications. In his 1981 Pontiac Trans Am, John Krupa claimed the Top Classic award. The True Grassroots Award went to two drivers in a 1996 Ford Probe GT with a livery for “Wu Tang Financial,” Stephen Lee and Cody Willett. Complete results from the Inau-gural Tire Rack SCCA Time Trials Nationals can be found on the event page here. Additional news from the event will be available soon.

SCCA Expands Time Trials to include Nationwide Tour

TOPEKA, Kan. (October 9, 2018) – Following the momentum of the Tire Rack SCCA® Time Trials Na-tionals at NCM Motorsports Park, SCCA has announced a 2019 launch of the Tire Rack SCCA Time Trials National Tour. The series will be a coast-to-coast National Level Time Trials program with stops at 10 of America’s best and most challeng-ing tracks. Jon Krolewicz, the SCCA Time Tri-als program manager, sees this as a chance to take the energy and buzz from the NCM event on the road. “We want to capture the positive social and competitive experiences shared by the participants of Time Trials Nationals and bring that same overall vibe to various tracks across the nation.” Krolewicz continued, “By expanding across the country with the series and with the support of Tire Rack, we can bring a best of motorsports experience to a much larger audience while also provid-ing SCCA Regions resources to help them grow their own Time Trials and Track Events.” Matt Edmonds, Executive Vice President at Tire Rack, shares in the

excitement of the concept and sees this as a natural step in the SCCA and Tire Rack relationship. “Tire Rack has long supported SCCA Solo® events and has been on board with Track Night in America Driven by Tire Rack since day one,” Edmonds noted. “We see Time Tri-als as a way to bring these worlds together, as well as engage driving enthusiast and introduce them to Tire Rack and SCCA.” Time Trials National events will not be a points series, but one-off events based on the Tire Rack Solo Championship Tour model, with collaboration between host Regions and National staff leading up to the 2019 Time Trial Nationals, which will be held once again at NCM Motorsports Park. The desire is for the Tire Rack Time Trials National Tour to have at least eight stops, with events currently being planned at Pittsburg Interna-tional Race Complex, High Plains Raceway, Carolina Motorsports Park, Portland international Race-way, GingerMan Raceway, Heart-land Motorsports Park, Thunderhill Raceway and Thompson Speedway

Motorsports Park. Heyward Wagner, Director of Mar-keting and Experiential Programs at SCCA, is excited about the potential of this series for both participants and SCCA Regions. “The feedback we received has been overwhelm-ingly positive; participants have been very vocal about the amaz-ing experience they had, both on and off the track. Our goal now is to take what we have learned to Regions and equip them to be able to build Time Trials and Track Events that can produce the same results.” For Wagner, this means much more than competition. “We want to bring that same level of camaraderie and social interaction everyone enjoyed to other parts of the country, and work with the Regions in an effort to continue to develop this new vision of what Time Trials events can be.” Stay tuned for additional Time Tri-als news at SCCA.com.

US Road Rally Championship Recap

TOPEKA, Kan. (Oct. 8, 2018) -- What does it take to crown a United States RoadRally Challenge (USRRC) champion? This year, the answer for the annual SCCA event was four days, four diverse road rallies, some 500 miles of winding rural Illinois roads across from St. Louis and the Gateway Arch, 58 controls (checkpoints) and the ability to succeed in conditions that ranged from moonless fall nights to intense pop-up afternoon thunder-storms. Hosted for the fourth time by the St. Louis Region, the 24th edition of “the Challenge” Oct. 4–7 was dominated by veteran teams. In Equipped, Bruce Gezon and Bob Morseburg won two of the four events, while Limited and Stock Challenge champions Jeanne Eng-lish and Karl Broberg (Limited) and Jessica and J Toney (Stock) each picked up three class wins. “The roads were great as usual and the concepts were well executed,” Gezon said. “It was nice to have confidence in what the committee intended for us to do. My favorite was Monopoly Redux. Tom Von Hatten did a masterful job of mak-ing an interesting and fun finish to a memorable USRRC.” The weekend opened Thursday night, Oct. 4, with Tulips by Night, an 80-mile Monte-Carlo-style divi-sional Touring rally that featured passage controls. “Tulips” was fol-lowed by the Kaskaskia Trails Na-tional Course Rally on Friday and the Petit Rallye du Rocher National Touring Rally on Saturday. The weekend concluded with Monopoly Redux, a divisional GTA (gimmick) rally Sunday morning, Oct. 7. Monopoly Redux was the sole rally the three winning teams did not dominate. Based on the well-known

board game, the rally was won by the Indianapolis Region’s Wendy Harrison and Craig Beidelman. In Monopoly Redux, Gezon and Morseburg finished second, English and Broberg, 13th, and Jessica and J Toney, eighth. In the weekend’s optional (non-official) classes, the Arctic Alaska Region’s Cheryl Babbe and Gail Engblom won the USRRC’s Rookie Class and David Zemon and Art Zemon won the Gateway Regional Cup. The Rookie Class was designed for teams who, together, had partici-pated in no more than four national or divisional rallies. The Gateway Regional Cup was a special combi-nation of Saturday’s Le Petit Rallye du Rocher and Sunday’s Monopoly Redux that offered new or occasion-al rally teams, or teams from other SCCA disciplines, an opportunity to discover classic SCCA rallying or just spend a weekend having fun with their wheels. Jim Crittenden, SCCA Road Rally Board chair, hosted a Friday night Road Rally Town Hall meeting at

the USRRC and offered these com-ments about the weekend: “I’d like to give a special tip-of-the-hat to our President, Mike Cobb, for attending the USRRC. The folks at the Town Hall meeting appreciated getting to meet Mike and hearing about our organization’s efforts across all SCCA programs. Mike also worked on a checkpoint crew for Saturday’s rally and did a short ride-along for the first two legs in one of the rally cars. The team that took Mike on his ride-along, Chuck Larouere and Rick Beattie, from Pittsburgh, went on to win that rally (Le Petit Rallye du Rocher).” Crittenden added: “On behalf of SCCA, we’d like to extend our sincerest appreciation to Jim Heine, Ron Ferris, Tom von Hatten, and the entire St. Louis Region rally committee for a great weekend. They provided the competitors with the complete range of rally styles (Course, Tour, and GTA), excellent hospitality and banquet, and plenty of opportunities to socialize with old friends and meet new ones. Well done folks, thank you!”

OFFICIALS: Mary Thompson

MEMBERS: None

ABSENT: Todd Harris, Kristen Moore, Rio Rios, Karen McCoy, Jeff Zurschmeide, Carrie Sutherland

CALL TO ORDER: RE called the meeting to order at 6:40

TREASURER: Absent

LOUD PEDAL: Absent

DIRECTORS REPORTS:

ROAD RACE: Absent Tim ad-vised that Kristen is planning to run for the Road Race Director position on the ballot for 2019.

SOLO II: Absent

RALLY: Jacob reported that their efforts at the last event to contribute to two charities had better results than he previously thought.

They were able to provide $790 each to the two groups. The cat shelter was thrilled with plans already for their share and the

wounded vet organization was planning a fishing trip for worthy veterans.

Jacob said the final outcome was aided by the fact that SCCA Ntl helps out with the sanction fee if it is for a charity.

The upcoming event this next weekend will undoubtedly result in a small loss. There is a conflict with the WA group on their event. VINTAGE: Tim was happy to say that the triple had 14 cars entered and no incidents. They did have 2 over prepped cars to deal with.

DIRECTOR I: Aaron felt that the last TNiA went well and was happy to see that a couple of entrants came back on Sat and Sunday to the Time Trials,

He expressed that serving on the BOD has been a good experience for him. While he would have liked to achieve more he was satisfied with his service. DIRECTOR II: Still working on the awards for the end of the year. They will be ready for the Nov annual meeting. PAST REGIONAL EXEC: Absent

ASST: REGIONAL EXE: Derrick talked about efforts to a Grid Life type of event locally. Since this pro-gram is east coast run it is unlikely that they are prepared to come west anytime soon.

He said that SCCA is interested in doing one as a part of Time Trials. This would be a fun event and most likely bring in new people. We would need a draw to get them to the track, such as a band etc. with a name that will draw younger people in.

He will continue to pursue this project and work on ideas.

REGIONAL EXEC:

Tim said that he hopes we can resolve issues of conflicts such as Rally was facing in the future by getting together with like groups and create a calendar that will aid in selecting dates for events that will work for all involved.

The annual meeting plans are in process, since we had our picnic in lieu of a banquet this year, this meeting will be for awards etc., with the region not offering any food.

ADJOURN M/S (Aaron/Allie) M/PRespectfully submitted Mary Thompson
