Well, part of the problem was the Trials event wasn't talked up enough before hand and the regular drivers needed to help in recruiting, Me included. Worse most of the regular drivers didn't show. If most of the regulars showed it wouldn't have been a $$ loser. SCCA racing in general will continue fine. some folks have gone to conferance, some do both. Track time is track time! I plan to run a little conferance but want to support the track and club trials program as it's a low cost low risk way to get feet wet and see if it's something you want to do. Otherwise you have to rent someone else's car. For car enthusiasts and tinkerers , like me, I want to know how MY car does as well as spend my driving time in it. There will continue to be club and track trials but a stand alone day (on a Saturday) like this last one is definatly endangered... I think that is to bad.. Where else can you run a non caged car at speed and get an official time. (track days are NOT timed, tho many do try, under the table, it ain't racing.) There is a Friday PDX and Club Trials event in 2 days, but hell I can't take the time off. If any of you can, you should try it out.


How much is it to run trials and do you have to class your car or can you run "time only"? Can you you run stock seat belts? We did the PDX last year and it was okay - I really was hoping for more instruction.

I'd hate to see us lose the SCCA here - competition (between the leagues/confs) helps to keep the sport better and improving and it's always good to have lots of options. I wonder if NASA is going to make it's way up here too? Keep us posted here when events are coming into town. I'll probably be doing a lapping day with BSCC - it's pretty cheap, not timed, but my insurance likes that better
