Prospective Members Workshop

Sunday March 28, at 1:00 pm
Chicago Indoor Racing, Addison (map)
New members and anyone else interested in learning about how to get involved in motorsports activities is invited to attend this workshop. The event is free, and will feature presentations on our programs, including Solo and Club Racing.
This is a great way to find out how you can get involved, and to get answers to any questions you might have.

Would you like to get involved in racing but just don't know where to start

Join us Saturday, April 24 and take our Starting Line Tour. The Starting Line Tour is our way of introducing car enthusiasts to the Chicago Region, Sports Car Club of America and how the hundreds of club volunteers staff various race tracks in support of club racing and professional racing. This is the road to "the best seat in the house". You will be provided with an overview of a variety of volunteer areas, which we refer to as "specialties". If you are interested in learning more about any specialty area, we will arrange for you to return to that specialty area for a one on one experience. There is a party at the end of the race day on Saturday and you are invited to attend (no cost). Click here for your Starting Line Registration Form

SCCA Road Rally

Information & Nationwide Schedule

Rallies are non-speed skill events which are conducted on public roads - at or below legal speeds. The types of rallies put on by SCCA range from fun rallies (gimmick type) to time-speed-distance (TSD) rallies.

The most popular and well-known type of rally is the TSD or time-speed-distance rally. In TSD rallies, a driver/navigator team tests it ability to follow a given route at prescribed speeds. Each team is scored on its ability to arrive at unknown control points neither early nor late, but exactly on time. Teams are usually separated into one of two categories of competition based on the equipment they have to aid them in accurately following the designated route at precisely the right time and/or speed. One category is for the teams that depend only on the basic essentials such as the family car, watch, and rally tables. The other category is for the devoted TSD rallyist who uses sophisticated electronic equipment such as special odometers that read to the nearest hundredth of a mile and electronic computers which automatically calculate speed and provide a continuous indication if you are ahead, behind, or on time.
