  • Finishing position during the National Championship race on Sunday - 40 points max [same scoring as regional races]
  • Final standings are the sum of parts 1 and 2 - 50 points max
  • Ties will be resolved by the finishing position in National Championship race on Sunday
  • Finishing position for Race 1 (Saturday) determines start position for National Champtionship race (Sunday)

 

The two races at Nationals will also count towards regional championships:

  • Finishing position within chapter determines points - 40 points max [e.g. 4th overall but 1st in chapter = 40 points]
  • Drivers must declare their region prior to Saturday's race
  • Two races at Nationals may be used as regional Race 9 and Race 10 for credit in first bullet of previous section

Once at the track, each driver and crew member will need to check in at  SCCA Pro Registration pick up their credentials. At the moment, SCCA Pro is planning to have a separate 944 Cup window at Registration which will be run out of a building outside of the main track complex, located up at the RacePlex, specifically across from Synery Racing.  Each Entrant  gets 5 passes to get into paddock/pits. one for the driver and 4 for crew. If  any of the crew need to be able to get on pit lane with a Hot Pass, they must be SCCA members.
