    Once Upon a Wire Wheel

    Once Upon A Wire Wheel by Bernie and Norm Koglin This is the first in a series of articles recalling a few highlights from the fifty year history of the Chicago Region SCCA. Most of the information in this article is found in a history of the Club’s early years written by Fred Wacker some years ago. We also wish to thank Burdie Martin for the loan of his copies of the very earliest issues of PISTON PATTER which are an invaluable source. In the Beginning…… 1948- 1954 The term “sports car” would have meant very little to a vast majority of Americans in the years right after World War II. Then, MG TC’s began arriving in the U.S. and a few people started to take notice. Among them was Fred Wacker, who purchased one of the first little British cars in early 1948. In May of that year, Fred and Bud Seaverns drove the MG to Indiana-polis for the 500. After the race they were caught in the usual traffic jam, and came across Bill Spear and Sam Bailey, a couple of New Yorkers, in a Bentley. A mutual interest in their respective cars led to introductions, and in due course Fred and Bud heard of the “Sports Car Club of America” for the first time. Ownership of a “sports car” was an SCCA membership requirement at that time. Since Fred qualified in that respect, Bill and Sam suggested he become a member of the Club. After joining, Fred discovered there was no Chicago Region.

    Alex Ethier Sponsor Media Kit About Me My name is Alex Ethier and I am a first-year racing driver seeking sponsorship partners. I have recently joined up with Momentum Motorsports, who will be guiding my development as a driver through the coming years. At first I'll be piloting their Formula Continental car, but I'll be graduating to the team's effort in the Formula 4 (F4) Championship in 2017. About My Car My car for 2016 is a Formula Continental, eligible for competition in the F2000 Championship Series as well as countless SCCA (Sports Car Club of America) races across North America. The running costs are low compared to most formula cars, making this one of the most affordable ways to bring your company’s name to the world of professional motorsports. About My Goals My first race weekend (May 13th-15th) will be rounds 3 and 4 of the F2000 Championship at the world-renown Watkins Glen International. I’ll be racing in 2 or 3 more F2000 events this season, and then I’ll be turning my sights to the Formula 4 Championship. My goals for this season are to gain invaluable experience and develop the skills I need to have a successful future career. Sponsorship Details The F2000 Championship is an incredibly competitive series that supports the Formula Atlantic Championship, which brings in great media attention. Series at this level have several press releases published throughout every race weekend. These press releases circulate freely around amateur racing publications and forums, and live timing and scoring is available on the series’ website.

    SCCA Pro Conv Pres Notes 2016

    2016 CONVENTION PRESENTATION SELECTED NOTES FROM THE PRESENTATION | SATURDAY 23 JANUARY 2016 PARTICIPATING: Derrick Walker, President, Steve Oseth, Vice President and General Manager. Pat di Natale, Chief Steward. Jim Averett, Series Chief Steward. Kathy Maleck, Field Staff Coordinator. Additional members may be added by session time. Introducing Derrick Walker, incoming President of SCCA Pro Racing Derrick is new to SCCA Pro, but he’s been around racing a bit. Some 40 years ago he got his start working with the Brabham Formula One team – the owner was Bernie Ecclestone. He went on to become a team manager and owner himself. His teams have won the Indy 500 at least 4 times. Prior to joining SCCA Pro he was Director of Operations for IndyCar. SCCA PRO RACING HISTORY AND CONTINUED SUCCESS Although the concept of SCCA Pro Racing dates from the mid 1950’s, our on track history dates back more than 40 years ago with the creation of the United States Road Racing Championship in 1963. From these beginnings grew the Can-Am Challenge, Trans Am, Formula 5000 through the 1960’s and 70’s. SCCA Pro Racing today is continuing to sanction, officiate and organize a wide variety of highly successful professional race series that showcase some of the best racing not only in this country, but in the world. THE SCCA PRO RACING SERIES AND INTERNATIONAL INVOLVEMENT Pirelli World Challenge is the showcase for some of the most sophisticated GT cars in the world. It enjoys tremendous manufacturer involvement and this year is aligned with the Blancpain GT series.

Compared to stick- and-ball sports, there are both too many and not enough ways to go from racing midgets to competing with giants. By eradicating barriers to entry and focusing on attracting and developing young racers into seasoned drivers, the F4 U.S. Championship is forging a clear path. A straightforward formula and focus on track time puts drivers in a position to succeed.

A NEW START Throughout its history, both the SCCA Inc. and SCCA Pro Racing have encouraged open wheel racing in North America. Their support of the F1600, F2000 and Formula Atlantic programs has kept these classes at the forefront of open wheel motorsports, both at the club and pro level.
