The Central Carolinas Region is proud to offer a new program designed to help novice time trial drivers and road racers get started. We realize getting started in racing is expensive and we’d like to help. Through the SECOND GEAR program, we have collected an inventory of used racing gear that was donated by drivers in the southeastern racing community for your use. This gear is being offered at no charge for competition in specific SCCA SEDIV events. We have a variety of sizes in drivers suits, gloves, and shoes which will allow you to put your money in other areas so you can make your first racing experiences affordable.
The CCR-SCCA family extends it’s sympathies to the family and friends of Rich Shafer. Rich lost his life after a racing indicent over the weekend. He drove the Cool Shirt Chevy Camaro in SCCA time trials and hillclimbs. The company and product he worked with, Cool Shirt, has been a great benefit to racers, firefighters, doctors and more.
Rich was 66 at the time of his death. He will be missed by everyone that has known him.
Flowers are to be sent to:
Christ Our Hope Lutheran Church
2165 Highway 138 SW
Riverdale, GA 30296-1700
(770) 997-7117
And should not be delivered until 1pm on Sunday.
In lieu of flowers donations can be accepted and should be sent to Christ Our Hope Lutheran in the name of Rich Shafer. These donations will be used for causes dear to Rich’s heart.
We are limited to 50 cars/100 entries. We have to restrict paddock parking to a 25×25 foot area per competition car. Enclosed trailers that will fit in this 25 foot square will be allowed. Open trailers will continue to park in the future hotel site. Spaces will be assigned as you pre-register. Exception: Sponsors of the event. The paddock area is also the helicopter landing zone. Crew, worker and guest cars will have to park in designated parking areas. As parking for competitors, workers, officials, property owners and spectators is limited, please cooperate with all officials. Competitors and workers/officials will be provided CCR parking stickers at Friday registration to identify your vehicles so they will not be delayed entering Eagle’s Nest. An SCCA official will be posted at the gate to assist with entry Friday, Saturday, and Sunday. Wrist bands or other methods of identification will be issued during Friday registration for drivers, crew and workers. The I D’s will prevent you from having to pay to gain entry to the event.
