That GIR event (11/16-17) is a Solo I Trials.... high speed. SCCA License required.

 

Care to elaborate on how we go about getting one?

you also need your car safety prepped for high speed

treat solo1 as club racing without other cars.

hillclimbs are the other main type of race in solo1

 

I thought the Solo I Trials were open to all scca members, I didn't think you had to have a Competition License for the trials, just the Solo I events.

 

I believe the required licence is different than the Club Racing Competition license, but there are four different licenses for Solo 1 that you can obtain depending on which kinds of events you are doing.

I'll try to get more details about the whole thing and post what I find out.

 

well.. regardless of the type of licence.. the point is that your run-of-the-mill, basic SCCA membership licence only applies to solo2 and road rally. extra licences are required for any other type of event driving.

which leads me to a question i never thought of. will the solo2 licence cover rallycross?
