Hey Everyone,
We are going to take this opportunity to switch over to the new rule set. That will be the 2021 Rules. Please make sure you have downloaded the free rules and familiarized yourself with any changes.
Here’s a link: https://www.scca.com/downloads/53335-2021-scca-solo-rule-book/download

As we count down the days to our first race of 2021, please review our new Covid safety guidelines for Grid.
The grid layout itself is not physically different from how it has been, we just need to ask drivers to please park in the grid as shown in the diagram below. This will help us maintain the mandated social distancing measures to keep our events running in compliance.
See you all in about a week!

Covid Grid Guidlines

Aloha SCCA Hawaii Drivers!

The Oahu Solo Chiefs are very happy to announce the restart of our Solo Events at Aloha Stadium!

The first set of dates are January 31 and February 7. Check our 2021 Event & Pre-reg schedule here

But before you do, it is extremely important for you to read through the information in this email AND in the COVID Safety Guidelines that will be implement at our events as while they are similar, things will not always operate as they have recently, or for the last 5, 10, 20, or 40 years that you’ve been autocrossing! It is everyone’s responsibility to social distance and take the necessary precautions to prevent the spread of COVID. The Chiefs have worked very hard to keep our members as safe as possible and to allow us to host events in compliance with City, County and State standards.
