Gap is the driver's best lap in a session against the fastest lap in their class in that same session (zero is fastest in class), shown as time lost and as a share of the lap, so conditions cancel out and tracks can be compared. Typical is the median session.

Letters to Fastrack

T4 Support letter #39734

See letter #39230 in February Fastrack.

Allow Legends Crossover

#39385 from Stephen Blethen · Taken care of · Minutes (2025-12 Fastrack)

We appreciate your perspective and feedback. Please see response to letter 39384 in current Fastrack.

Allow Legends Cars to Race

#39384 from Stephen Blethen · Taken care of · Minutes (2025-12 Fastrack)

We appreciate your perspective and feedback. Legends cars have a regional ruleset and our allowed to run in the same group as
Production cars at Regional events and Conference Majors events. The Club Racing board is not interested in combining these
cars into Production classing.

T4 Request to Make SCCA National Championship More Competitive

#39380 from Stephen Blethen · Taken care of · Minutes (2026-01 Fastrack)

In letter #37997, earlier this year, we asked to remove the camber limit. It will be removed as of 1/1/2026.

Podium Celebrations inclusive of All Participants

#37556 from Stephen Blethen · No action required · Minutes (2025-02 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. The Club Racing Board appreciates your comments. The locations of impound and the podium are
specific to the layout of each facility and are determined by the officials who organize individual events. It would not be feasible
for SCCA to require impound and the podium to be placed in close proximity to each other at every event.

#37554 from Stephen Blethen · Taken care of · Minutes (2025-05 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. Please see letter #37997 for survey results and conclusions.

Support for letter 37307

#37355 from Stephen Blethen · No action required · Minutes (2025-01 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. The Club Racing Board appreciates your comments. The Runoffs is certainly a method to leverage
participation during the season and always has been. Keep in mind that prior to the Majors/HST format a Runoffs entry was
achieved by participation and finishing position in National races held in your home Division. There was no Regional path to
Runoffs. You may now qualify by participation/finish in any Conference with the ability to utilize the 2+2 path which allows one
to count Regional Participation in lieu of Majors; the number of participants who utilize that path is very small. Please see the
response to letter #37307 in this Fastrack.

Fuel Testing Penalties

#37096 from Stephen Blethen · No action required · Minutes (2024-12 Fastrack)

Thank you for your comments. The Runoffs Supplementary Regulations are very specific about fuel requirements that must be
followed at the Runoffs and the penalties that will be incurred for violation. The GCR Advisory Committee recommends that Club
Racing Board and Club Racing staff revisit this for 2025.

Bring “Club” back to Sports Car CLUB of America

#37093 from Stephen Blethen · No action required · Minutes (2024-12 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. Impound All has been done post race on occasion, often times however there is an issue of space. We
agree that comradery is an important and sometimes lacking component of our events.

T2/T3/T4 Removal of Camber Limits

#37092 from Stephen Blethen · Taken care of · Minutes (2025-05 Fastrack)

Procedure change for RFA for all club racing

#31360 from Stephen Blethen · No action required · Minutes (2021-12 Fastrack)

Thank you for your letter. GCR Section 6.11.1. E. stipulates that a driver shall stop at a designated location to allow stewards to
review incidents. It is the investigating stewards’ responsibility to determine whether an RFA is the appropriate action to be
taken. We agree that incidents where one or both cars cannot continue are more significant than ones with incidental contact
and should be treated appropriately.
