Autocross/Solo
II events are low to medium speed auto racing
events; they are often run on parking lots and
airport runways, although street events and events
at Go Kart tracks sometimes take place. Generally
a course will be defined using traffic cones.
One driver at a time negotiates a course laid
out with the cones, or pylons, testing their skill
against the clock. Time penalties are charged
for disturbing cones. In most regions, the penalty
is 2 seconds per cone, although in some places
it may be 1 second.
There is an upper speed guideline for Solo II
which is intended to keep speeds in a domain that
most drivers might have encountered on the streets
and highways; the fastest cars at a Solo II should
not get much over 70mph.
Generally, each driver takes three or four runs
at an event. A driver is awarded the best time
of all runs taken.
Want
to know what class your car would compete in.
Different clubs use different classes and rules
but most use the SCCA car classes. The SCCA also
has a link that shows the updates to their rules.
You can also find some of the new rules and class
information at Jerry Mouton site. There are some
new classes and they are called Street Touring
and Street Modified so be sure to check that site
also.
