In GCR, Section 3.7.2., change as follows:
“(Effective 3/1/2025) Each Conference will award Championships for each Runoffs Majors-eligible class based on points earned in
U.S. Majors Tour Conference and Super Tour races. A competitor driver may enter events in one or more Conferences, but points
only accrue within the Conference in which the event is held. If a single event is designated for multiple Conferences, points are
scored in each Conference. The minimum number of U.S. Majors Tour races per Conference is 10 and the total may vary; a driver
shall count the best 8 finishes in a conference for the class championship. Point standings are maintained by the SCCA National
Office and posted at www.scca.com.”
In GCR, Section 3.7.4., change as follows:
“(Effective 3/1/2025) SCCA schedules and conducts an event each year called the SCCA Runoffs, open to all U.S. Majors Tour
participants and Division Championship participants who meet the invitation qualifications. A competitor driver must qualify in
the same class(es) in which he is entering the Runoffs, though he may compete in any car eligible for the class(es).
The SCCA Runoffs determine the SCCA National Champion in each eligible class.
SCCA publishes the Supplemental Regulations defining driver and car eligibility and other event details.
1. Invitations to the SCCA RunoffsThree Two distinct paths exist for qualifying for a Runoffs invitation. Invitations are issued to all drivers in invited Runoffs-eligible
classes based on the following minimum qualifications:
1. U.S. Majors Tour Super Tour and/or Conference Events
A competitor driver must meet participation and performance requirements.
1. Participation Requirements
Participate on track in a minimum of three (3) separate U.S. Major Super Tour and/or Conference event weekends and have a
minimum of three (3) individual race finishes, all in the same class. Events may be a part of any Conference.
A driver may substitute two (2) Regional-sanctioned weekends for one (1) of his three (3) Majors weekend participation
requirements. Eligible Regional weekends shall occur between the conclusion of the previous Runoffs and a date not less than
two (2) weeks prior to the start of the Runoffs or as otherwise specified in the Runoffs supplemental regulations.
This replaces Majors event participation but not the Majors finish or points requirements.
Endurance races are not eligible.
1. Performance Requirements
A competitor driver must meet one of the following:
1. Finish in the top 10 of a Conference’s point standings in class, or, in classes with more than 20 participants, finish in the
top 50 percent.
2. Finish in the top 50 percent of the Super Tour point standings following the last Super Tour/ Majors race.
Example: If 100 drivers participate in a class within a Conference or the Super Tour in the current race season, the top 50, who
score any points, will receive an invitation.
1. FV and FF are exempted from the performance requirement for the 2025 season.
2. Defending Runoffs Race Winner
In addition, a current defending Runoffs race winner, who has not met the Runoffs invitation requirements in 3.7.4.A.1 or 2, may
be accepted as an entrant even if he did not meet the participation requirements of 3.7.4.A.1 or 2.
1. The entry will not be included in the total count of Runoffs invitations.
1. He may compete only in the class(es) being defended, though he may compete in any car eligible for the
class(es).
2. He will not bump anyone from the field who was invited based on the qualifications in 3.7.4.A.1 or 2.
3. A driver may not invoke the provisions of this section in two consecutive years in the same class, even if he
repeats as a Runoffs race winner.
4. Additional Requirements
The driver must hold a current SCCA Full Competition License.”
