Jon Krolewicz and SCCA’s Enduro Racing Series

GHIT 0331:  SCCA’s New Endurance Racing Series with Jon Krolewicz 

Jon Krolewicz has been racing for many years and helped start the Track Night In America Program for the SCCA.  Now he is organizing the new SCCA Enduro series that is kicking of shortly with their first race at Nelson Ledges.  The Sports Car Club of America is one of the oldest performance car organizations. The SCCA holds nationwide races, autocross events (called Solo in SCCA lingo). They also hold training and education events like Track Night in America etc.  The SCCA is looking to expand into endurance racing. They have taken a look at all the other classes and series. The SCCA then developed what they hope to be an easy way to enter the events and hopefully popular.  During this introduction to the series we discuss the logic and development of the Enduro series and how it will be organized and work a the first event.  We hope to have Jon Krolewicz or a friend on to review the first ever event and see how the best laid plans went and what, if anything they find that can be further improved.

Justin Barbry about Track Night In America

GHIT 0263: Justin Barbry – Track Night In America

Do you know anyone who always wanted to drive on track but didn’t think it was possible?

Perhaps you talk to people about driving on track and they don’t understand but you know they would?

Do you want a bigger racing budget?  Perhaps the CFO of the house isn’t involved in our sport (yet).  

Vicki and Bill have attended several Track Night In America events and had a blast.  It is a great way to see if you or someone you know would like driving on track without a lot of prep, money, or time required.  We have often said that autocross was the gateway drug to high performance driving, but what if you don’t have a vendetta (yet) against small orange cones?  This may be the best alternative we have found without jumping in with both feet to a full track weekend etc. We will need to have Justin on again to talk about his driving and racing exploits and hopefully subject him to our F&F Storytime segment.  

If you would like to help grow our sport and this podcast:

You can subscribe to our podcast on the podcast provider of your choice, including the Apple podcast app, Google music, Amazon, and YouTube etc. Also, if you could give our podcast a (5-star?) rating or even better, a podcast review, we would greatly appreciate it and it would help us to grow the passion and sport of high performance driving.

For instance, leaving an Apple Podcast rating is very easy.  If you go to your podcast library, under shows and click on the podcast you can leave a (5?) star rating and enter your review. 

We hope you enjoy this episode!
