R.E. Report
Jim Suhr
The past couple months have been
busy ... and that is good! I have
been to a couple fine autocross
events run by our new SOLO chair
Eric Schmidt, and a super Rallycross
event put together by Chris
Hastings. I was really excited to see
new drivers and spectators catching
a bit of racing fever at these events
and at our last membership
meeting. This is a great trend and I
hope to welcome many new
members. I think a fan favorite at
the last Solo was the demonstration
on converting a Miata hardtop into a
Soft Top ;). Big Thanks to our friends
at OVR helping with Rallycross,
Cincinnati SCCA for the joint SOLO
event, and both Mike Wolf and the
Miami Vally Sports Car Club for the
Double Header Solo events and
sharing of equipment and course
set-up. Also a Huge Thank You the
Eric for the impromptu carpentry
work to repair the trailer door.
The regional racers have been kept
on their toes with the numerous
opportunities at Mid-Ohio, and the
national crowd is deep in Runoffs
preparation (only about a week
away). The Runoffs this year are a
BIG deal. If you have thought about
going (racer, worker or spectator),
this is the year to go.
The final year at Road America +
being the 50th anniversary has
brought about record
registrations. As of this writing,
there are 711 total entries, and in
my class (SM) there are a whopping
72. Friends and top notch racing will
abound, so come on out and join the
fun!
Looking a bit farther down the track,
annual award nominations and
officer nominations for 2014 are
coming up. If you are interested in
being an officer or committee
chairman, please contact Jerry Stem
or myself for more info on the
positions or process. Also start
thinking about who you would like
to nominate for one of WOR's
illustrious awards. There are still
opportunities this season to put
yourself in the running for the less
illustrious awards too (e.g. Cone
Killer, Horse's Ass, etc.). I have some
ideas... See all you at Bullwinkle's on
the 10th!

NASCAR Nationwide Series (NNS) at
Mid-Ohio
What if they had a race and nobody
came? No--what if they had a race
and EVERY body came?
That’s what the NASCAR Nationwide
Series (NNS) promised for its first
appearance at Mid-Ohio, in midAugust. According to the message
boards and practice day buzz,
something well north of 100,000
tickets were sold, before the
race. Some were saying the real
number was closer to 130,000!
By the looks of the crowd on race
day, it was short of 100,000 but it
rivaled Indy and Superbikes in their
heyday. Except that their hay has
been harvested and not much is left
in the barn. This is the only big
show left, if a big show is what you
want. Or what you need to cover
the mortgage.
So why is it that I’m writing about
the “roundy-rounders” for a sports
car publication? Well, I was
attending the Spring OVR National
and in the course of a conversation
with a friend of mine, she lamented
that she missed the Trans Am. But,
what is Nationwide but 40 V-8powered Mustang and Camaro (and
Camry!) race cars blasting around
the track? Count me there!
This had been the NNS weekend at
Circuit Gilles Villeneuve (“sair-kweet
Jee Veel-nuh”) the past few
years. But the “bon homes” must
have gotten a little too full of
themselves, so NNS grabbed their
toys and left town, maybe to never
return. Their miscalculation is MidOhio’s gain, as the track has inked a
three-year deal to host this race.
I was surprised that the Friday
practice, usually very light for most
pro events, seemed rather
“full.” Further consultation with the
message boards suggested an early
arrival (7:30 or so for a 2:30 green
flag). So I dragged myself out of bed
and headed out at O-dark-thirty for
a long and, hopefully entertaining
day of racing.
Which wasn’t too bad, except that
early morning radio is, well, it
isn’t. Since I don’t have XM radio
(serious!) I had to fumble for a
station, finally settling on an 80’s
oldies broadcast. Except that the
first song I tuned in to was “Safety
Dance.” I still can’t get the refrain
out of my mind! S-s-s-s A-a-a-a F-ff-f AAUGHH!
I was mildly surprised at the goodnatured disposition of the
crowd. There was certainly a lot of
traditional NASCAR stuff—shirts,
hats, flags, and bumper stickers—to
proclaim the handful of acres
outside Lexington as a temporary
“NASCAR Nation” but all-in-all,
spectators were well behaved and
friendly. Very much like the
traditional sports car crowd and not
at all like the rowdies that I guess I
was expecting?
As I mentioned, the NNS seemed to
be “like” the old Trans
Am. Ironically, the only undercard
for the weekend was the current
rendition of that old series. While
competitive and with a full field of
35 cars (in three classes), this
seemed to be more of a club
event. SCCA sports car racing
regulars may recognize such names
as Amy Ruman and Peter Gregg,
who were among the front runners.
After Trans Am was lunch, with the
NNS set to be flagged off in midafternoon. Among the “halftime”
entertainment was a segment of
THE, Ohio State University marching
band. At one point, they invited
spectators to join in on what
became a very poor “Script Ohio.”
To be honest, it probably looked
more like a version you would see
on High Street at midnight after the
Michigan game!
Finally it was time for the big
race. Events during practice said
indicated that China Beach is where
the action would be early, so the
crowd really swelled up on the
adjoining hillside. Except—for the
first time in an hundred years--the
race green-flagged at the start-finish
line! By the time the field got to the
backstretch 90 (turn 4? Turn 5?)
they were all in good order and, oh
well.
So I matriculated down to the short
chute leading to the 90R entry to
Thunder Valley. A lot of action took
place here, as cars approached
blindly at full throttle then had to
brake suddenly to avoid causing a
schmozzle, as David Hobbs might
say.
Except schmozzle they did. And
often. Nothing serious, mind you,
but most of the “offs” required
some type of assist, reducing the
action to full course yellow, which
bunched up the cars and created the
possibility of yet ANOTHER caution a
few laps after green. ZAM! ZAM!
ZAM! WRECK!
Caution. Snorge. Repeat.
As you might expect, the Penske
boys (AJ Almendinger and Ohio’s
own Sam Schmidt) gradually
wormed their way to the front. AJ
(2012 Rolex 24 winner) grabbed the
first ever NNS checker at Mid-Ohio
for what proved to be a very popular
win.
There was only one real “buzz kill”
and that was that the paddock area
was completely closed to
spectators. Even on Friday. Even
the autograph session was
restricted. I don’t see how you can
bill yourself as “fan friendly” and at
the same time keep the paying
public at arm’s length in this way.
Winner AJ Almendinger/#22 Discount Tire Ford Mustang
Lastly, the weather was Chamber of
Commerce perfect, like we haven't
had for a number of years in the
Mid-West. Would I go again? Will I
go again? "Wait and see."

I attended the last SOLO event recently

for this Rev Record and the Facebook

seemed to catch their attention). After
about 5-10 minutes of questions and
answers it turned out they were new

RallyCross Report

Twenty competitors came out to
Roos Farm on August 10th for Points
Event #3 and one question was on
everyone's mind: How muddy will it
be? The same question weighed
heavily on my mind since Points
Event #1 had to be canceled due to
excessive rain making the access
drive to the site impassable. Luckily,
the amount of precipitation leading
up to this event was just right. No
one had any trouble getting up the
hill and the racing surface offered a
wide range of grip throughout the
day.
The first run group consisted of
Modified All Wheel Drive (MA),
Modified Front Wheel Drive (MF),
and Prepared All Wheel Drive (PA).
These drivers faced the slimiest
surface as they broke in the course
and cleared the racing line of its
vegetation. Bob Poling built a solid
lead in the muddy morning heat
over Adam Brock in PA and
maintained it in the afternoon heat
to finish first in class. In the three
Neon class of MF, Bill Ehrman
established a 10 second lead over
Tim Spellman in the morning heat
and expanded it the afternoon.
Adam and Michael Wolf battled for
the top spot in MA in their shared
Subaru Impreza, while ZB Lorenc and
Greg Ohlemacher raced to see who
could accrue the most cone penalties
in their Subaru WRX. In the end,
Adam Wolf took first in class and Greg
won the 'cone killer' award, amassing
over 200 seconds of penalties.
The second run group of Modified
Rear Wheel Drive (MR) and Stock All
Wheel Drive (SA) got to start off with
more grip and a cleaner line than the
first group and their run times
reflected the advantageous
conditions. Pete Remner jumped out
to an early lead in MR with Chris
Hastings over 10 seconds back after
the first heat but less than one second
ahead of Evan Arthur. Evan turned
the tables in the afternoon session,
posting the fastest single run of the
event and not hitting any cones. It
was not enough to catch Pete though,
and after 10 timed runs, Evan finished
3.7 seconds behind Pete. Ed Trudeau
showed that even the lowliest of the
Subaru Impreza line can make a
formidable rallycross machine in SA.
He took the class lead in the first heat
over Miles Voegeli.
Miles was able to makeup some
time in the afternoon on the more
open course and higher grip surface,
but could not overcome Trudeau in
his 2.2 liter, automatic transmission
equipped Impreza. Trudeau had the
lowest penalty count (a single cone)
and the lowest cumulative score of
all entrants.
Points Event #4 is quickly
approaching on September 7. This
event is hosted by OVR and will
feature the 'Duel in the Dirt' in the
afternoon session. Registration is
open now. Also soon to be upon us
is the RallyCross National
Championship in Tulsa, Oklahoma
the first weekend of October.
Several WOR rallycrossers will be
making the trip again so wish them
luck.
See you in the dirt!

For the second year in a row, WOR
SCCA has had an exhibit at the
Wright Patt Top 3 Association car
show benefitting the Wounded
Warrior foundation. This year we
sponsored the People’s Choice
trophy, and even though the DJ
misspelled our name during the
announcement (we’re now the
SCAA), the gentleman that won the
trophy still had a smile on his face.
Thank you to the members that
answered my call for cars to include,
and thank you as well to the
members that showed up to help
and keep us company. The weather
was a bit warm and there weren’t
many brochures given away, but a
few spectators did stop to talk to us
and possibly come check out a SOLO
event.

Well people, as we bring this edition
of the Rev Record to a close I have
just a few notes for you.
First of all, as most of you hopefully
know, our last Street Survival was a
great success and the students had a
blast. It was our intention to put on
another Street Survival in October.
Unfortunately logistical delays and a
schedule conflict with the Oct. 6th
Regionals at Mid-Ohio made it
impractical. Rather than rush and
give students a poor experience,
we’ve decided to hold off on a
WORSCCA Street Survival for this
year and start planning for next
year’s event.
While the August 25th joint Solo with
Cincy Region was great, it was a bit
hectic. This caused some “issues”
with the results which required a bit
of time to straighten out. Now that
the audit is complete those times
will be made available on the
WORSCCA website at
http://www.worscca.org/racing/sch
edule.php?type=1
In the meantime, the PDF edition of
the Rev Record will include the full
list of times for all 65 racers. You
can find it at
http://www.worscca.org/rev_record/
Thanks for your patience and keep
on racing.

What is the SCCA?
The Sports Car Club of America is the world’s largest automotive motorsports organization and has set the target for
motorsports competition and motorsports event management in North America for over 60 years. The SCCA has remained
the benchmark and is recognized as the gold standard in the industry.
The SCCA hosts a myriad of motorsports activities to satisfy any interest you may have as a sports car competition enthusiast.
Interested in Professional road racing? Then SCCA Pro Racing®, Inc. which organizes and sanctions SCCA’s World
Challenge and MX-5 M iata Cup has your ticket.
Do you have a burning fever to experience the intense competition and camaraderie of Club Racing®? Then
regional programs and intense national programs designed for qualifying for the National Championship Runoffs® are your
medicine.
Not interested in the challenges of wheel-to-wheel competition but still harbor a competitive streak for precision and accuracy at speed? Then SCCA’s Solo® Events program offers over 2000 local competitions annually up to and
including a National championship with supporting Divisional championship programs.
How about those of you with a need to play in the dirt? SCCA’s RallyCross® program offers competitions similar to
Solo events on loose surfaces. RallyCross also has a very competitive National championship structure.
The SCCA RoadRally® program is what got SCCA started over 60 years ago. This is the easiest form of competition
to enter as it only requires a registered and insured street car of any kind. Normal highway speeds and precise course following are the challenges in this most basic form of motorsport.
If you find that competing is not your style, but being close to the competition, the drivers, the cars and the crews
and being part of the American motorsport scene is your form of adrenaline, then the SCCA has written the book on motorsport official’s training, licensing and event management. Anyone can volunteer as an official at SCCA events – the wealth
of motorsport experience possessed by SCCA members will be imparted to you simply by your enthusiasm and desire to
learn.
YOU CAN GET IN ON SCCA ACTION LOCALLY AND RIGHT NOW!
There are over 110 local regions of the SCCA – from Guam to Hawaii and up to Alaska…down to Florida and up to Maine –
which means there is a pocket of SCCA activity near you. You'll be involved in events close to home or you can make a
weekend of it with other motorsports enthusiasts like you. SCCA is like no other motorsports organization. Why? Because

Information for Area 4 Members – Sept., 2013
Dear Area 4 Members,
We have some important news today. Please get this out to our members as soon as possible.
Roundtable – Scheduling Meeting
There will be no Great Lakes Division Roundtable this year. Instead, there will be a Scheduling Meeting, Saturday
November 9, 2013 starting at 10:00 AM at my office in Dayton, Ohio:
Rixan Associates, Inc.
7560 Paragon Rd.
Dayton, Ohio 45459
Directions and motel information can be found here: http://www.rixan.com/ContactUs/FindRixan/tabid/92/Default.aspx
Each Region is invited to send three representatives to this meeting, but the only scope of the meeting is to complete the
2014 Road Racing Schedule. With the advent of the “Majors”, the schedule is more structured. We do not expect the
meeting to last past 2:00 PM. There is no registration fee, yet a complimentary lunch will be served. Cincy Region is
handling the Registration for this meeting through MSR. Go here and scroll down to November 9:
http://www.motorsportreg.com/index.cfm/event/calendar
The traditional Roundtable meeting will move to March. All SCCA Groups (Club Racing, Solo, PDX, Club Trial and etc.)
along with all Club Racing Specialties will be giving the opportunity to hold meetings/training at Spring Training on March
15, 2014 in Findlay, Ohio. This will save GLD Inc. a lot of money as the Scheduling Meeting will cost almost nothing. It
also positions our organizational meetings closer to the start of racing season.
NCM Motorsports Park
While the news coming from Bluegrass Motorsports Park last month was disappointing (but not hopeless), another venue
has emerged as a possible place for SCCA racers. The National Corvette Museum Motorsports Park in Bowling Green,
KY has invited the SCCA to tour the facility and start the certification process for future racing. I will be there Saturday,
September 28 to do first level track review. Having just gone through this process successfully last year for MIS, we are
hopeful for a rapid, yet thorough, review and approval. We’ll keep you informed.
2013 Runoffs
If you are going to the Runoffs, be sure to say “hello”. I will be sharing Pace Car duties and will be attending the various
CRB Town Hall sessions. Speaking of which, some of these sessions may be fairly interesting as we continue to deal with
class consolidation. The SCCA is member driven; let us know your thoughts – participate!
2014 National Convention
I am repeating this headline because it is important. If you missed the notice, the National Convention moves to Charlotte,
NC next year. We are joining forces with National Trade Productions to establish the North American Motorsports Expo as
part of our National Convention, March 7 – 9, 2014. Now, you racers have a good reason to attend the National
Convention. More info here: http://www.scca.com/news/index.cfm?cid=51448
As always, let me know if there is anything you need.
Yours for a better SCCA,
Steve
