Special Event: This charity event is a special 2-day solo event held under SCCA Solo Rules and hosted annually by the Philadelphia Region of the SCCA. This year’s charitable contribution in honor of Al Holbert will go to both the Quest for Tech and
The Holbert Trophy: This event features a special “Holbert Trophy” for the driver whose combined best times from both days produces the lowest indexed time. The 2009 PAX index multiplier is posted at http://scca-chicago.com/solo/indexes/rtp2009.html and will be applied to all drivers. Everyone has a chance to win the “Holbert Trophy.” Last year’s winner, Pat Salerno, will bring the Holbert Trophy back to determine who gets to take the Trophy home for 2009.
Class Trophies and Points: Class finishing position trophies will also be awarded per our standard Philly Region Supplemental Rules, based on the best combined times from both days of competition. Competitors may register for a single day of competition, either Saturday or Sunday, but will be scored as a “DNS” for the day of competition not run during the 2-day event.
