Solo

solo_link.jpgThe New England Region Solo (autocross) points series runs from early April until late October. Each season brings new people, ideas, and sites for our program. Typically, these changes are hammered out during our Winter Meeting in January, and appear here shortly after that. Our last points event is at Devens in Ayer, MA. Here we determine the NER Solo Driver of the Year, as the class champions take part in the Stirling Moss Runoff.

We run a charity event that is part of the Race Against Leukemia weekend. Road Race, Rally, and Solo events are held in the NHIS area during this weekend including the Jeff Gordon Challenge.

If you have never run an autocross, give it a try. It's a great way to learn more about your car's abilities, as well as your own! We have a fantastic Novice program to get you started. In the Novice Class, you compete with other novices, and we score you based on the car you drive, not your ability. It allows a newbie in a Miata the same chance as a driver in a Yugo to take home a trophy.

Racing Against Leukemia weekend – the one weekend where, if you schedule things right, you could participate in all three of our programs’ activities: Club Racing, Solo (two days), DoubleCross, Rally, and RallyCross. I don’t think we had anyone that managed to do this, but, you could (and if you did, please contact me as I’ll change this.)
