All,
I have a race at Road America that same weekend, entries, hotels, airfares
etc. already done. I will be racing my 63.5 Galaxie - pics attached. It
is a beast to drive, but great fun.
I hope to make he SSCC next year. In the meantime, I have been following
the emails trails with great interest.
Regards,
Steven G. Lisa, Esq.

Hi Steve,
Heck, it's just 5 hrs from Scottsdale to SSCC tech at Sam's Town
Hotel in Vegas...
Then only 4 hrs up to "race town" Ely.
There is an "organized" caravan going up from Vegas to Ely Friday,
just after tech and the Press Luncheon. Some racers enjoy doing this
caravan.
Tech inspections take place on Thursday September 14th on 8:00 am in
Vegas and is open until about 11:30 am.
If you have to go to "Rookie School" (for first timers) I believe
this can be done same morning at 6:00 am in Vegas, or now even
probably the days before the event.
I know they (SSCC) recently changed the location (raceway) and times
for this.
You need to verify this eventually.
If you have a racing license I believe you might get a waiver for
the otherwise mandatory Rookie School. You need to ask the
organizers.

If you are not doing tech in Vegas, it can be done in Ely Friday
morning or Saturday morning.
But, the 1/2 mile and 1 mile shootout in Ely is Friday morning at 10
am.
So you definitely want to tech as early as possible, if also doing
the shootout.
The most important items in the rule book in my opinion is:
Condition of tires, all tire date codes, tire speed rating, helmet
type and Snell SA date, race harnesses and date codes. You also need
an approved fire extinguisher.
Can send you the rule book if desired.
And no oil or fluid leaks from car. Ask me, I should now...d-
Hopefully we'll meet at the upcoming SSCC event.
We plan on doing tech in Vegas Thursday, coming in from LA same
morning.
It absolutely takes away a lot of stress when you know you're passed
inspections and are ready to roll already on Thursday morning.
And yes, you can bring almost any type of car. Not open wheel type
though.
PS! It's the 30th Anniversary for the SSCC this year. Not to be
missed.
Hope you find the above info a bit useful.
