Mineral Wells Marque Club Challenge May 20-21
The SCCA ProSolo Department has created a new program at the Mineral
Wells ProSolo aimed at marque club members who have never
participated in ProSolo events before. Entrants will be given a free SCCA
Trial Membership and a special class will be created so that marque club
members can compete amongst themselves for bragging rights and cash
prizes!
b" For the Mineral Wells event the new Marque Club Challenge class is
open only to competitors new to ProSolo (defined as drivers who have not
run a ProSolo event in the last 5 years).
b" The class is open to any make or model of car that can pass a basic
safety inspection.
b" They will be placed together in an index class based on how their car
would be classed in SCCA Solo classes. If we get enough entries we can
divide the classes by Marque so the BMW's can run against each other, the
Subies can run against each other, etc.
b" Each entrant will be given a free SCCA Trial Membership (valid for 15
days). Within 30 days of the event entrants may apply this Trial
Membership toward a $15 discount on a full SCCA membership.
b" Entrants will pay the standard $85 ProSolo entry fee.
b" After class competition is completed, the top drivers scored by index
will be automatically entered into the Marque Club Challenge, a single-
elimination runoff to determine an overall winner. If there are 4 or fewer
entrants, it will be a 2-car runoff. If there are 5 or more entrants it will
be
a 4-car runoff.
b" The overall winner will receive a free 1-year SCCA membership, a free
ProSolo entry at a future event, and a $75 cash prize from Vorshlag
Motorsports. The Runner-Up will receive a free ProSolo entry to a future
event and $25 cash prize from Vorshlag Motorsports.
How to enter:
b" Pre-entry is required. Entrants must download the ProSolo entry form
