What If?”
By
Jennifer Ocker

My original article plan was to talk about hill climbs. I know a lot of you don’t compete in them because of the risk involved, but truly, of all the racing I’ve done, they are my personal favorite.  It is my plan to attend all of the NHA events in 2012 and my goal is to take top female time at each. Last Friday Robert Steck forwarded me something that IS VERY INTRIGUING, and may change my mind about how I want to spend 2012.

During the 2011 race season the team got to try its hand at a ProSolo at Packwood.  Most of you know the story of how the girl broke the pitch mount; the car was trailered to Portland, fixed, only to be broken again by the girl the next day. The boys never really got to race, but for me the experience was phenomenal.  Line up on one of two “identical” courses, drag start against a competitor, short autocross  course, line up on the other side, do it again.  FAST, FAST, FAST!  I was paired up with a woman in a Cobra and Steck’s STI ATE IT UP. Domination baby!

So let’s get back to this email. Evolution Performance Driving School is  putting together a two-day event which will be a hybrid between SCCA’s National Tour and Pro Solo formats, and takes a portion of each entry and places it into a prize fund to be distributed to the top 10% of the Sunday Super Shootout winners. This format is a great opportunity to build the sport, by providing a stepping stone to SCCA National Level Solo.

The Evolution Super Shootout features a four run event where all class winners and 32 of the 64 Super Shootout qualifiers are determined. These top 32 qualifiers are determined from the events overall PAX results, and are then locked into their positions for the Sunday Super Shootout. Once these folks are locked in, the rest of the competitors get a second chance at the Super Shootout with the Last Chance Qualifier. The LCQ allows these remaining competitors two runs to try and position themselves into the top 48 positions in the PAX. Following the LCQ the top four ladies class competitors are brought into the Super Shootout bringing the total number to 52. The remaining 12 Super Shootout positions will be from a random drawing of any competitors that didn’t make the top 52 spots, bringing the total to 64.

With the Super Shootout field complete, the 64 competitors are broken down into a four bracket system, with the top 4 qualifiers taking the number one seed in each bracket. The first round of each bracket will allow one warm up run before the money rounds start. The Super Shootout will also run on a PAX system where each pairing will run heads up with the winner advancing to the next round, and the winners of each bracket running for the top spot worth over $2,500 in cash and prizes. SIGN ME UP!

While the tentative schedule includes venues in NC, GA, and DE, surely Evolution will announce some west coast dates so those of us that race in the gorgeous Northwest Region have a shot at some real money and a whole lot of fun.  Let’s do this people!
