All SCCA Rule Books Online in 2005
SCCA Staff Writers
TOPEKA, Kan. (Nov. 16, 2004) – In an effort to better serve its current and potential members, Sports Car Club of America has confirmed that the 2005 rule books for Club Racing, Solo and Rally will appear online through www.scca.com in 2005.

“This is something our members have asked for over the last couple years, and we’re glad to announce that everyone will have easy access to our rules beginning with the 2005 season,” SCCA Vice President of Program Development Howard Duncan said.

Previously available in electronic form only on an accompanying CD, the Club Racing General Competition Rules (GCR) and category specifications as well as the entire National Solo and RoadRally books will appear in Adobe Portable Document Format (.pdf) online. Previously, only the SCCA Performance Rally and SCCA Pro Racing rules have appeared online.

“Publishing the Club Racing, Rally and Solo books online required an adjustment to some of our policies to remain consistent with our departmental revenue structures,” Duncan added. “All licensed Club Racing drivers will now automatically receive a current GCR each year as part of their license package, and at a $5 overall discount from previous years. In Solo, the requirement still exists to have a copy of the current rules in your possession at a National or Divisional event.”

As with the electronic file on the CD in previous years, the online version will not be considered an official document, but rather a reference. The hard copy of all rule books remains the official document.

Electronic versions of all of SCCA’s rulebooks will begin appearing on www.scca.com in mid-December, with all books available in .pdf format by January 1, 2005.

Will make discussions in here much easier when referencing rules instead of having to rely on Moutons or people without rulebooks where we can point them to what is practically official.

Thank you SCCA.

So what's the purpose for this:
In Solo, the requirement still exists to have a copy of the current rules in your possession at a National or Divisional event.
I went to one national event & 'borrowed' a rulebook so I could register. Then at the divisional there was a community rulebook on the ground in front of registration for anyone to pick up & wave to the registration. :lol:

Hey, who's subaru is that on the rule book?

This is good news. I'll still get a printed copy to have at our events, or when I just don't feel like getting on the 'net.

Thanks for the update KC.

I'm thinking it's Kiko's now deceased STU car (can't really see).

The purpose of showing the rule book at a National Event is to show you know, understand and will (hopefully) abide by the rules.

Finally! Having to rely on the rather outdated moutons.org site was getting pretty annoying. Glad to see the SCCA finally stepping up to the plate. :)
