Solo Scent, cont from page 6 The level of car preparation is up to what you can afford, but is unnecessary to compete in Solo II in the Stock classification. If you are unsure about competing, you can always come and watch a Solo II event. You will just be asked to sign an insurance waiver. Finally, when you show up at your first Solo II event, you will find the other competitors friendly and always willing to help you "come up to speed." If you are a member of the SCCA, you will be eligible to compete for year-end trophies through our Solo II Championship Series. In 1999, 20 drivers received year-end awards and we presented Rookie of the Year and Driver of the Year awards. The awards are presented at a banquet for all racing competitors in the Land O’Lakes region, so you can be recognized by not only other Solo II racers, but also road and rally racers. In 1999, the Land O’Lakes region of the SCCA sponsored 11 Solo II events throughout our region. Events were held in the Twin Cities; LaCrosse, WI; Watertown, SD; Owatonna, MN; Fairmont, MN; and Rochester, MN. In addition, a driving school at the beginning of the year and a karting school at the end of the year were sponsored as a non-points event. Similar event schedules are planned every year and we are investigating additional events in other locations. If you are interested in finding out more information, you can call the Land O’Lakes Region Solo II Chair, Tom Fisk at (507) 281-2678 (e-mail tomfisk@home.com) or check out the Solo II section of our website at www.scca-lol.org. More detailed information about Solo II and autocross can be found on the web. For starters, you can go to www.autocross.com which has links to many sites that contain documents for beginners.		2000 Twin Cities Area Autocross Schedule Phone for confirmation of date and location for all events.
