What are: The Rules
The General Competition Rules and Specifications, known to many as the GCR, is the complete Club Racing rulebook. The GCR covers everything, from flags to logbooks to cage construction to car classification. It is also a requirement for every racer to have access to the GCR during a competition weekend. Currently, you can purchase a physical book on www.sccagear.com, or you can download a free copy by going to www.scca.com/clubracing and clicking on the “Cars and Rules” link.
