TOPEKA, Kan. (Feb. 12, 2008) Pace American, Inc., the Official Trailer of the Sports Car Club of America, Inc., has announced that it will again award one lucky SCCA competitor with a new Pace trailer, valued at more than $14,000.Re-named the Pace Lap Challenge, Pace American will reward precision driving throughout the 2008 Tire Rack® SCCA Solo National Tour and National Championships as well as the 2008 SCCA National Championship Runoffs®. Running consistent times during an event will earn 51 competitors entry into the Pace Lap Challenge. Following the final round of qualifying at the 2008 Runoffs, one of these names will be drawn at random to win a 2009 Pace Pursuit® trailer.Last years program was so well received by the SCCA members, there was no doubt we had to do it again this year, Pace American Marketing Manager Peter Calhoun said. Drivers up and down the time sheets have supported Pace for over 20 years and in return were supporting SCCA drivers, regardless of where they finish.At each Tire Rack SCCA Solo National Tour event and at The Tire Rack SCCA Solo National Championships, the driver with the least time variance from their fastest run to slowest run on either course will be named the Pace Lap Challenge event winner, taking home a Pace American eligibility certificate and earning a spot in the grand prize drawing. Similarly, at the Runoffs, the driver with the least variance between their fastest three qualifying laps of the week from each class will earn an eligibility certificate for a spot in the grand prize drawing.In 2007, Solo competitor Bartek Borowski was the grand prize winner, earning his spot in the drawing by posting the most consistent West Course times on day three of the Tire Rack Solo National Championships.Were thrilled that Pace has chosen to continue this creative program, SCCA VP of Marketing and Communications Eric Prill said. It awards consistency rather than outright speed, its available to both Solo and Club competitors, and a new Pace trailer is something that should be attractive to any SCCA competitor.To be eligible for the award, drivers will need to sign up for the Pace Lap Challenge program and carry the required decals. Each driver will need to run their times within 120 percent of the leader or polesitters fastest time. A driver may only qualify once for the award. Forms are available in the contingency section of either the Club or Solo pages.Should the winner require a different layout trailer (gooseneck, multi-car, etc) or desire additional options, they may apply the value of the prize toward their purchase.
