Inside the SCCA: Road Atlanta Super Tour preview and keeping GT1 alive
On episode 215 of Inside the SCCA presented by RaceSchool.com, David Pintaric and I preview this weekend’s Super Tour at Road Atlanta. We also talk about low car counts for GT-1. GT-1 used to be one of the two premiere classes in the SCCA. What happened? Why aren’t more cars coming to the track despite the large number of cars out there that could be racing competitively today? What can be done to change that? Is Trans-Am siphoning drivers away?
