Fresno SCCA’s Season Finale

November 9 and 10 marked the season nale for the Fresno SCCA, as the central valley crew stormed the Fairgrounds asphalt one last time in 2019 for an autocross doubleheader. Saturday’s autocross and Sunday’s enduro-format autocross challenged drivers to edge the competition one last time to stake top season honors and layclaim to a trophy. And as the checkered flag finally waved on what may have been the club’s most competitive autocross season to date, those in attendance witnessed the closest ever finish in Fresno SCCA’srecorded history.

A cold spell across the valley broke just in time as racers showed up 65 strong to contest Saturday’s Autocross Event 12, chaired by Keith Bullock. Drivers were greeted by a challenging, fast course that progressively tightened, catching many off guard. Cone carnage quickly became the theme of the day, and the overwhelming majority picked up a one second penalty at some point.
