2.  Class Eligibility:

All SCCA Runoff Eligible Class and SCCA Regional Class cars, recognized by SowDiv SCCA, are
eligible for the SWRRC Series.

3.  Points:

Points will be awarded on the following basis for each race: 1st‐25, 2nd‐21, 3rd‐18, 4th‐17, 5th‐16, 6th‐15, 7th‐14, 8th‐13, 9th‐12, 10th‐11, 11th‐10, 12th‐9, 13th‐8, 14th‐7, 15th‐6, 16th‐5, 17th‐4, 18th‐3, 19th‐2, 20th and below‐1. Must complete at least half (1/2) of the full race distance to qualify for SWRRC points.

Points will be awarded based on a driver’s actual finishing position in class in all designated points races except at SowDiv Super Tour races where the SWRRC points will be awarded based on the driver’s finishing position against other SowDiv drivers only.

All Southwest Division and Southern Conference Regionals, Majors and Super Tour races that are run under SCCA Sanctions in the Southwest Division will be eligible for SWRRC points at the election of the Region or the Division/Conference. Only those races declared as SWRRC races will count for SWRRC points.

The SWRRC points report will be maintained at the Division level and the SWRRC is the only racing championship sponsored by the SCCA Southwest Division.

4. SWRRC Season:

Each SWRRC race season will start with the first SWRRC race scheduled after the season ending SWRRC Race.

Year‐end total points for championship: Drivers count their eight (8) best points races of the regular championship series season. A maximum total of eight (8) races will be counted for each class championship by each driver.

In the event of a tie for any position within the divisional championship, the tie breaker will be the driver with the most class wins during the championship season. If a second tie breaker is needed, this will be the driver with the most 2nd place finishes in the championship season.

5. Championship Awards:

SowDiv will provide year‐end awards to the eligible drivers finishing 1st, 2nd and 3rd in the year‐end points for each class.
