Welcome to the Official Website for the STL Region Solo Program

Solo (AKA Autocross) is a test of driving skill and the car's agility in which one car at a time is driven over a clearly defined course, the elapsed time and penalties for course deviations being the determining factor for awards.  Most Solo events take place in large parking lots, with the course defined by orange pylons. Speeds are limited to 60 mph and the hazards to spectators and participants do not exceed those encountered in normal, legal highway driving.

 

What is the SAC?

The Solo Advisory Committee (SAC) is tasked with running a series of Solo events for the enjoyment of members of the St. Louis Region, SCCA and any other automotive enthusiasts. 

The committee has outlined its procedure for joining.  Generally, all who have interest in helping run the program are welcome.  Details on nominations are here.

The SAC holds a monthly meeting.  Anyone is welcome to attend these business meetings if they have some business before the committee.  Contact the SAC Chair for details on the current meeting location, date and time.

If you have any questions, please contact the the Solo Committee at SAC@stlsolo.org

 

The Solo Expense Reimbursement form is required to receive reimbursement for any approved expenses.  When sending in the form please make sure to ADDRESS IT EXACTLY AS DESCRIBED ON THE FORM.  Not addressing it correctly may result in the post office not delivering the form and returning it to you.
