The
SCCA Washington D.C. Region was the first region to join the SCCA, back
in 1948. They hosted the earliest races at Andrews Air Force base,
the old Marlboro circuit in suburban Maryland, and presently Summit
Point. The D.C. Region is 2,000+ members strong, making
it one of the
largest regions in the country. Drawing from the District of Columbia
and Maryland, plus large portions of Virginia and West Virginia, the
membership is diverse in interests and background. The Region currently
sanctions the Mid-Atlantic Road Racing Series (MARRS), one of the most
popular regional amateur racing series in the country . MARRS is a
series of SCCA sanctioned races held in the Mid-Atlantic area provided
as MARRS events by the Washington DC Region. The Washington DC Regions
conducts a points competition, by class, to determine and recognize
drivers’ overall success in the series. Championship and runner-up
awards are presented to participants in each qualifying class. The MARRS
points championship is conducted under the direction of the Competition
Committee of the Washington DC Region of SCCA. The MARRS Championship
and
runner-up awards will be presented at the Washington DC Region
Annual Awards Ceremony. It should also be noted that points performance
may be used in the determination of other awards that the Region may
award such as Rookie of the Year, Driver of the Year, etc.
Starting in 2008, MARRS will be introduced to the GTA class of
competition. The GTA competitors have the opportunity to race at all
regional SCCA events. They will be setting the standard for GTA lap
times and recording track records. MARRS, for the first time in history,
will be crowning a 2008 GTA MARRS Champion. GTA competitors will also be
seeking their SCCA Regional Points Championships in their home regions.
