SCCA National Sports Car Championship
Encyclopedia
The SCCA National Sports Car Championship was a sports car racing
series organized by the Sports Car Club of America
from 1951 until 1964. It was the first post-World War II
sports car series organized in the United States
. An amateur championship, it was eventually replaced by the professional United States Road Racing Championship
and the amateur American Road Race of Champions
.
Following the 1962 season, the professional USAC Road Racing Championship
collapsed, leaving many competitors looking for a series. The SCCA created the United States Road Racing Championship
as a professional series for 1963, moving focus away from the amateur National Championship. For 1965, the SCCA dropped the national championship series and awarded national championships to champions from each region. Top drivers from the regions were invited to the American Road Race of Champions
(today known as the National Championship Runoffs) at the end of the season. For 1966, national championships were awarded only to winners at the ARRC, a system which continues today.
