For those of you guys unfamiliar with Club Racing’s “Annual Tech Day”, I asked Judy for a short description. Here is her response:
All cars used in SCCA Club Racing need to have an annual technical inspection done by a Nationally licensed Tech Inspector (Scrutineer). Often a driver has to take his/her car to an Tech Inspector’s home at a mutually convenient time or have the hassle of trying to get an inspection done at a track prior to one of the first events of the year. If anything needs to be changed for the car to pass inspection (even as simple as roll bar padding), it adds stress and possible inability to accomplish the task prior to getting on track. Having this day/time set up at Joe Aquilante’s shop with 4 or more National Tech Inspectors allows for a convenient way to get the inspection done.
It also becomes a social event with “bench racing” and refreshments. Joe Aquilante owns the area’s premier car preparation shop (Phoenix Racing) – state of the art. Many drivers driving his cars make it to the National Championship Runoffs. -Judy Bloeser, Secretary Tri-Region Race Group
