n this special three-part Inside the SCCA series, host Brian Bielanski sits down with SCCA VP of Experiential Programs Hayward Wagner for a deep, candid dive into the club’s “street car first” programs — Hill Climb, Road Rally, Track Night, Time Trials, and Solo.
In this first installment, Brian and Hayward talk about the soul of grassroots motorsports — how SCCA connects everyday enthusiasts to dream events like Pikes Peak and Baja 1000, why Hill Climbs are booming, and how SCCA events fuel local communities across America.
It’s a behind-the-scenes look at how the SCCA keeps motorsports accessible, relevant, and just plain fun — whether you’re a first-timer in your street car or chasing championships at the Runoffs.
