User:TNTBot/testing/citeExpand/1964 SCCA National Championship Runoffs

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The 1964 American Road Race of Champions was the first edition of the SCCA National Championship Runoffs. It took place on 14 and 15 November 1964 at the Riverside International Raceway. The ARRC was held as the non-championship final round of the SCCA National Sports Car Championship and the SCCA Divisional Championships. Most competitive drivers from SCCA's six divisions were invited to the event. No championships were contested that year as part of the Runoffs, and therefore, ARRC champions were not SCCA National Champions.

Legacy

[edit]

The event has been a big success. More than 160 drivers have arrived to the ARRC, including future road racing stars such as Chuck Parsons, Jerry Titus, Rick Muther, Bob Sharp, Jerry Hansen, Bob Tullius, Ed Leslie, Jim Downing, Ron Grable, Dave Jordan, Dick Guldstrand and George Alderman. The race has been the first race from the late 1950s that saw amateur West Coast and East Coast racers compete against each other, as the SCCA National Sports Car Championship was East Coast-only and the USRRC, despite allowing amateur drivers to compete, was a pro championship.

The 1964 American Road Race of Champions started a new chapter in the history of American amateur road racing. The National Championship was cancelled for 1965 and the ARRC became the only interdivisional amateur road race. It was still a non-championship event until 1966, when Runoffs winners in each class became National Champions.

Notes

[edit]

Due to limited attention to SCCA amateur races at the time, the results are not fully complete and there are a lot of inaccuracies.

1.^ Some sources say that Downing was the pole-sitter in the FV race, which is not confirmed by the SCCA.

2.^ The SCCA site says Mernone ran for 4 laps in GP, while other sources say she ran only for three laps.

3.^ Some sources say Candler had an Elva Mk VII for the EM/FM race.

4.^ Noah's FP pole is debated by the SCCA website, so Riggs could be the pole-sitter.

5.^ The SCCA website lists Ward running a Lotus Elan, but in the entry list he is listed running a Super Seven.
