The New England Region is one of 116 regions that represent, host and sanction motorsports events throughout the Northeastern states under the authority of the Sports Car Club of America, Inc. It encompasses members and tracks located throughout Maine, Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Vermont, Rhode Island and Connecticut.
The New England Region SCCA, Inc. has been in existence since 1952 as a result of combining the Boston region with other New England Regions that were the founders of the SCCA back in 1944. Through the years its members have enjoyed an active program of motorsport competition including rally, solo, club racing, and rally-cross.
Other activities include the Annual Meeting, presentation of awards, and recognition of member’s achievements. Digital and print media, under the banner Pit Talk, publishes events, results and other communication with the members.
Many current members think NER has always been here – it was here long before we became active and surely it will roll along forever providing us with the activities which ‘hooked’ us in the first place. Active members come and go, but the Club continues – a comforting thought.
Pit Talk
Pit Talk is the official publication of the New England Region, SCCA. Established in 1946, Pit Talk has a long history of being a benchmark publication within the national SCCA family and among racing fans around the country. Over the course of its 74-year history, Pit Talk Magazine has been guided by many dedicated Editors and been a staple found of coffee tables and desks of region members. In 2018, Pit Talk transitioned to a new digital media publication for its 2,000 members and sportscar and racing enthusiasts across the northeast.
