Only about five years overdue, here is the new-and-improved teamscr.com! What started in 1997 as the home of the biggest Saturn road racing team in North America has evolved into your comprehensive resource for improved vehicle dynamics and high-performance brake system engineering. Through our open-enrollment engineering seminars and plain-English technical publications, our years of high-performance race engineering experience can help take you from mid-pack to the front of the field in no time at all.
For those die-hard Saturn race fans who continue to turn to us for technical assistance, we have retained all of the race team content from the old teamscr.com. In our motorsports section you can still find a wealth of information about our cars as they continue to race under new sponsorship (yes, we have kept up with them), our drivers (we tell ourselves that we were real race car drivers before the kids came along), our crew (those selfless, dedicated volunteers who were too easily bribed with promises of Outback Steakhouse), and our vast technical database. Over twenty years of combined SCCA road racing experience is here at your virtual doorstep. We hope that you continue to find the material both entertaining and informative.
Our three-way partnership in 2002 and 2003 with SPS racing, R^3 motorsports, and the original team scR provided a couple of knockout race seasons. So, sit back and surf on. Get Current News on our various exploits (racing and otherwise), read up on Tech Articles written by people who actually race their cars, peruse our tongue-in-cheek Newsletter Archive, browse our extensive Photo Gallery, watch our action-packed Videos, meet the Drivers and Teams, and get official scR Stuff. Any way you look at it, if you are a Saturn motorsports enthusiast, there is something here for you. Thanks for stopping by!  |

I.D.# C0315, Duration: 2 Days Once reserved for high-end luxury vehicles, electronic brake control systems are quickly becoming standard equipment on even the most inexpensive cars and trucks. Today, nearly every new vehicle benefits from the optimized braking, enhanced acceleration, or improved stability that these systems provide. This comprehensive seminar introduces participants to the system-level design considerations, vehicle interface requirements, and inevitable performance compromises that must be addressed when implementing these technologies.

Here we go again...
As most of you have long since forgotten, I (scR motorsports founder James Walker) last competed in door-to-door SCCA Club Racing competition over six years ago. Hopefully nobody remembers that our last race, in October of 2003, at Mid-Ohio, ended two laps prematurely when the alternator decided to work a little overtime and pushed so many electrons into the battery that there was no more room for the acid, thereby spewing it into the fan assembly and thus all over the engine compartment. Not quite the memorable way to end a quasi-successful seven-year motorsports endeavor, but hey, that's racing.
Has it really been six years? Six years and one month? Six years, one month, and twenty-five days? Yes, but who's counting? Now, three kids, two employers, and one relocation to Houston later, scR motorsports is back to re-stake our claim as THE force to be dealt with in North American wheel-to-wheel motorsports. Or something like that, if not “exactly” that.
