SBR Autocross #5&6 – GLDiv. & Hoosier Challenge at Grissom Aeroplex
Get ready to put your driving skills to the ultimate test as the SCCA South Bend Region brings two thrilling days of solo autocross action to Grissom Aeroplex in Peru, Indiana! On August 15 and 16, 2026, SBR Autocross Events #5 and #6 combine the exciting Great Lakes Division competition with the prestigious Hoosier Challenge, creating a weekend double-header that no motorsports enthusiast will want to miss. Whether you’re a seasoned autocross veteran chasing championship points or a newcomer eager to discover what this precision driving discipline is all about, this event promises an unforgettable experience on one of the region’s most beloved competition surfaces.
Autocross, also known as Solo competition, is a time trial format where drivers navigate a course defined by traffic cones, racing against the clock rather than door-to-door against other competitors. The challenge lies in finding the perfect balance of speed and precision — shave too wide on a slalom and you’ll collect a cone penalty, brake too late into a tight offset gate and you’ll lose precious tenths of a second. With the Great Lakes Division classification in play alongside the Hoosier Challenge, competitors will be pushing hard to post their best times across multiple runs, making every single moment on course count.
Grissom Aeroplex provides a fantastic venue for this type of event, offering the wide, open pavement that autocross competitors love for laying out challenging and creative course designs. Located in Peru, Indiana, the site is easily accessible for drivers traveling from across the region, and the spacious environment means plenty of room for paddock setup, vehicle preparation, and spectating. The dual-event format across Saturday and Sunday gives participants two separate opportunities to compete, refine their technique, and climb the results sheets.
Sanctioned by the Sports Car Club of America through the South Bend Region, this event upholds the high standards of organization and safety that SCCA Solo events are known for. Whether you’re arriving with a built competition car or a stock daily driver, autocross welcomes drivers of all experience levels and vehicle classes. Mark your calendar for August 15–16, 2026, head to Grissom Aeroplex, and find out just how fast you can really go!
