Also sponsored by Paul Meis, the FV championship was named in honor of Grant
Reynolds at the 2006 VIR Driver's Meeting. Grant is a long-time
SCCA member and Steward who was honored in 2006 by being inducted into
the SCCA Hall of Fame for his work with Solo events. He was present at
VIR to present the 2005 trophy to Bob Clarke.
Our FV Competition awards points for participation, finishing, as well as finishing
position, with bonus points for hosting track parties. Bob Clarke took the trophy
in 2006. In 2007 Gordon Drysdale's lead was unassailable even though
he did not contest the Finale, having sold his Lynx to Randall Yow.
Second and Third places remained a close contest as John Gaither and Randall
Yow were within a few points of each other; however, both cars failed to
complete the weekend. Gaither started and finished the Qualifying
Race on Saturday, and that proved to be the margin of victory.
Trophies will be presented in April at VIR.
*In 2007 VDCA Race Director Mike Jackson and Statistician Paul Meis have once again ruled
themselves ineligible
for trophy competition.
