Hedge Hollow race/TT in May cancelled

Memo from Bill Johnson:
It is very disappointing but KVRG has decided to cancel the event at Hedge Hollow scheduled for May 11/12.
A lot of issues but in the end we could not  get an amicable contract with the track in the short time before the event.  At this time the event is not being rescheduled but we are keeping our options open in hopes something can be worked out in the future that satisfies all parties.
The race track itself is fabulous and offers a lot of options for events for our members.  Dealings with the track have all been positive, we are just out of time to get all of the details with the track and the multiple groups involved worked out.
Appreciate everyone’s enthusiasm for what we were trying to do, it would have been a very special event.  Hopefully down the road we can make it happen.  Also appreciate the tracks willingness to work with us and continue to pursue options for the future.
Hope to see you all soon
Bill Johnson

Olivia Hammac wins SCCA Women on Track road racing scholarship

(from scca.com)

The SCCA Women on Track Road Racing Drivers’ School Scholarship presents two recipients with $1,000 scholarships each to attend an SCCA competition Drivers’ School. This year’s recipients are Reagan Thomas and Olivia Hammac.

At just 16-years old, St Louis Region member Olivia Hammac has seemingly done it all. “I got my first kart for Christmas when I was 7½-years old,” she said. “I started autocrossing with the SCCA Hawaii Region. My parents sent me to every driving school offered by Hawaii Region. I was even voted by the membership as [Hawaii Region] Driver of the Year in 2016. We then moved to Florida in 2017 and I became a member of the [Central Florida Region]. My dad started me in wheel-to-wheel racing in Florida as well.”

Hammac is also a two-time SCCA Solo Nationals winner, taking the last Junior B kart class in 2019  — the only female ever to win a Junior Kart class  before the Junior Driver program was shut down, and the Super Street Ladies championship last year in a Lotus Evora.
