Would You Drive Yours? USCA Hits Charlotte [Gallery]
There’s nothing we like to see more here on Driving Line than people out driving their vehicles. From just-fun to serious competitors, the Ultimate Street Car Association (USCA) puts on national events giving automotive enthusiasts and builders the opportunity to prove their mettle. Hopping over to Austin and the Circuit of the Americas this weekend from last weekend’s stop in North Carolina at Charlotte Motor Speedway, USCA is holding 11 events during 2016 including their big shindig, the Optima Ultimate Street Car Invitational (OUSCI) following SEMA Show in Las Vegas in November.
Browse through the 2016 USCA Charlotte event gallery above and comment below to let us know what car you want to see more of here on Driving Line… it could be our next feature!
Each of the four competing classes is judged on five elements: road rally, design & engineering, autocross, speed stop, and hot laps. Congratulations to these class winners from Charlotte Motor Speedway!
