The SCCA Foundation is embarking on an initiative to guarantee that future generations will be able to enjoy the thrill of amateur motorsports. That’s why Bob Crawford, Chairman of SCCA’s Board of Directors, announced the appointment of Clay Turner as the new SCCA Foundation Executive Director. He and Foundation Chairman Jeff Jacobs are now charged with driving the non-profit’s mission of making opportunities in amateur motorsports accessible to all, now and for generations to come.
Turner, a 25-year member of SCCA and current member of SCCA’s BoD, brings extensive leadership experience and business acumen to this pivotal role, as well as a deep passion for motorsports. A seasoned competitor, he was elected to SCCA’s 13-member BoD in 2021 as the Area 8 representative after previously holding several leadership positions at SCCA’s Regional level.
“SCCA Foundation can play a larger role in preserving, protecting and expanding amateur motorsports,” Turner said. “We envision a vibrant future – one where the thrill of competition, the spirit of community, and the legacy of excellence are passed on to the next generation of drivers, volunteers and leaders. As a Club, SCCA is uniquely positioned to pass along a legacy of excellence built by racing legends, ensuring the thrill of competition and spirit of community continues to inspire future generations to experience the rush of auto racing competition.”
