The SlideRule Cup is a season points championship (March 1st through October 31st) open to all drivers in all classes of Solo II (Autocross) competition. NERDS Racing is not associated with any particular racing organization, so SlideRule Cup drivers will receive points for competing in any sanctioned Solo II/Autocross event with any club or region. Points are awarded according to how the driver finishes according to the rules of that particular club.
For instance, an M2 class driver in the Porsche Club of America can compete directly with an H-Stock SCCA driver on an equal footing. One of the goals of the SlideRule Cup is to encourage drivers to try other clubs and regions in the area, so competitors will be rewarded for racing with multiple organizations.
