Sports Car Club of America. At the end of the race (and before the race) winners' vehicles were "tech'd" by "scrutineers". Generally this meant your race car, blueprinted and assembled to excting torgues and aligments, were handed back to you mostly disassembled -- as either having passed or failed "tech".

At the time I raced, most of the vehicles were British by heritage, and we called the tech guys 'scrutinisers'.

I thought maybe you were one of "them". ;-)

BTW, read a book entitled "The Languageof God" by Francis Collins. Dr. Francis Collins is the scientist who led the Human Genome Project. He wrote the book as a way for " a scientist to present evidence for faith." He grew up in the church, became serially a skeptic, an agnostic, and atheist and then a believer, and now a Christian ... all as he continued his study (and understanding) of the natural world.

You might smirk at Noah's experience in Genesis. But see what you think/believe after you read Collins' book.

"what is a SCCA?

"

For me, it will always be the Sports Car Club of America. I use to race a 1959 Sprite in their local races in Santa Barbara. They were held at the airport there....a long, long time ago.

What else it could be, I have no idea.
