Who, What, Where is EMRA????
Founded over 30 Years ago........
The Eastern Motor Racing Association was formed by a committee of local sportscar clubs to provide a sanctioning body to sponsor the then growing interest in club racing. Since the early days, club racing and EMRA have seen tremendous growth and advancements. Taking a few cues (as well as providing some) from the SCCA, EMRA has become one of the premier sanctioning bodies in the Northeast. Our goal is to provide top competition, without sacrificing the enjoyment we take risks to achieve.
We sanction Race and Time Trial Events.........
A race weekend often includes a day of Sedan,GT & Formula Racing and a day of Time Trialing (our version of SCCA Solo I). Our class structure is similar to the SCCA's but for a few exceptions. With EMRA, its not important that you have the hot car, new car, best car; but rather a car you want to drive. A good number of our racers have converted their daily rides into Race and High Performance Street machines . This is not to say we're not competitive. Many of our drivers, are and have been successful with the SCCA, RCCA, and NARRC. With EMRA, its important to remember you're racing and trialing for the FUN of it!!
EMRA runs their events in the Northeast........
and can be found during the season visiting such tracks as Pocono, Lime Rock, Watkins Glen, and Summit Point. Typically EMRA will stay for the weekend when track scheduling will allow.

Affiliated Clubs of
EMRA: The history of EMRA started with the vision of seven independent
car clubs. Though each had their own seasons of autocrosses, rallies and other
agendas; they yearned track time. Event costs prohibited any one of them from
putting on a track event alone, but together they could. Thus the
Eastern Motor Racing Association was formed.
Club contact information and membership applications have been provided
below. Membership to any one of the clubs is optional.
Support the clubs and keep the ideals
of the founding membership a part of the EMRA.
