MidWest Division SCCA Formula B 1966
MidWest saw a boom in Formula C in 1966 and also saw some signs of life in FB, with Hank Candler enjoying great success in his LeGrand.
The only car to go to the Run-Offs was Chuck Trowbridge's LeGrand. Both Candler and Trowbridge would later try their hand at Formula A.

Midwest Division sources
Although Competition Press was more concerned with west coast and east coast events, the major midwest events were covered reasonably well. However, we know little of the goings-on away from these events and are are keen to acquire or borrow 1960s, 1970s and 1980s copies of regional SCCA newsletters from this Division. The key ones are:
- Checkpoint (Kansas City Region)
- Exhaust Notes (Nebraska) - full archive available at nrsccahistory.com.
- Gasket Gazette (Oklahoma Region)
- The Offside Undo (Kansas Region)
- Wheelspin (St. Louis Region)
- Witches Wail (Wichita Region)
We are also keen to get scans of entry lists from SCCA Nationals for this division.
