Southeast Division SCCA Formula B 1977
SEDiv was unusually busy in Formula B, with lots of new drivers and two brand new cars. Bob Fisher won the title in his new March 77B, but he only narrowly beat Bill Kneeland, who started the season with a Chevron B29 and ended it with a new B39, but when he changed from one to the other is not clear.
Of the others, Max Sebba had a March 75B/76B, which might have been Tim Cooper's old 73B/75B; John Gloviak had transferred from Central Division with his Brabham BT35; and Folis Jones had a March 722. There are two mysteries: Rick Habersin had a Brabham, about which nothing is known; and "F. Hood" who might have been John Hood, perhaps having a guest drive in a car at one of the Nationals for which we do not have results.

Southeast Division sources
What we know of Southeast Division racing in this period comes from Competition Press & Autoweek's reports on SCCA Nationals and the SCCA's own Sports Car magazine. We are keen to learn more and are therefore very keen to acquire or borrow 1960s, 1970s and 1980s copies of SCCA regional publications from this Division. The known ones are:
- The Checker (Central Florida Region)
- CARolina Newsletter (Central Carolina Region)
- The Racket (Tennessee Valley Region)
- Regional Notes (Florida Region)
- Rich Mixture (Southern West Virginia Region)
- Sowega Newsletter (Sowega Region - became Chavaga Region in 1968)
- Sports Racing News (Alabama Region)
- Steering Wheel (Atlanta Region)
North Carolina Region, which moved from NEDiv to SEDiv in the late 1960s, has made its newsletter available online at the NCR website.
We are also keen to get scans of entry lists from SCCA Nationals in this Division.
