Default abbreviation help

This spring/summer will be my first time doing any autoX. iv went down the drag strip in my almost stock gsr a handful of times but its the essentially the same everytime. well i was looking up the SCCA schedule for my area (WNY) and next to three of the events it said (FLR OOR). i searched here and google. google kept asking "did i mean floor?" lol. so what does this mean?

Links would help. From the info given, I would say its the location of the events. But that's just a shot in the dark.

Finger Lakes Region = FLR
RIT - Rochester Institute of Technology (Rochester, NY)
SEAD - Seneca Army Depot (Romulus, NY)
BMP - Batavia Motorsports Park (Batavia, NY) =OOR
ECC-N - Erie Community College North



This was too easy.. it's right on their site.
Kind of looks like they are names of airports though..

But why would eccn have FLR OOR next to them then. Eccn is no where near the flr. Unless it means ppl from that region will attend?

Also u posted batavia=OOR. Which what does oor stand for. Not argueing just trying to know what they mean.

Thanks

Lol sounds good. Thanks btw.

Is it normal to have only 3 different tracks? Do they do different layouts each time they race at the same local?
