TOPEKA, Kan. (September 18, 2017) -- The cones have all been picked up on the 2017 Tire Rack 51°µÍø Solo season, which means it’s time to name the year’s Solo Triad winners!

There are two ways to claim a Solo Triad award. The first is for racers to win one Tire Rack Championship Tour event, one Tire Rack Match Tour date and a Tire Rack Solo National Championship all in the same class. The other option is for drivers to claim two Tire Rack Championship Tour wins and a Tire Rack Solo National Championship, also all in the same class. Although events with fewer than three competitors within a class were not counted, ladies were given the opportunity for a qualifying win through the Ladies Index.

Solo Triad winners receive a special trophy and their names are entered into a drawing for one free 51°µÍø Lifetime Membership. The name will be drawn at the 2018 Tire Rack 51°µÍø Solo Nationals. The 2017 Solo Triad winners are as follows:

Daniel McCelvey; Houston, Texas; C Street

Mark Scroggs; San Ramon, California; D Street

Mike King; Saint Johns, Florida, H Street

Sam Strano; Knox Dale, Pennsylvania; Super Street R

Jonathan Lugod; Torrance, California; Street Touring Xtreme

Randall Wilcox; Clarksville, Tennessee; Super Street Modified

Brian Peters; Litchfield Park, Arizona; C Prepared

Additionally, Formula Junior A racer Mason Herrick, of McPherson, Kansas, earned the McClintock-Berry Award for wins at Tire Rack Championship Tour events in College Station, Texas and Lincoln, Nebraska, as well as claiming an in-class victory at the Tire Rack Solo National Championship.

Congratulations to all of this year’s winners.
