Win Streak Reaches 52 Consecutive Years and 133 Titles; Pontiac Solstice wins two classes

2007-10-15, TOPEKA, Kan. – Drivers racing Chevy and Pontiac vehicles won five Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) National Championships over the weekend at the 44th Annual Runoffs Presented by AT&T at the 2.5-mile Heartland Park Topeka circuit.

Ken Flory, a Pratt & Miller engineer, drove his Pontiac Solstice Club Sport Z0K to the model’s second straight Runoffs win against a strong field of import vehicles in the Showroom Stock B (SSB) race on Saturday.

“I was hit in the rear at the start, but that was enough to push my Solstice into the lead and we were able to stay there,” said Flory, who was competing in his first Runoffs.

2007-10-08, TOPEKA , Kan. – When the 44th Annual Sports Car Club of America (SCCA) Club Racing National Championship Runoffs Presented by AT&T kick-off today at the 2.5-mile Heartland Park Topeka circuit, GM-powered vehicles will attempt to make it 52 straight years of winning at least one SCCA National Championship.

In 1956, Dr. Richard Thompson drove a 265 cu. in. V8 Chevrolet Corvette to the first SCCA National Championship win for a GM vehicle. Since then, club racers in GM-powered cars have won at least one National Championship every year totaling 128 titles overall, a record no other manufacturer can match.
