TOPEKA, Kan. (Sept. 26, 2007) The first Champions of 2007 have now been crowned at the 35th Tire Rack 簧 敁珗腦瞳51xxtv Solo National Championships.For many competitors, 2007 was finally their year, as 16 Soloists earned their first National Championship at Heartland Park Topeka.Perhaps the sweetest victory, was Ian Stewarts Super Stock Championship. After finishing runner-up for the past two years, Stewart out-drove 68 other competitors, in the largest class of the event, to a 0.784-second victory in his Porsche 911 GT3. The SS Title is the first for Stewart in seven Solo National starts.Evan Brauch also brought home his first ever National Championship. Campaigning an Omni-Fab SR-1 in the B Modified Class, Brauch leaped from fourth in yesterdays heats to a 0.141-second win on day two.Although it was technically his second National Championship, it might have felt like the first for Jim Garry in C Modified, who grabbed his first Title since 1984, which is one year before the car he drove was even built, a 1985 Citation FF1600.No surprises in Street Modified, where Mark Daddio took his ninth National Championship in a Mitsubishi Evo 8 RS. It was a similar story in Street Modified 2, where Erik Strelnieks captured his fifth National Championship in a Mazda 3-Rotor RX7 Turbo, trouncing the competition by 2.635 seconds. Wife Beth McLure-Strelnieks took the Street Modified 2 Ladies trophy in the same car, earning her second National Championship.Beverlee Larson was successful in capturing her third-straight D Street Prepared Ladies Title in her BMW 325is, overcoming a 0.309-second deficit from day one.No strangers to Championships, Kiersten S Schamberg-Koch and John Timothy Thomas earned their thirteenth and fourteenth National Championships, respectively.The Thursday/Friday groups will get the second round of the 35th Tire Rack Solo National Championships underway at 8:00 a.m. (CDT) Thursday morning.
