For 15 straight editions of the SKUSA SuperNationals, there’s never been a two-time winner. It’s true, there have been 15 different winners in the X30 Junior / TaG Junior category. Dating back to the category’s debut year in 2008, there has been a unique driver at the top of the podium each SuperSunday. It is a historic list of former winners in the category, including three Formula One drivers – George Russell (2011), Lance Stroll (2012) and Logan Sargeant (2014) – along with two on the cusp of reaching the pinnacle of motorsports – Jak Crawford (2017) and James Wharton (2019).
Turner Brown (Rolison Performance Group) joined that list in 2023, claiming victory on SuperSunday. The two-time SuperNationals winner returns, having finished third in the SKUSA Pro Tour championship with two wins while also competing at the FIA Academy Trophy program overseas, where he placed fifth in the European championship. This year, the California driver has a chance to make history. First, becoming the only driver to win a second time in X30 Junior. Second, can win both Junior categories for a second straight time to become the only driver to do so. Third, if he does win both Junior main events this SuperNationals, he will join the coveted four-win club that includes Connor De Phillippi, Billy Musgrave, Kip Foster, and Danny Formal.
