Tyler Ladd scores SCCA Super Sweep, one of only two to do so
Fun fact: Ladd’s BMW Z3 was originally built by Jesse Prather, who won the EP national championship in it at the 2020, 2021 and 2022 Runoffs. Then he sold it to Greg Ira who raced it to the 2023 Runoffs victory. Ira sold it to Ladd, who drove it to this year’s Runoffs win. That’s five consecutive championships in the Prather-built car.
