Barre, VT — The popular Brookside Equipment Sales Triple Crown will once again highlight the Milton CAT American-Canadian Tour schedule of events in 2026. Three popular events at three popular and unique racetracks will make for another run to the finale but make no mistake, it’ll be difficult to top the thrills of last year’s season highlights.

Starting as a Southern New England Triple Crown back in 2022, Brookside Equipment Sales of Phillipston, Massachusetts stepped in for the 2023 season with Falconi Energy and has been presenting the Triple Crown ever since! Center Conway, New Hampshire’s D.J. Shaw took down the first two championships before Erick Sands stepped in with a powerful Haunted Hundred win in 2024 to claim the Crown for the first time.

In 2025, it was a three-dog race with former champ Shaw looking for his third ringer with Raphael Lessard and Derek Gluchacki chomping at the bit. It was Gluchacki’s win at Seekonk in the 50th Spring Green that cemented his stake in the standings while the Bar Harbor Bank & Trust Fall Foliage 200 at White Mountain Motorsports Park brought the three challengers down to the wire! Lessard crossed the line in second, followed by Shaw and Gluchacki with the two New Englanders coming up tied in the standings and Gluchacki’s Seekonk win breaking the tie for the Triple Crown championship!

If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it! The Brookside Equipment Sales Triple Crown will once again get its start at Star Speedway on May 9th with the Coastal Clash 150 before resuming at Seekonk Speedway on Saturday, June 6th with the 51st Spring Green 126. It will all come down to the 48th running of the Bar Harbor Bank & Trust Fall Foliage 200 at White Mountain Motorsports Park on Saturday, September 19th. A $4,350 Brookside Equipment point fund is up for grabs among the top four runners with Falconi Energy providing a $500 check to the fifth-place finalist at season’s end and $200 to the 5th-place finisher in each of the three Brookside Triple Crown events.
