MECHANICSVILLE, MARYLAND (November
16th, 2023) - The Rick's Jewelers
Ring for the Queen is one of the
most unique and innovative programs
held for ET Racers at MIR. Each time
an ET Series racer is perfect on
either end of the track, .000
reaction time or dead on the dial
with a zero, he/she will earn a
Diamond Point. For the last decade,
Rick Norris and his team at Rick's
Jewelers have not cut back on the
full one-carat ladies diamond
solitaire ring.
This year, the fight for the Ring
came down to the year's final race
and ended in a three-way tie. Mike
Nelson Jr (Top ET) and Austin Keys
(J/D) would lead all drivers with
four Diamond Points going into the
final weekend, and Rickey Nelson
(Top ET) would add himself to the
final list after earning two diamond
points in the last race weekend.
After going to the tiebreaker
system, Hubble Motorsports Junior
Dragster racer Austin Keys will be
your 2023 Rick’s Jewelers Ring for
the Queen winner! Keys is only the
second Junior Dragster racer to win
the Ring for the Queen program; the
other was Nick Chiles in 2007.
