Career[]
Formula Ford[]
BRSCC National Formula Ford Championship[]
In 2020, Aron moved to the UK to compete with Low Dempsey Racing in the BRSCC National Formula Ford Championship. Due to the pandemic, the championship was shortened to just 3 rounds and 7 races and Aron finished 5th in the standings, having won pole position in the penultimate round at Brands Hatch. In order to supplement the shortened race calendar, Low Dempsey Racing participated in a variety of additional series including the Champion of Brands, Champion of Cadwell and the majority of the Castle Combe Championship. Aron won the Champion of Cadwell.[2]
2020 Team USA Scholarship Winner[]
Aron was one of three winners of the highly coveted 2020 Team USA Scholarship. At the Formula Ford Festival Aron finished 3rd in the semi-final. Aron “ran strongly in third place until being elbowed down to fifth following a late-race Safety Car interruption.”[3] Aron then went on to the Walter Hayes Trophy, where out of 103 drivers he finished on the podium in 3rd place,[4] having been the 7th American to finish on the Walter Hayes Podium. Aron made history as the first American to finish with a top 5 and a podium in the two end of year iconic events.[5]
GB3 Championship[]
Aron joined Carlin for 2021,[6] progressing to the GB3 Championship alongside teammates O’Sullivan and Mansell. Aron had what was hailed as a stunning debut at Brands Hatch where he made bold moves to end the race weekend with a 4th place finish.[7]
