2015 Female Crewmember of the Year – Tinzy Aronson

Horsepower & Heels is proud to announce the winner of the 2015 Women of the Year Female Crewmember category – IHRA Pro Stock Crew, Tinzy Aronson!

A quick trip to the Pro Stock pits will usually find Tinzy Aronson buried in the transmission tunnel of Cale Aronson’s Pro Stock Mustang, covered in clutch dust. Nicknamed “ClutchGirl” by her friends and fans, Tinzy has risen through the ranks over the years along side now husband, Cale, serving as his main crew support.

This season, Tinzy has had to serve an even bigger role for Cale, after a tragic accident in West Palm Beach in May left Cale seriously injured and confined to a wheel chair. Never leaving his side, Tinzy has been there making difficult decisions in the early stages of his care and helping his recovery and rehabilitation process.
