Voting Day for the NASCAR Hall of Fame’s Class of 2027 was Tuesday afternoon in Charlotte, and the Class of 2027 was revealed.

The NASCAR Channel aired the announcement when the three future inductees and the Landmark Award recipient were announced from the NASCAR Hall of Fame’s Great Hall.

The voting panel met at 12:30 p.m. ET on Tuesday at the Charlotte Convention Center to discuss and cast ballots for this year’s nominees. Two inductees were elected from the 10 names on the Modern Era portion of the ballot, and one was chosen from the five Pioneer Ballot nominees. Those three will be inducted next year as the Hall of Fame’s 17th class.

Voters also selected the Landmark Award for Outstanding Contributions to NASCAR from a list of five nominees.

The Hall of Fame announced last month that Ray Elder, Ernie Elliott and Kevin Harvick were among the Class of 2027’s newest nominees, joining the Modern Era Ballot this year. Ray Fox and Herb Nab are this year’s new names on the Pioneer Ballot, and T. Wayne Robertson has filled the most recent vacancy on the Landmark Award’s list.
