I love watching them both. That said I dont know if there is any criteria on the process. I believe all of Kyle's win were in the Hoosier state, Three during ISW and he completed the first ever season sweep at Haubstadt this year.

This pretty much sums it up.
Notable in that Cummins, racing MSCS and other select events, including many USAC shows, makes nearly as much money this year as the USAC top guys.

No more deserving team after the tough year they had previously. Both Cummins and T-Mez deserve all the recognition possible and I hope they can both have equally impressive seasons in 2020.

Eat dirt, be happy
Let’s go Brandon!!

I really wish they could raise the purses for non wing racing, the teams deserve more for their investments.

Definitely both Kyle Cummins and Tmez deserve any awards coming to them, both had awesome years winning and both gave the fans super exciting performances. I would definitely have a hard time deciding who had a better season and both would be great choices for driver of the year. I'd vote co drivers of the year.

Not really as close as people are making it out to be. 13 less races attended for Cummins and he made $38,000 more.I also thought he did a real good job of taking care of his equipment while piling up the $.

Jonboat. Take your wallet out and add to the purse making it what you feel it should be. Not being an ass but the other way is increased front/back gate, no more coolers etc. Believe me when I say no track at the end of the day is wheelbarrowing cash to the bank. There are so many week to week expenses that go into just opening the gate. One home run gets knocked down by the sacrifice fly.

I compared head to head competition between the two and Cummins dominated those races many more times than not. Two great seasons but Kyle gets the nod.
