Re: Most Improved Driver
 

Lets not forget the young Logan Hupp.

2011
25 races
7 top 5's
14 top 10's
0 wins
average 10th

2012
23 races
8 top 5's
15 top 10's
2 wins
average 8th
oh yeah his name will go down in the books as 2012 Lawrenceburg Track Champ He might be like Josh Burton and didn't run as many big money races but from the regular shows I've watched him at there always been stiff competion. From the stats I believe he's improved the most and has become a flat out driver. I've spoke with him a couple times and he seems to be a real good kid.

Congrats to all the young drivers and their accomplishments this year! :22:

How does Beauchamp measure up in comparison to last year?

Re: Most Improved Driver
 

There are several drivers who took a big step forward this year. It's just about impossible to pick one and say he or she is the most improved. I could make an argument for any of the following: Justin Grant, Wes McIntyre, Logan Jarrett, Chase Stockon, Josh Cunningham, Kevin Thomas Jr., AJ Hopkins, Coleman Gulick or Logan Hupp just to name a few. I'm sure there are more I could add if I sat down and thought about it.

Re: Most Improved Driver
 

This sport gets tougher and tougher every year... there's really no such things as a field filler or a guy that is just there for fun... We might only get 20-30 cars but 10-15 can win on any given night! Indiana Sprintcar racing my be the most competitive form of motor sports in the world. Its great to see guys like Chase winning with the Best!

John... I posted the entire table because I knew somone would ask about someone else. Thanks for showing me that I was correct. :3:

Brent Beauchamp may not be the #1 guy people will mention but he needs to at least get some recognition along with these other guys. Very impressive whenever he has been out at Btown. Not afraid to run the top at Kokomo, and obviously his accomplishments at Putucky.

Re: Most Improved Driver
 

I'd vote for either Chase Stockon or Kevin Thomas Jr.....
