Congratulations, Tate! You were really on fire at the end of the season. It was pretty impressive to watch, for sure. There were a lot of successes with the old Lowe Chassis, but it was nice to see those continue with the new Beast.

Also, a big congratulations goes to Brett Hankins on his impressive year. He was so close to bringing home the championship for the Hankins Family. It's great to see him have success.

Finally, a big ol' congratulations to Devin Fairchild on winning the 2012 Tony Stewart Racing Rookie of the Year with MTQRL!
