Wild Card Award for outstanding/exciting performances: Hunter at the Memorial Day weekend race at Haubstadt. Came from the C to third in the A. Gotta mention DC's run at the Hulman Classic. His hellacious run in the B to nip Weir at the line for the last transfer then what looked like a possible win from 17th only to nearly spinout twice and finish 4th.

Builder/Manufacturer of the Year: DRC

Hey guys, Chad Boat isn't a rookie!! He's been running sprint cars for a few years now. He was a rookie with USAC, but this is for sprint cars in general.
If you would like to add in a different rookie pick, feel free...

I think I would have picked Nic Faas for sprint car rookie of the year.

Wild Card Award for outstanding/exciting performances: Dave Darland at the 4 or was it 3-Crown was almost Hewitt like (Hey, I said almost.). In a photo finish with Hunter.

Builder/Manufacturer of the Year: I wouldn't have a valid idea.

Media Member of the Year: Danny Burton in a landslide.

Team of the Year: HAR

Promoter of the Year: Dave Rudisell. I have no choice if I want to keep my Section "A" perch. "Bozo" or not, he's still the BOSS. :O:

Rookie of the Year: Logan Hupp

Rank the top fifteen (your choice! haha) sprint car drivers of the year.

Jerry Coons, Jr.
Dave Darland
Hunter Scheurenberg
Brady Short
Jeff Bland, Jr.

Brady Bacon
Shane Cottle
Tracy Hines
Cole Whitt
Chris Windom

Jon Stanbrough
Levi Jones
Darren Hagen
Brad Sweet
Brett Burdette

My picks based entirely upon racing I have witnessed, which maybe unfairlry leaves outs Tony Jones, Mike Spencer, Nic Faas, and others. I hope they won't be heartbroken. :wink:checkered:

The only one I can really say is for promoter and that would be DHK because they saved the Action Track. DHK is actually changing names since Chris Novetney came on board.

Wild Card Award for outstanding/exciting performances: This is a hard one since we've been to so many shows, however,,,,,,,Brady Bacon for his performance in the TNT races.............was I the only one there of what...Didn't he win 3 or 4 of them?

Builder/Manufacturer of the Year: DRC.

Media Member of the Year: Toss up.... Kevin Eckert-Dean Mills.

Team of the Year: Hoffman.......runner up, Benic

Promoter of the Year: Dave Rudisell.....Reasoning: Considering # of events to promote, professionalism and work load

Rookie of the Year: Logan Hupp:dologob:

I HOPE YOU HAVE SUN BURN:moon:

Builder MFG: JD Performance Engines(Best kept secret in the Nation)
Media: Eckert/KO (they should start their own mag, puts everyone else to shame)
Team: Cole Whitt and Lil' Rim(alone they beat the best) gets GLM points too(good looking Mom)
Promoter: O'Conners (Kokomo has no BS, same rules for everyone, good, fast, safe racing everyweek. Just wish they would let us run MC-2's/SD-44's as well as Hoosier DT-3's!)
Rookie: Too many to keep track of. I thought the economy was bad? CHAD BOAT gets my vote, Cool kid, cool Dad, doing it alone. They get hauler points and GLM points, (GLM= good looking Mom!) Might ned to learn more throttle control but he's a smart kid, he'll get it.
Top 15: DD, JRS, Coondog, Whitt, Hunter, Cottle, Billy P, Sweet, Short, Bland, Bacon, Windom, Tony Jones, Hagen, Swindell, Hockett

BUMP--this si good stuff, keep it going

I'll add one category. Most exciting single race performance. I saw a lot of them, but my vote goes to Ricky Stenhouse, Jr. in the 4 Crown Midget feature. That was just crazy, there.:applaud:

Jerry

I'll agree with that but there were a few races by Hunter at Kokomo that came awful close to Ricky at eldora
