It just said......on Saturday. That is all . Did the media and promotors come up with the names? Or was they already on the ballot and they just voted on them?

Mr. Wimmer, My apologies. I was in no way disrespecting your award and certainly appreciate what you do for the racing community.

Aha, now I understand your question. I think (and I'm sure I'll be corrected if I'm wrong) that all eligible drivers go onto the ballot. Eligible drivers being those who have never raced in any of the divisions Mr. Wimer counts points for toward the Cavalcade championships.

Relax...... there scruffy, don't get your panties all bunched up .

There were bunched for a sec, weren't they. Not really, I just jumped the gun to jag ya lol
