PLEASE NOTE, MOST POPULAR DRIVER NOMINATIONS CLOSED ON OCTOBER 15th AT NOON. BEST LOOKING CAR NOMINATIONS REMAIN OPEN UNTIL OCTOBER 30TH
The most prestigious fan voted award on the Atlantic Canadian stock car racing scene is back for another season!
The Tim’s Corner Motorsports Most Popular Driver Award is completely fan driven – fans will nominate their favorite drivers for the award and through three rounds of voting, fans will decide who ultimately takes away the crown!
Nominations are now being accepted and will remain open until Monday, October 15th at NOON Atlantic, when all the drivers nominated will be placed into a voting pool with Round One voting. Voting round dates and times will be announced once the nomination deadline passes.
How do you nominate your favorite driver for the 2018 Tim’s Corner Motorsports Most Popular Driver Award? It’s easy!
Fill out the form at the bottom of this page and tell us why your favorite should win the Tim’s Corner Motorsports Most Popular Driver Award! Note, once your driver is nominated and appears in the listing below, there is no need to re-nominate that driver during the nomination period. We would ask that you keep it to one nomination per person/IP address.
Keep in mind as well, the nomination does not have to be performance driven (we have our TCM Power Performer Championship presented by Quinn Flooring for that) but can be for a driver who may be a fan favorite, or is a helpful hand in the pit area, a true sportsman to other competitors on track, etc. This is your award fans – fan nominated, fan voted – we want to know who your favorite is!
***Note: Any car or driver nominated for any TCM Award must have attempted at least three races on Atlantic Canadian soil through the racing season.
