Fan Voting Open For
NASCAR Most Popular Driver
Beginning today, fans can visit
www.nascar.com and
cast votes for the 2009 Most Popular Driver of the Year Award for the NASCAR
Nationwide Series, NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.
In addition,
www.nascarhometracks.com will host the balloting for each of
NASCAR’s regional touring series – the NASCAR Camping World Series East and
West, NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour, NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour,
NASCAR Mexico Series and NASCAR Canadian Tire Series.
Last year – the first season NASCAR fans were asked to choose the
most popular drivers in these series – more than 250,000 combined votes were
cast among the eight series.
This year, fans also may “write in” their favorite driver if he/she
is not among the nominees for a specific series. Fans should go to
fanfeedback@nascar.com and
submit their write-in vote.
Fans may vote or submit a write-in candidate once per day and are
encouraged to vote throughout the season. Balloting ends Sept. 25 for the
NASCAR Camping World Series East; Sept. 26 for both the NASCAR Camping World
Series West and the NASCAR Canadian Tire Series; Oct. 10 for the NASCAR
Whelen Southern Modified Tour; Oct. 18 for the NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour;
Nov. 22 for the NASCAR Mexico Series and Oct. 31 for both the NASCAR
Nationwide Series and NASCAR Camping World Truck Series.
Last year’s winners were: Brad Keselowski (NASCAR Nationwide
Series); Johnny Benson (NASCAR Camping World Truck Series); Ricky Carmichael
(NASCAR Camping World Series East); Moses Smith (NASCAR Camping World Series
West); Ted Christopher (NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour); Bobby Hutchens Jr.
(NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour); Carlos Contreras (NASCAR Mexico
Series) and DJ Kennington (NASCAR Canadian Tire Series).
Results will be announced at each of the respective series’
season-end banquets.
