SEASON
LONG COMPETITION AND PARTICIPATION CARRIES OVER TO BANQUET
Annual Awards Ceremony Set for January 28, 2012
ROSSBURG, OH (January 9) –
Competition and participation are the influential factors
towards determining the cumulative points championships
at Eldora Speedway; and those dynamics will be carried into
the Awards Celebration on January 28, 2012 in the Eldora
Ballroom in exciting fashion.
In addition to the championship
hardware for Eldora’s Late Model, Modified and Stock
Car divisions, Bert Transmission and Aaron’s Rents
have donated items that will personify the annual points
chase.
The Bert aluminum transmission
will be awarded through a reverse-drawing competition, where
all of the Late Model drivers in attendance at the Awards
Celebration will be brought to the stage and have their
names placed into a bucket. One by one the names will be
drawn, with the last driver standing to be awarded the valuable
transmission.
Participation throughout the
season will be recognized via the Aaron’s donation.
Drivers that competed in 100% of the scheduled events for
the three divisions will be introduced and a random drawing
among them will result in the presentation of a 32”
JVC flat screen LCD television to the winning driver.
Brian Ruhlman and Jon Henry
will share the Late Model championship honors as their points
race ended in a tie, while Jerry Bowersock will claim the
Modified title and Rob Trent will headline the Stock Car
division. Track owner Tony Stewart, who recently was honored
for his third NASCAR Sprint Cup title, has on his busy schedule
plans to be in attendance to bestow the honors.
In addition to the championship
awards, hardware and point fund awards will be distributed
to the top fifteen drivers in each division, along with
the top 20 drivers in the Sunoco sponsored American Late
Model Series.
Tickets for the affair, priced
at $23 per person, are available by contacting the Eldora
office at (937) 338-3815.
