TNT Super Series Introduces New Award
The Performance Improvements DRIVER OF THE YEAR Award Lubricated by Royal Purple – New Trend-setting award will be based on driver’s best average package over the 2013 season…
The popular Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series has created a unique yearend award that will showcase a sportsman drag racer’s performance statistics. The Performance Improvements DRIVER OF THE YEAR Award, lubricated by Royal Purple, will go to the TNTSS competitor with the best overall average package in the 2013 season.
The winner will receive a 2014 product sponsorship from Royal Purple valued at $2500 and along with $250 in Royal Purple merchandise.
“We wanted to create something that would reward the racer who has the best performance over the entire season,” said Ted Barnes, TNTSS Director of Operations. “It had to be something that would really showcase the talent that exists within the Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series. And with partners like Performance Improvements and Royal Purple, we’re going to do just that!”
What makes this award so different in the sportsman drag racing community is how the winner will be determined. “We’ll track every competitor’s elimination round wins that are both green on the tree and on the good side of the index (red lights and breakout runs are excluded). Then we will rank them on a leaderboard.”
Driver statistics will be posted after every event on the TNT Super Series website. To be eligible to win, a driver must compete at a minimum of 10 TNTSS events in 2013.
The Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series 2013 season opener is Friday May 10 at Elegant Builders Raceway Park in Lancaster, New York.
