2022 DirtRacingNews Driver of The Year Competition and information

Since we are only three months or so away from the end of the 2022 season, I think it's time we discuss DRN Driver Of the Year. The DOTY competition will start on October 10th and will run till October 15th and winners will be announced on October 16th via Facebook Live.

Now let's discuss the criteria.

The nomination criteria are all based on how many wins, top 5's, and top 10's. But the amount of wins you have almost guarantees you a nomination.

Wins, top 5's, and top 10's you need are as follows:

Wins: 5 or more.

If you have more than 5 wins (ex: you have 10), you are guaranteed a nomination. The top 5 and 10's will not be counted.

Top 5's: 5 or more

Top 10's: 5 or more

**NOTE: IF YOU HAVE ZERO WINS YOU MUST HAVE ONE OF THE 5 TOP 5'S AND 10'S TO EVEN BE CONSIDERED A NOMINATION!**

Let's talk rules. DOTY isn't about being the best, it's about having fun.

Rules for DOTY:

Rule 1: You must have zero suspensions from any track during the 2022 season.

Rule 2: You must follow all the rules of any track you are at. This includes safety rules.

Rule 3: No illegal moves or cheating during features. If I determine that you have done this, your out and someone else will take your nomination spot.

**Note: This rule only applies if you are nominated for an award.**

Rule 4: Clean driving. THIS IS A RULE THAT MUST BE FOLLOWED! Dirty driving will result in your

getting your nomination taken away. A shorter version of this would be if your black flagged, your out.

Rule 5: This is the most important one... Go out and have fun!

I know some of these rules are kinda strict, but this is to ensure that you'll keep your nomination (if you are nominated) and ensure a safe and fun competition.

There will hopefully be 4 nominations in each division (if it works that way). When I announce the nominees, we will have a poll via Google Form that will determine the nominees who go onto the final round. The two drivers who get the least votes will be removed from the competition. We will have a prize for those drivers for their cooperation in the competition. We won't leave them out. The two drivers who get the most votes will advance to the final round. All the voting will be done via a Google Form. As usual, the winners will get an official DirtRacingNews certificate.

If anyone has any questions or concerns, message me, call me, or come find me at the track and I will try to answer any questions you may have. Let's make this DOTY Competition a good one.
