WRCA man of the season award

Ok, here's an idea. Its kind of a "man of the match" award trophy that is handed to a person at the end of a season.

This person doesn't have to be the fastest person, or the person who has attended the most rounds, but simply for things like track etiquette, racing improvement, general helpfulness or possibly just volunteering to marshall.

I propose that a person is firstly nominated by someone, then after nominations we have a simple vote either here on oOple, or other means.

The person who is then in award should receive a trophy or shield which gets handed back every year similar to the L8 trophy at COBRA.

Please comment on this idea and i will propose it at the AGM or maybe prior as the award could be presented there.

Anybody have a thumbs up or thumbs down on this idea then?

Comments are welcome in both positive and negative guys.

Sounds like a great idea Jamie! :)

Yes a very good idea..The Axe and Reg should get something for the entertainment alone:woot:

Owen should get it for most improved young driver, or simon hurds for the "I haven't lost my thumbs in all the years off" award

Or perhaps Lewis Webb for most improved young driver in nitro...its a tough one to decide

simple really. ken graham.

attendes every round, and he always volenteer marshals, last sunday i think he marshalled every race, nitro and electric. and he's about 80 years old running around ever where. :p and on top of that he got to put up with tom.

that guy well deserves man of the series trophy

Maybe Ken can have an OAP of the season award.LOL

Keep those names coming. Ill put them all together in a couple of weeks for a vote.

Jamie......

Are you paying for the trophy then./?:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:

Just sent you a P.M Mr Mills.

Top driver would have to be Owen, he has come on so much this season. He'll be kicking all our arses if he sticks at it a few more years.

Could make it a ballot, even an e-ballot put up a poll on oOple as well as votes at EGM or EOS meeting. I recon it's got millage Jamie.

Any news on this Jamie?:)

I asked H about it several weeks ago and haven't heard anything since. Instead ive proposed it for the WRCA AGM in November so i guess it will go to a vote or discussion.

If it doesn't come about through the WRCA, then im sure i can find a sponsor myself and get it organised for the end of the Indoor season. Either way it WILL happen Dave.

i think itl be a good thing:thumbsup: any news on the f gradings?

I believe the Licence gradings have been sent off to the BRCA

Steve ive got shells here for you to do but o cant decide on a scheme

bring em over and we can have a chat about them ;)

dose it have to be a driver? Im asking as there are a few people who are not drivers that i belive should get the award

H for one for all the hard work

Personally i think it should be a driver. We all know that the WRCA committee do a grand job but this trophy would be aimed more at driver who has been there throughout the summer, supported other racers in the form of lending parts, giving up their time to help fix as well as marshaling good conduct e.t.c.

But, its up to everyone else what they think it takes to be the winner.

The other option Millzy would simply be to put H's name forward when it comes about and see what happens. In theory i cant see why we couldn't nominate any WRCA member including committee members.

Axeman - services to marshalling :D
