TOURING & WEEKLY SERIES AWARDS EVENTS ANNOUNCED
NASCAR Hall of
Fame To Host Gathering Of Champions For Fifth Year |
The
NASCAR Hall of Fame is the ultimate goal for the
sport’s greatest.
Annually, the North Carolina landmark is also the
aim of drivers throughout the NASCAR weekly &
touring series, as the NASCAR Hall of Fame /
Charlotte Convention Center will again host the
NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Awards and the
NASCAR Night of Champions Touring Awards.
The NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Awards will be
Friday, Dec. 12, while the NASCAR Night of Champions
Touring Series Awards will be Saturday, Dec. 13.
“These awards shows celebrate and honor our
champions in NASCAR’s weekly racing program and our
touring series – two foundational areas of the
sport,” said George Silbermann, NASCAR vice
president of regional and touring series. “These two
events highlight the hard work, dedication and
achievements throughout NASCAR, and I’m excited that
fans from around the world can share in the
experience through our digital platforms.”
Both the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Awards
and the NASCAR Night of Champions Touring Awards
will be streamed live in English and Spanish on
NASCARHomeTracks.com via FansChoice.TV. Saturday’s
events will also include a broadcast in French.
It is the fifth consecutive year that the two days
of awards will be hosted at the NASCAR Hall of Fame
complex, which opened in May of 2010.
The NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Awards honor
the 2014 Division I national champion, as well as
track champions from 58 tracks across the United
States and Canada, state and provincial champions
and top rookies. In addition, the national champions
from NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Division II
through V will be honored, as well as the UNOH Youth
Achievement Award national champion.
On the following evening, NASCAR’s touring series
champions will be recognized at the traditional
NASCAR Night of Champions Touring Awards. Honorees
will include the champions from the NASCAR K&N Pro
Series East and West, NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour,
NASCAR Whelen Southern Modified Tour, NASCAR
Canadian Tire Series presented by Mobil 1, NASCAR
Mexico Toyota Series and the NASCAR Whelen Euro
Series.
On Friday and Saturday morning, respectively, NASCAR
will hold the Grand Champions event at the Westin
Charlotte – the host hotel for both awards shows.
The Grand Champions event recognizes the top points
finishers in each series, contingency award winners,
and special awards recipients.
NASCAR previously announced the date for the NASCAR
Sprint Cup Series Awards (Friday, Dec. 5 at Wynn Las
Vegas) and the NASCAR Nationwide-NASCAR Camping
World Truck Series Awards (Monday, Nov. 17, at Trump
National Doral Miami). |
