CMS 2009 Member of the Year

[Mike Tribble]

The nominations are in, the votes are tallied and the results have been sealed inside a mayonnaise jar on Funk and Wagner's front porch. But before we see who was selected I would like to thank everyone that submitted nominations and to thank the admins for their swift and fair handed votes.

Champion Motorsports is unique among the on-line sim racing community in that we value sportsmanship and fair play above absolute speed or race wins. It is more important to be respected by your peers here at CMS then it is to be this week's champion or hot shoe. Absolute speed has little to do with one's reputation at Champion Motorsports. Yet we ARE a competitive league and those that stand on the podium each week demonstrate their racecraft AND their sportsmanship. That's what makes this award so meaningful. To be even nominated by your peers is an humbling honor. To win is the crowning achievement for this league.

So without further ado your nominees are:

Stephen King
Phillip Brown
Mike Tribble
Daryl Giles
Mark Bradshaw
Phil Elmore
Jim Best
David Anderson
Brian Farmer
Steen Neilsen
John Jogan
Tony Boynton



and the winners are:

(drum roll please)
