National Dirt Late Model Hall of Fame

[1] During 2001 while conversing with a group of people involved in the sport, longtime motorsports journalist Bill Holder decided to create the National Dirt Late Model Hall of Fame.

The first induction ceremony took place later in August at Florence Speedway during their annual NORTH-SOUTH 100.

The voting board consists of voters from all aspects of the Dirt Late Model scene.

The Contributor category includes individuals from all aspects of the sport including promoters, series directors, car builders, engine builders, crew chiefs, car owners, media types, etc.

This inductee, who is also voted on by the Voting Board is an individual who supports the Dirt Late Model sport by working closely with promoters, track owners, sanctioning body heads, helps young and inexperienced drivers, and maybe most importantly, interfaces with the fans.
