Pre-Chase "Heisman" Awards and Others

[Bgartz29]

This is a poll of the SimRacing community to see who gets the Pre-Chase Heisman, with some other awards as well. To vote on a driver/team, pick a 1st place vote, second place vote, and third place vote. A first place vote is worth 3 points with the other 2 being worth 2 and 1 point. Most points in the category wins the award.

The awards will be the following:

"Heisman" - The best overall driver, the one who stands out the most.
Most Outstanding Team (MOT) - Same as above but this time a team as a whole.
Most Improved Driver (MID) - From '07 to '08 season
Favorite to Win Championship - The one to watch
Sleeper to Win Championship - Try picking some who actually makes the chase lol
Most Popular Driver Award (MPD) - Basically your favorite driver, this is to see the most popular driver on the boards.
Most Popular Team Award (MPT) - Same as above for team
Sportsmanship Award - The Driver who shows the most class

Votes will be accepted until the Monday after the California race, in other words when my internet gets installed up at Penn State.
