PIERCE AND OWENS MOST POPULAR
IN THIRD ANNUAL 2002 MDTF FANS POLL
Bob Pierce of Oakwood, Illinois and Jimmy Owens of Newport, Tennessee prevailed as the  number 1 drivers chosen by the fans in the Midwest. The voting was conducted by the Midwest Dirt Track Facts website from January to October in 2002.

A veteran of many Late Model seasons, Pierce started early in the fans voting, passing last years two-time winner(2000-2001), Billy Moyer of Arkansas, in the second tabulation tally. Pierce placed second in the fan voting in 2001. Muscatine, Iowa's Brian Birkhofer gained steadily thru the season and eventually placed second in the voting. Rounding out the Top Five in the Late Model class were Shannon Babb of Illinois in third, Moyer in fourth, and Don O'Neal of Indiana in fifth.

Owens, the "Newport Nightmare", captured his third straight win as the fans Modified favorite with a comfortable edge over Denny Schwartz of Illinois. Mike Marlar of Tennessee finished in third with Jeff Leka of Illinois in fourth and Jim Shereck of Missouri in fifth.

These ten drivers will all receive a gift from Ringers Gloves. We congratulate the winners and thank Ringers Gloves for their generosity.

More than 8,500 votes were cast this year and we invite all of the fans to check in on the website in January of 2003

FINAL 2002 FANS TOP 25

(OCTOBER 15/02) The final tabulation of fan ballots has been counted and Bob Pierce and Jimmy Owens were declared the winners by the fans in 2002. One word of caution to fans-If you voted for certain drivers CONSISTENTLY, our computer kicked out repetitive votes to allow a more fair assessment of all of the fans selections. The computer has counted 5,209 votes since January 1st and kicked out 3,522 votes. The voting shows a pretty good cross-section of the Midwest.
