Last week, we announced the champions of the 2010 Ontario Off Road Racing Association season. The club held their year end banquet last weekend. The 2010 champions recieved their trophies and cash, a little drinking and dancing happened and the “top secret” awards were handed out.



Driver Of The Year: Jeff Zoskey This was pretty much a given. Not only did Jeff once again win the Class 1600 buggy championship, he won every race this year! Not just the main events, but all the qualifying races as well!



Sportsman Of The Year: Neil Martel This is an award that is well deserved. Neil is one of those guys that is always available to help others out, on and off the track. There has been numerous times that he has been seen working on the competitions vehicle to get it repaired for the next round or giving driving hints to the younger, inexperienced racers. The fact that he won the Class 4 Unlimited Truck championship again proves that he is a great driver with some incredible truck building skills.



Rookie Of The Year: Gerry Monahan finally decided to move from being the OORA headflag man and Bridgeport Off Road Racing Team Crew Chief into the drivers seat. Gerry bought a neat little S-10 and was quickly running at the front of the pack. He ended up with 3rd place in the Class 7 Mini Truck class. Pretty damn good for his first year!



Hard Luck Award: Ray Jennings Get this. Ray brings his motorhome, which is followed by his race car on a trailer. He also brings a cube van as a support vehicle for himself and other racers. Heading either to or from each race, Ray had a flat tire on the motorhome, trailer or the cube van. In fact, Ray had a total of flat tires on his support vehicles this year! He is currently looking for a tire sponsor. If a tire manufacture or store would like to help Mr. Jennings and prove that your tire is the best on the market by having him test them for you, please let me know. I can get you touch with him.
