Autoracing Betting Lines

07/02/2009 - Charlotte, NC (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - NASCAR on Thursday revealed the 25 nominees for the inaugural NASCAR Hall of Fame induction class. Nominees included pioneers, former champions and driver-turned-team owners of the sport.

A 21-member committee - consisting of NASCAR officials and industry leaders, as well as owners/operators of current and historic racetracks - determined the nominees.

The five inductees for the hall's first class will be selected by a voting panel made up of NASCAR members, manufacturer representatives, former competitors, the media and fans. The voting will be completed by September 15, with the results announced in October.

Eligibility requirements included NASCAR accomplishments and contributions. Former drivers must have competed 10 years in NASCAR and be retired from the sport for a minimum of three years in order to be eligible. Non drivers qualify after working at least 10 years in the industry. NASCAR will grant consideration for potential candidates with shorter careers if there are special circumstances.

The inductees will be honored next May when the hall is scheduled to open in Charlotte, NC.
