Just wanted to say congratulations to Zach Daum for being chosen the 2009 USAC Mopar Midget Rookie of the Year! Way to go brother!:cool:

From the USAC Website

SWANSON, CLARKE, DAUM GARNER NATIONAL ROOKIE HONORS!
“Rookies of the Year” for USAC’s 2009 racing season were selected today and will be honored at seasonal awards banquets in January.

Kody Swanson, Henry Clarke and Zach Daum earned National recognition and will be honored at the January 8th USAC “Night of Champions” National Awards Dinner in downtown Indianapolis, Ind.

Daum, of Pocahontas, Ill. ranked 10th in the Mopar National Midget points on the strength of four “top-10” finishes. He matched that effort in USAC’s K & N Silver Crown Series as well, also finishing 10th in that series standings. He exhibited his versatility near the end of the season with back-to-back eighth-place finishes in the Midgets at the “4-Crown Nationals” on dirt at Rossburg, Ohio and the “Copper World Classic” on the pavement at Phoenix, Ariz.

Here's a great shot of Zach at the Bullring Midget Nationals by Jimmy.

Congrats Zach

We were over there yesterday and nobody said anything about it.

Congrats to the whole Daum family
 
Thanks Everybody! It means so much to win something with USAC with the history and prestige that series has. Hopefully we can improve on some things and do better with them boys. Again, thanks to everybody.
This wouldnt have been possible without our sponsors and everybody that has helped us this year, its awfully expensive to run a national series in 2 classes.

Thanks to: Daum Insurance, Weld Wheels, Penske Shocks, Esslinger Engineering, Gaerte Engines, Simpson Safety Products, Wick Oil, Beast Race Cars, and Racebumpers.com.
Without these great people none of this would have been possible all year. Im so grateful to have great people helping us and cant wait untill next year!

Zach
