Presented annually by the iconic Champion^® Spark Plug brand of Federal-Mogul Motorparts, a division of Federal-Mogul Holdings Corporation FDML, the Shuman award recognizes individuals and organizations that have played vital roles in the continued growth of professional stock car racing.

"The Buddy Shuman Award is one of the sport's most prestigious honors, not only because of Buddy's popularity in NASCAR's formative years, but because past recipients have included many of the most influential figures in racing history. Bill Joyner is truly one of the unsung heroes of Cup racing and well deserving of this honor," said Michael Proud, director of marketing, North America, Federal-Mogul Motorparts.

Buddy Shuman was one of NASCAR racing's first stars - a talented driver, a dedicated proponent of the sport and a figure loved and respected by those who came into contact with him. He died tragically in a hotel fire at the height of his career.
