The West Coast Stock Car Hall of Fame (WCSCHoF) has announced the 10 finalists for its Class of 2018 induction, a list that includes five first-time nominees.
The five first-time nominees to emerge from the board’s first of two rounds of voting are George Follmer, Joe Garone, J.D. Gibbs, Greg Pursley and Bryan R. Sperber.
Previous nominees advancing for a final vote are Tom Gloy, Rick Henderson, Oren Prosser, Marshall Sargent and Richard (Dick) Woodland.
Final round voting by the Hall’s board of directors takes place Jan. 11–31 to select the five 2018 inductees, whose identities will be announced March 11 prior to running of the Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series event at ISM Raceway in Phoenix.
The Class of 2018 will be enshrined June 21, 2018, at the Meritage Resort and Spa in Napa, Calif. The event, presented by Gateway Motorsports Park, again accompanies the annual Monster Energy NASCAR Cup Series and NASCAR K&N Pro Series West weekend at nearby Sonoma Raceway.
“Without a doubt, these individuals comprise one of the most outstanding a diversified group of men whose success helped define the sport on the West Coast during the past 75 years,” said Ken Clapp, chairman of the West Coast Stock Car Hall of Fame. “Electing any one of them will expand greatly the stature of the West Coast Stock Car Hall of Fame.”
