NASCAR has announced two of the 25 initial candidates for the NASCAR Hall of Fame.
Bobby Allison and Darrell Waltrip, who are tied at third all-time 84 Cup victories apiece, are among the 25 nominees, NASCAR announced Tuesday. The sanctioning body will announce all 25 nominees Thursday night.
A panel of 48 voters will select the five members of the inaugural class, which will be inducted in May 2010. One of the 48 votes will come from a collective fan vote done on NASCAR’s official Web site, NASCAR.com.
