Racing Card Hall of Fame Committee
The RCHOF committee will consist of the NasCardRadio hosts and other subject matter experts entrusted by NasCardRadio.
Nominees
Any trading card from any form of motorsports is eligible to be nominated for voting into the Racing Card Hall of Fame. These cards can be from Formula 1, NASCAR, Indy Car, Drag Racing, Airplane Racing, Motorcycle Racing and any other form of motorsports.
The RCHOF committee reserves the right to reject any card nominated that does not fit the motorsports criteria.
Collector Participation and Voting Process
The process of selecting 10 inductee cards out of 40 nominees for induction into the Racing Card Hall of Fame involves a voting procedure that reflects the consensus of the voting body, which consists of the RCHOF committee, trading card experts, collectors and fans. Here’s a breakdown of the process:
1 – Initial Nomination: Input from the racing card collector base will be taken to create a list of eligible cards. This list is based on certain criteria such as historical significance, rarity and popularity. These nominee cards will be complied along with the nominees of the RCHOF committee. The top 40 nominee cards are then compiled and announced to the public.
2 – Voting Body: The Racing Card Hall of Fame voting body will consist of the trading card collector community and the RCHOF committee. These individuals are entrusted with the responsibility of casting one vote of 10 cards per person.
3 – Voting Process: Each member of the voting body is asked to select their preferred 10 cards from the list of 40 nominees. Every vote cast for each card counts as one vote. There are no extra point values for any card as all cards carry equal voting weight. Voting will be open for a period of approximately 4 weeks. The RCHOF committee will publish a link as to where voting will be held.
4 – Tabulation: The votes are collected and tabulated by the RCHOF committee and the 10 cards that receive the highest number of votes in the voting process will be inducted into the Racing Card Hall of Fame. In the event of a tie, the RCHOF committee will vote to break the tie.
5 – Announcement: Once the votes are counted and verified by the RCHOF committee, the inductee cards will be announced on RCHOF prior to the Daytona 500 for that year. These trading card inductees will be celebrated on the racingcardhof.com website.
6 – Yearly Nomination: Going forward, each year, 10 cards from the list of 40 nominees will be inducted into the Racing Card Hall of Fame. Of the remaining 30 cards, the bottom 10 cards that received the fewest votes will be removed from the list of nominees. This will leave 20 cards that will carry over as nominees for the next year. A new list of 20 additional nominees will be added from a list of new nominees compiled from the RCHOF committee along with input from trading card experts, collectors and fans.
