HONORED
T
he AMA congratulates
Dallas Daniels, winner of
the 2018 Nicky Hayden AMA
Flat Track Horizon Award,
and Kody Kopp, winner of the
2018 AMA Fast Brain Award.
These outstanding AMA
competitors were selected
from among the riders who
participated in the 2018 AMA
Flat Track Grand Champi-
onship at the Illinois State
Fairgrounds in Springfield,
Illinois, earlier this month.
The Nicky Hayden AMA Flat
Track Horizon Award hon-
ors the amateur racer who
is poised for success at the
professional level. The award
was renamed in 2017 in honor of the late
Nicky Hayden, who was the inaugural
winner of the award in 1997.
The AMA Fast Brain Award includes
a $1500 educational scholarship that
benefits one young racer whose talent
with the throttle is matched by his or
her aptitude in the classroom. The AMA
thanked AMA Motorcycle Hall of Famer
Bill Werner, Zanotti Racing's Dave Zanotti
and Bromley Motorsports for funding the
award for 2018.
Both winners will be honored as part of
the AMA's Legends & Champions Week-
end, which is scheduled to take place in
Columbus, Ohio, December 7-9. CN
