(TOLEDO, Ohio) – Competition remains intense for the CGS Imaging Hard Charger Award in the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards, as six drivers stand within 15 points of Buster Graham’s lead with three races remaining.

Graham, who has driven a limited schedule this season for Team BCR Racing, leads the Hard Charger pursuit with 52 total points, most of which were earned in superspeedway action at Daytona (11) and Talladega (23) early this season.

Points for the CGS Imaging Hard Charger Award are awarded race-by-race, with drivers accumulating totals based on positions advanced from the start within a race. Cars must feature a CGS Imaging decal for drivers to be eligible for the award, and drivers using starting provisionals are not eligible.

The driver who advances the most positions during each race receives the CGS Imaging Hard Charger Award for that event, and the driver with the most points at the end of the season receives the CGS Imaging Hard Charger of the Year award. The CGS Imaging Hard Charger Award provides a $200 product certificate per race, and the year-end CGS Imaging Hard Charger of the Year receives a full race car wrap, which is valued at $2500.

CGS Imaging of Maumee, Ohio is the Official Wide Format Digital Printing Supplier of ARCA and the ARCA Racing Series presented by Menards.

Just behind Graham is series points leader Chris Buescher, who has 48 points and has earned the race award twice, at Chicagoland Speedway in July and in his win at Madison International Speedway just three weeks ago.

Salem race award winner Josh Williams is third with 47 points, ahead of Darrell Basham (46) and Brandon Davis (40). Basham has won three race awards this year, at Winchester Speedway, Iowa Speedway, and Berlin Raceway. Davis won the award with a top-five finish at Michigan International Speedway.

Daytona race award winner Will Kimmel is sixth at 38 points, one ahead of Spencer Gallagher.

Other race award winners this season include (in chronological order): Clint King (Mobile), Donnie Neuenberger (Talladega), Grant Enfinger (Toledo), James Hylton (Elko), Ed Pompa (Pocono – June), Milka Duno (New Jersey), Tom Hessert (Lucas Oil at Indianapolis), Kyle Martel (Pocono – August), and Mike Affarano (Illinois State Fairgrounds).
