This trophy was first awarded to Santa Pod Raceway’s late Chief Marshal, Alex Brachtvogel, in 2001 to mark his outstanding contribution
to Santa Pod Raceway and the sport as a whole. After Alex’s death the trophy was named in his memory and continues to be awarded for contribution to drag racing.

There is no shortlist for the Alex Brachtvogel award. Nominations are invited for racers, race officials, track and safety crews, club officials, media, or anyone else who has contributed to the sport. Last year the trophy was awarded to the VWDRC for their support to the late Laurence Clark.
