DJ Casey of Prospect Road, Nova Scotia received the Exide Batteries Rookie of the Year Award. Casey and Joel Hickox (Cornwall, PE) battled all season long for the freshman title, with Casey getting the edge after finishing 12th in the overall point standings. Casey’s season was highlighted by a second place run in the prestigious IWK 250 presented by Steve Lewis Auto Body in July at Riverside International Speedway.

One of the most prestigious awards on the Parts for Trucks Pro Stock Tour, the Cathy Ledwidge Memorial Most Sportsmanlike Driver Award, went to Donald Chisholm as voted by the drivers of the series.

Numerous contingency awards were presented as a part of the evening’s festivities. Chisholm and Dylan Blenkhorn (Truro, NS) each set the pace three times in Atlantic Tiltload Time Trials action throughout the season and both received the annual Atlantic Tiltload Time Trials Award. Greg Proude (Springvale, PE) was the recipient of the EIT Race Radios Consistency Award as the highest finishing driver in the series standings without a feature win in 2015. Darren MacKinnon (Charlottetown, PE) gained the most positions in the year end point standings from 2014 to 2015 to pocket the Urquhart MacDonald Most Improved Driver Award.
