"It's great to partner with FloRacing, our streaming partner, to get a broader look at our Most Popular Driver voting, as well as from our fans that come to the race track throughout the year," said Chris Williams, the owner of the SMART Modified Tour. "We have a diverse group of talented drivers with a lot of history in the sport that our fans are passionate about. It'll be great to see how the voting compares this year to previous years and where everybody stacks up."

"We are super excited to host the Most Popular Driver Award voting on FloRacing," said Matthew Dillner, Senior Racing Producer at FloSports. "Modifieds are super unique race cars and the range of personalities on the SMART Modified Tour make this an interesting tour to follow. You have race-winning teenagers, something very rare in this form of racing, and you have grizzled veterans. Throw in guys with success from NASCAR, and you have a true melting-pot of racers."

For the last three seasons in a row, NASCAR Hall of Famer and NASCAR Cup Series champion, Bobby Labonte, has won the Most Popular Driver Award. But with Labonte scaling back his efforts to a part-time schedule in 2024, Labonte is no longer eligible. That means that a new driver will emerge to take the hardware this year.

 In all, 21 drivers are eligible for the MJ Graphics Most Popular Driver award in 2024. 

The list of drivers eligible includes: 2024 champion Luke Baldwin, Carson Loftin, Ryan Newman, Danny Bohn, Burt Myers, Joey Coulter IV, Tom Buzze, Anthony Bello, Jonathan Cash, Jason Myers, Jimmy Blewett, Jimmy Wallace, Brian Loftin, Daniel Yates, Jake Crum, Brandon Ward, Jason Tutterow, Johnny Kievman, Gary Young Jr., Blake Barney, and Cody Norman.
