BRASELTON, Ga. - Five prominent people within the American Le Mans Series have been nominated for the 2003 "From the Fans" award, and it is now up to fans of the series to determine who will receive the coveted award.

Among former recipients are Dr. Wolfgang Ullrich of Audi Sport, Gary Claudio of General Motors and Dr. Don Panoz, Founder of the American Le Mans Series.
