2026 PHA HOF Nominations

Now Accepting Nominations for the 2026 PHA Hall of Fame

Behind every great race are the people who set up the course, run the events, wave the flags, drive the cars, and keep the spirit alive. Now is your chance to honor the legends who have made a lasting impact on the Pennsylvania Hillclimb Association.

Who Can Nominate?

Absolutely anyone! You don’t need to be a driver, a corner worker, or even an official PHA member to submit a name. If you know someone who deserves this honor, we want to hear from you.

What are the Selection Criteria?

We seek individuals who have made outstanding contributions, made a significant impact, and/or shown dedication to the PHA.  They should also have demonstrated unwavering sportsmanship. 

Nominees can be drivers, workers, officials, or any combination of these roles.  

Keep the following in mind:

  • Not Just for Longevity: This is not a service award. While long-term involvement is helpful, it is not required.
  • Open to All Roles: Nominees do not have to be drivers. Selection is based on racing achievements, dedication as a worker or official, or a combination of these roles.
  • Core Values: Successful candidates will embody true sportsmanship and a commitment to the PHA.
