After winning national rookie of the year honors, he’ll celebrate at the IMCA awards banquet in Lincoln, Nebraska. “We were able to get four wins and numerous top fives.”. This is the first season he hasn’t raced in 30 years.”. Everybody races side-by-side so it’s hard to get a win here.”. He ran in the top five in six of seven starts preceding that first win May 20 at Waco. “We said we were going to race for rookie of the year and we got it done,” said Cogburn, who wrapped up the title with the checkers in his final start of the year at KSP.
