A listing of the special awards and their winners throughout the years

Marvin Schriebman Memorial Award

Awarded to the outstanding contributor to COM for the past year.

Marv Schriebman was active in Corvettes of Massachusetts (as we were known in the old days) not only as a driver but as an organizer, worker, and more. He died on Winter Weekend 1966, drowning in the swimming pool after having a heart attack. His son remained active in COM for several years.

This was the first memorial trophy awarded, paid for by a collection by the members of COM.

The Andy Smith Jr, Mark Swinehart Sportsmanship Award

Awarded to the COM member who has shown the greatest sportsmanship. (Renamed in 2020)

Andy Smith, Sr., was a circle track enthusiast and car builder. His two sons were very active in COM, racing Corvettes in the late 60’s. Andy, Jr. was killed in 1969 in an auto accident. Andy, Sr. donated this memorial trophy to COM in his son’s name because he was noted for his sportsmanlike ways.

Mark Swinehart has been a recipient of this award multiple times and is a perennial nominee regarding his sportsmanship. As of this writing, Mark is the longest serving currently active member of COM Sports Car Club having competed in more than 135 events (more than any other member). Mark has set such an example over the years that in 2020, the COM Board of Directors voted to add his name to the title.

The William F. McMahon British Cup

Awarded to the season’s highest points scoring driver of a British automobile. (Renamed for Bill McMahon – 2018)

Bill McMahon was long standing member of COM, competing in 41 TT events with 16 of those finishing on the podium. Bill won class championships in 2009, 2010, and 2013, receiving this very award, and was also an honored recipient of the Racing Against Leukemia Award within the same time period – 2009, and 2011. Bill passed away in 2018 from an extended battle with cancer. He was an example of courage in the face of adversity, showing all of us that one doesn’t just stop following their path because of some bumps in the road.

The Japanese Cup

Presented annually to the COM member for their competitive spirit in a Japanese sports car.

At an informal party back in 1983, that several COM members were attending (many of whom were down to some serious partying, we’ve been told), Dave Sherman piped up and said that “there ought to be a Japanese award; after all, we do have a British award.” So Cathie Denomme suggested he donate one and so he did.

The Japanese Cup, (filled with Sake) is presented to the driver of a Japanese car who had been the most outstanding driver in competition among the Japanese cars.

The Deutsche Autofahrer Anerkennung

Awarded to the driver of a car produced by a German auto manufacturer who has had the most outstanding performance over the course of the year.

The number of points that a driver has won during the course of the championship series will be considered in deciding the winner of the award, however, that should not be the only factor involved. The members of the committee should look at the level of competition in each of the classes and choose the driver who has done the best against the highest level of competition. The award was designed with passenger cars in mind. The existence of German-made formula cars is acknowledged, but these cars are not considered to be eligible for the trophy at this time. This award was donated to the club by Dave Burden who received the various emblems from area car dealerships (Tulley-BMW, Cavanaugh Brothers, Nault’s and Nashua Auto).

Steve earned three class championships, participating in seventy events, achieving forty-two podiums with twenty of those being first place finishes, and three TT lap records. (T-30 Mosport, Pocono, NHMS North Chicane). Being the original owner of his 1990 Miata racecar, Steve was a defiant champion of the platform. The car transformed gradually into the now famous #232. Steve passed away during the summer of 2018 from long battle with leukemia. Points, based on the COM scoring system, may be scored in any COMSCC class and must be scored in a Mazda powered Miata, but not necessarily in the same Miata or in the same class. The trophy was donated by former board member Nate Hine, and former COM president John Spain.
