A Tissot watch was collected as a prize alongside the International Motorsports Hall of Fame Driver of the Year Trophy by drag racer Tony Schumacher last week.Schumacher, who races for the US Army National Hot Rod Association (NHRA) Top Fuel team, won the 2008 Driver of the Year in Talladega Alabama.He is the third NHRA driver to win the award, after John Force captured the award in 1996.Schumacher said: "While we've already turned the page to the 2009 season, it's nice to be able to reflect on what was truly a historic season."When I look back to last year, I feel blessed I was part of such a great team. I'm not sure we'll ever see that kind of dominance again in drag racing."Tissot watches were recently mentioned alongside another award, when Ryan Newman picked up the NASCAR Sprint Cup Tissot Pit Road Precision award earlier this month.

You may recall that it was about this time last year that I showed you the new Tissot Seastar 1000 which was being reintroduced by the brand after a short absence from the marketplace.? Although I rarely cover Tissot due to my preference for higher-end mechanical watches, the feedback on this watch from You the readers was overwhelmingly positive (comments and counting), so I am glad to follow it up again this year.
