The 2026 Dirty Dozen Calendar competition will be the 10th calendar! While we always take feedback each year, we're exploring multiple potential options for contest improvements and we would love your feedback. THESE ARE JUST POSSIBILITIES. Many of them may never be implemented. We always strive to improve and perfect this competition each year!

Should the competition have an elimination element in each round where a certain number of drivers are eliminated each day? *

For example, if 240 drivers are entered into Round 1, every day the last 40 drivers are eliminated. This may encourage drivers to try and always be above the cut line.

Should the winner of the First Round have the option to compete in the Second Round and if they win the Second Round have a guaranteed spot in the Dirty Dozen Calendar? *

Should the contest be expanded beyond 240 entries? *

How many rounds should there be? *

Would the contest be more engaging if it was a Bracket type element with head to head competitions?

One of the most significant issues with the early rounds is the massive list of drivers and the difficulty with finding your driver. This would make the contest more personal and create more rivalries. Drivers would be grouped accordingly and compete against one another. The winner of that group would be guaranteed a spot in the Calendar. There would be a separate vote for just the Cover.

Should voters be limited to the number of drivers they can vote on? *

Currently, voters can select an unlimited number of candidates.

What changes would you suggest for the Dirty Dozen Calendar? *

Would you support a contest where each class has their own poll and the Top 3 finishers advance to the Final Round? *

In the interest of equal representation of all 8 WISSOTA classes, we're trying to think of potential ways to expand the contest to every division. This would ensure each WISSOTA division is represented equally.

Should drivers who have made the Final Round, but did not make the calendar be featured in the calendar?

There are multiple open pages in the calendar, and while those outside the Top 12 would not get their own page, there could be a potential spot for a few of them to share a page.

Should drivers who have qualified for the Final Round be required to post a campaign video or post to Social Media?

We receive a lot of feedback about ways people wish drivers would engage with fans and the requirement would be of a video or post explaining why they want your vote.

With improvements in technology there are numerous ways to vote now. Would you support adding in the ability of Text to Vote?

American Idol, Dancing with the Stars, and other shows utilize this technology.

Keep Your Votes Challenge! Any of the Top 2 finishing drivers who transfer to the Final Round will have the option of keeping their votes and sitting out the Final Round.

Drivers finishing in the top 2 would have the option of keeping all of their votes from the previous rounds and would not compete in the Final Round. Their previous round vote totals would compete against everyone else in the Final Round.

For example, if Driver A received 2000 votes between the first 2 rounds and chose the Keep Your Votes Challenge! Everyone else would need to get 2001+ to beat them in the Final Round.

This gives drivers the option to roll the dice or benefit from good opening rounds.

Would you support a competition where there is a guaranteed spot in the calendar for each of Wissota's 8 divisions with the remaining 4 spots going to any class? *
