A glance at his trophy showcase would leave you amazed, a testament to the powerhouse racing talent that he is. Yet, amidst the sparkles of his accolades, a particular absence is glaringly conspicuous – the elusive Tom Dawson Trophy.

The trophy, named after the late Tom Dawson – the founder of the Five Flags Speedway in Pensacola – has been an elusive target for Pollard.
The Dawson Trophy symbolizes victory and the heart and soul of racing at Pensacola. Sure, it would seem fitting for it to grace Pollard’s collection.
