Rookie of the Year

41-year-old Mike Stefanik won the Rookie of the Year honors in the Truck Series in 1999, finishing in the top-ten nine times on his way to a thirteenth-place points finish. Runner-up Scott Hansen had three top-tens in a Ken Schrader-owned truck, while David Starr drove 24 races for various owners. Marty Houston, Phil Bonifield, Ryan McGlynn, and former ARCA champion Tim Steele ran limited schedules during the season. Nipper Alsup, Ernie Cope, Mike Clark, and Randy Nelson all failed to meet the minimum requirements to contend for the top Rookie honors.
