"It acknowledges the engine's vital role as the heart and soul of every car, and recognizes the effort and excellence that goes into the design and manufacture. For the last 19 years, the auto industry has embraced the awards as its own 'Oscars for Engines,' and made it an annual 'must-attend' event. It's especially gratifying that we, in turn, have now earned FAME's recognition as the best awards program in our category."
