Increased Point Funds announced for 2010 at Lucas Oil Speedway

Wheatland, MO (March 31st, 2010)- With the 2010 racing season now only days away, Officials with Lucas Oil Speedway are pleased to announce a new and improved points fund for 2010. The 2010 Track Champions in the TNT Quick Shop Late Models, the Pitt's Homes A-Modifieds, and the Carson's Corner Napa Factory Stocks will each receive a minimum of $2,000, $1,500, and $600 respectively in cash plus an improved contingency program.

The most noticeable difference from past seasons is that all drivers that run at least 70% of the shows in their respective classes are now eligible for Post-Season awards including cash and contingencies. It is required in 2010 that you participate in at least 70% of the available races to be eligible for postseason awards. Events rained out or otherwise canceled shall not count against the requirement for eligibility in the championship point fund. In previous seasons, only the Top 10 regardless of the number of races attempted were eligible.
