May 18, 2017 – IMCA Racesaver Sprint Cars have been added to the lineup at the Front Row Challenge at the Southern Iowa Speedway in Oskaloosa, Iowa on Monday, August 7. The Racesavers will join the headlining 410 sprints on the car. Their feature will pay $750 to win, and in “Front Row Challenge fashion”, there will be more contingencies for heat and feature winners!
The winner of this year’s Front Row Challenge will again bank $20,000, one of the highest one-day payouts in the country! In addition to the big payday, this year’s winner will be awarded a golden ticket to both the Dirt Classic Ohio event at Attica Raceway Park September 1 and 2 and the “Dirt Classic 4”, held Saturday, September 23 at Lincoln Speedway near Abbottstown, Pennsylvania.
The race is known for its contingencies, awarded to all heat winners, B winner and various other promotions throughout the night. Returning in 2017 will be the Keith Hutton/TK Concrete “King of the Hill” Match Race. It will not only pay $1,000 to the winner, but determine the pole-sitter for the $20,000 to win main event! The “King of the Hill” Match Races are popular with sprint car fans around the world, and pit the top eight qualifiers through the heats in one-on-one two-lap match races.
Who will take home the $20,000 paycheck and the championship belt that goes with it? You have to be there to find out!
To purchase tickets or if you have questions, call 515 957-0020 weekdays from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m.!
