(Perris, CA, October 25, 2013) All Coast Construction announced on Friday morning that it is adding $5,000.00 to the purse for the 18th Annual Budweiser Oval Nationals at Perris Auto Speedway on November 1st and 2nd. The additional money will go to the PAS Senior Sprints Cars, California Lightning Sprint Cars and 360 sprint cars that compete against the 410’s on the 1st and 2nd.
The news was revealed by All Coast Construction owner Mike Grosswendt on Friday morning while driving to Arizona with Loudpedal Productions Mike Truex and Dennis Rodriguez for this weekend’s “Hall of Fame Classic” at Canyon Speedway Park.”
“It is important to me that the Oval Nationals is a party for everyone,” Grosswendt said via phone on Friday morning. “D Rod (Rodriguez) came up with the breakdown on the purse.”
$3,000.00 of the extra money will go to the top four 360 finishing cars racing against the 410’s of the USAC National and CRA Series on Friday and Saturday nights ($1,500.00 per night). Each night the highest finishing 360 will get $750.00, second will receive $350.00, third will pocket $250.00 and fourth will take home $150.00. The money will pay back into the B or C Mains if necessary (if four 360 cars do not make the A mains).

The money will be paid to the top three finishers with the winner getting a $500.00 bonus, 2nd will earn an extra $300.00 and third will take home an additional $200.00.
