Placerville, CA…The fast-approaching season opener for the Sprint Car Challenge Tour on March 25th at Placerville Speedway will dish out $3,000 to the winner, with the announcement of the Shop Kyle Larson A-main Bonus Award returning in 2023.
“We want to thank Kyle Larson and www.shopkylelarson.com for their support once again this season,” commented SCCT President Scott Russell. “The unique thing about this bonus money is that it rewards the teams who show commitment and dedication to the Sprint Car Challenge Tour throughout the year. We are looking forward to a fantastic 2023 and can’t wait to get it started at Placerville Speedway later this month.”
Full-time teams/owners who win an Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour presented by Abreu Vineyards A-main this season will go home with a $500 bonus courtesy of www.shopkylelarson.com which is the official place to shop for merchandise from the 2021 NASCAR Cup champion.
Since ALL car owner and driver teams will be considered full-time SCCT participants at the first race, the $500 perk will be paid to the A-Main winner on March 25th at Placerville Speedway.
With the sponsorship, it allows full-time Sprint Car Challenge Tour competitors the opportunity to race for a minimum of $3,000-to-win each night.
If a tour regular doesn’t win the feature on a certain night, that $500 will roll over to be used at a later date.
Standard nightly payouts for the Elk Grove Ford Sprint Car Challenge Tour presented by Abreu Vineyards will once again be $2,500-to-win and $400-to-start the A-main.
