FOUNTAIN CITY, Wis. -- Mississippi Thunder Speedway is ready, once again, to show the racers the money.

Jack Baehman of Baehman Law – a long-time supporter of Mississippi Thunder Speedway and the Black Horse Bar & Grill USRA B-Mod division – is once again stepping up to the pay window for the 2013 racing season with a significant contribution to the weekly payout for the class.

Baehman has worked closely with track management during the off season to develop a program that will help out all USRA B-Mod drivers who support Mississippi Thunder Speedway on a weekly basis.

“With the cost of racing continuing to rise every year, I wanted to do something that would help everyone in the class, not just those that run in the top five,” explained Baehman. “This enhanced purse pays more money to everyone in the field from top to bottom.”

But Baehman’s support doesn’t stop at the weekly purse increase. Once again, Baehman will sponsor the 5th Annual Baehman Law B-Mod Challenge on July 19 which will pay a minimum of $1,000 to the winner.

And if that’s not enough, Baehman has already agreed to return as title sponsor of the 2nd Annual Baehman Law B-Mod Nationals slated for Sept. 4-7 which pays a record-setting $10,000 to the event winner.

In addition to one of the best weekly payouts and the above listed events, USRA B-Mod drivers have an incredible 2013 season coming up at Mississippi Thunder Speedway with other notable special events such as the Iron Man Challenge for USRA B-Mods on May 3, the 3rd Annual Rivercity Rumble paying USRA B-Mods $2,000 to win and the $500-to-win Fall Festival on Oct. 5.

Wrap all this together into a single season and it's clear why Mississippi Thunder Speedway is quickly becoming referred to by many as the “B-Mod Capital of America.” It may be impossible to find a racetrack that will award B-Mods racers more purse money in 2013 than the Mississippi Thunder Speedway.

The regular weekly USRA B-Mod payout for 2013 is as follows: 1. $400, 2.. $300, 3. $250, 4. $200, 5. $150, 6. $125, 7-10. $100, 11. $90, 12. $85, 13-24. $80.

The only requirement to be eligible for the bonus money is to have the appropriate sponsor’s sticker displayed on both sides of your car. Stickers will be available at the Mississippi Thunder Speedway scale house.

The Mississippi Thunder Speedway is located 3.0 miles north of Fountain City on Hwy. 35. For more information call 608-687-3282 or visit www.mississippithunder.com on the World Wide Web.
