Owners Clint Gann and Tina Davis have added an incentive plan based on car count.

"We know things are going to be tough with the rising cost of things today for the racer, so based on car count we have been able to add some extra cash thanks to some great marketing partners that came on board.

If the class has 14 or more entries we will pay $100 to start and the big prize is 25 entries or more we pay $1,000 to win with the runner-up pocketing $500, pushing the payoff down one spot with the added money at the top.
