It's back: The 'Cannonball Challenge' for Late Models ...

This year Cannonball Motor Speedway will pay an additional $500 to the feature winner every Friday if the driver and car were one of the top four finishers of a feature at another area track the Saturday prior to Cannonball's Friday night feature race.

HOW "The CHALLENGE"  WILL WORK:

Run at the following Saturday night tracks:

MUSKINGUM COUNTY SPEEDWAY
TYLER COUNTY SPEEDWAY
MIDWAY

WAYNE COUNTY SPEEDWAY
PENNSYLVANIA MOTOR SPEEDWAY
ROARING KNOB

One Sunday track: LATROBE

Finish first, second, third or fourth in your feature and you may come to Cannonball the following Friday night and have a chance to WIN an ADDITIONAL $500 if you are the FEATURE WINNER that night!

Cannonball management will verify the top four winners of these tracks weekly.

Should you become a top-four finisher at one of the tracks mentioned above and Cannonball's races rain out the following Friday, you are welcome to race the next Friday.

NEW to the CHALLENGE THIS YEAR: Any Late Model car and driver that runs three consecutive Friday nights at Cannonball will also be eligible for the Challenge on their fourth Friday night at Cannonball. This applies only to THREE CONSECUTIVE FRIDAY NIGHTS! Miss one week, start over until you have run three weeks in a row at Cannonball.

Management will confirm eligible cars and drivers weekly.

NOTE: This is to clarify any controversy over qualification concerning the Cannonball Challenge:

To be eligible for the Cannonball Challenge you must race at one of the tracks listed below, provided they DO NOT RACE on Friday night. If or when any of these tracks elect to become a Friday night track, then those racers are not eligible for the Cannonball Challenge.

IF ANY OF THE ABOVE-MENTIONED TRACKS HAVE A FRIDAY NIGHT RACE, THAT TRACK WILL NOT BE ELIGIBLE FOR THE CHALLENGE THAT WEEK!

This rule does not purposely discriminate against any driver or track.
