DEVIL'S BOWL SPEEDWAY: Big Money on the Line at Devil’s Bowl for Vermont 200 Weekend
Late Model winner may earn more than $5,000
For Immediate Release DBS-091113-1
WEST HAVEN, VT – Devil's Bowl Speedway is opening the vault for the Vermont 200 Championship Weekend on September 14-15. A base purse of more than $25,000 has been posted for the two-day stock car racing extravaganza, with the potential for it to grow to over $30,000.
The headline event is the 100-lap Vermont State Late Model Championship Series finale, boasting a payout starting at over $11,000. However, a graduated winner's incentive has been built into the prize fund: With up to 24 entries, the winner earns $1,500. If the field expands to 25-29 cars, top prize is $2,000. The fund grows to $2,500 with 30-39 teams, and a field of 40 or more entries makes the winner's share a whopping $5,000 – potentially the largest payoff in Devil's Bowl Speedway's recent history. All starters are guaranteed a minimum of $250, regardless of car count.
Twin 50-lap features for the Bond Auto Parts Modified division – which award points for the weekly NASCAR Whelen All-American Series track championship and the new Northern Modified Challenge Series – each offer more than $5,000 total prize money. The winner of each race will pocket $1,200, and all starters will take home a minimum total of $200.
A two-segment, 40-lap race for the eight-cylinder Renegade division – which is expected to draw a record field of entries – pays $350 to win and a minimum of $50 to take the green flag. The 25-lap Central Vermont Motorcycles Mini Stock division finale offers $200 to the winner and at least $50 to every starter. A graduated purse for the 75-lap Enduro Series finale has also been announced, with a minimum of $350 to win for up to 24 entries, up to $1,500 to win with 50 cars or more.
Several bonuses have also been posted: A $125 Halfway Bonus will go to the driver who leads Lap 25 in each Modified race and Lap 50 of the Late Model finale, and Bond Auto Parts has posted a $50 "Hard Charger" prize for the driver who improves their position the most in the Renegade and Mini Stock features.
