Tire Mid-Atlantic and Precise Racing Products are proud to announce a new
Driver Rewards Program for E-mod competitors in the Ohio, Western NY, and
Pennsylvania region. HTMA/Precise has posted a guaranteed minimum $11,500 cash
point fund plus tire/product contingencies that will be paid directly to our
teams in this competitive area for the 2012 racing season.
“We definitely felt it was time to get back
to rewarding the racers for their support of our Hoosier product,” stated
HTMA/Precise General Manager Bob Wirts. “We needed to develop a simple,
performance-based reward system. If the drivers get rewarded, so will the
racetracks, with higher and more consistent car counts. We also wanted to limit
the amount of change required to continue racing in these difficult economic
times.”
For 2012, HTMA/Precise will provide a minimum
$11,500 cash point fund to the E-mod racers at HTMA Regional tracks utilizing a
traditional 8 inch, open competition tire rule. Any E-mod competitor utilizing
Hoosier Tires exclusively will be eligible for the program. There will be no
additional fees to the tracks or competitors to participate.
Finishing orders from weekly events will be
submitted by the track to the HTMA/Precise Driver Reward Program Administrator
and points will be kept. Final point standings will be based on a driver’s
top finishes with a bonus point structure based on car count. The top 15 in
final points will be rewarded with their share of a guaranteed minimum $11,500
point fund.
“We are pleased to announce that four
tracks and one series have already signed on to support the program,” continued
Mr. Wirts. “Hoosier-shod competitors at Eriez Speedway, Sharon Speedway,
Raceway 7, Roaring Knob, and the UEMS Series events will all be eligible for
rewards. We would especially like to thank Applebee Motorsports and Wedge
Motorsports for their contributions thus far. We hope to add more tracks,
drivers, and contingency awards to the program soon.”
If
you would like your track to be part of the HTMA/Precise Driver Rewards
Program, please contact Bob Wirts via e-mail to bob@hoosiermidatlantic.com
