Tulare, CA - September 10, 2007...When the U.S. Western Modified Nationals go green on September 27-29 at Tulare’s Thunderbowl Raceway, various awards and goodies will be up for grabs by drivers and fans alike. The team that makes the longest tow to the U.S. Western Modified Nationals will win $500, the biggest crew will get $500 and an open drawing for all teams will pay $500 to the winner.
During the weekend there will also be various booths set up with items where you can drop a $1 ticket into for multiple drawings that will be held at the event. Every dollar collected will go to the Make-A-Wish Foundation.
The Make-A-Wish Foundation will be a focus during the weekend as the first ever tire change challenge during the U.S. Western Modified Nationals on Saturday at 1pm will benefit this fabulous organization as well. For a donation to Make-A-Wish people can enter the pits and watch the competition. During the tire change challenge there will be two bikes up for grabs for a lucky boy or girls. Tickets for the bike drawing will be on sale for just 50 cents. There will also be event posters on sale so you can get driver and team autographs to commemorate the first ever U.S. Western Modified Nationals. The team that wins the tire change challenge will receive $500, 2nd place $400, 3rd place $300, 2nd place $200 and 5th $100. 1st through 5th in the challenge will also receive plaques.
Little Darlins is also stepping up in a big way to support the Nationals hard charger awards. The hard charger on Thursday and Friday will be awarded $100 each night and Saturday’s hard charger will receive a $200 modified car cover made by Race Coveralls. In addition to that another $200 modified Race Coverall cover will be given away at random on Saturday night. Also on Saturday the hard charger of each of the six semi mains will get $50 apiece. All this is sponsored by Little Darlins who we can’t thank enough for their generous support.
