20th Annual Brad Doty Classic to Feature $10,000 Clean Sweep Bonus
Lima, OH--Limaland Motorsports Park announces the University of Northwestern Ohio (UNOH) "$10,000 Clean Sweep Bonus" in conjunction with the 20th Annual Fram/Autolite Brad Doty Classic. All drivers competing in the Advance Auto Parts World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series sanctioned Brad Doty Classic are eligible for the bonus, which will be paid to any driver who can set fast time, win a heat race, win the dash, and win the 40-lap A-main during the 20th Annual Fram/Autolite Brad Doty Classic on July 9 at Limaland Motorsports Park in Lima, Ohio.
With the race paying out over $50,000 in prize money and the winner already receiving $10,000, there is a possibility that someone could take home a $20,000 paycheck for winning the 20th running of the Brad Doty Classic.
"This is going to be a great event." said Doty. "We have Fram/Autolite returning as the title sponsor for the second year and now the University of Northwestern Ohio has gotten behind the $10,000 Clean Sweep Bonus. Limaland Motorsports Park is known as a high speed, high banked ¼-mile where the racing is a close as it gets. There is a real possibility that someone can pull of the sweep and this will just add more drama to an already adrenaline filled night."
Jac Haudenschild won the Brad Doty Classic in 2007, leading all 40 laps, with 20-time World of Outlaws champion Steve Kinser in second. Jason Meyers was third followed by Craig Dollansky in fourth and Brooke Tatnell in fifth. There have been 18 different drivers win the Brad Doty Classic, dating back to the inaugural event in 1989, with Danny Smith being the only two-time winner. The 2008 racing season will mark the 11th year that the University of Northwestern Ohio has owned and operated Limaland Motorsports Park, which is in its 73rd year of hosting racing. This will mark the seventh visit by the Advance Auto Parts World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series to what is one of the most highly regarded tracks on the schedule. In the previous six events at the ¼-mile, four different drivers have visited the winner's circle.
