The Speedway returns to action this Saturday April 19th to host Round 1 of the Victory Lap Late Model $25,000 Challenge presented by BB&T. This is a chance for some driver or drivers to take home some serious cash if they can pull off multiple wins in the four race series.

The four race series will once again offer a bonus program for multiple wins. The Victory Lap Late Model $25,000 Challenge will pay a $5,000 bonus to anyone winning two of the four events; it goes to $15,000 if a driver can win three of four events; and finally, if a driver sweeps all four events that driver would pick up a cool $25,000 bonus. Track rules for the Victory Lap Late Model Division will apply.
