VINTON, Iowa (March 25) –
Top 15 drivers in final standings for the Deery Brothers Summer Series
receive shares of the IMCA Late Model tour point fund again in 2010. The champion earns $5,000
of the $20,400 to be paid out this fall. Sixteen events are on the upcoming
schedule. “The point fund is based
on the number of events scheduled,” IMCA Vice President of Operations Brett
Root said. “Drivers who finish in the top 15 need to compete at every event
in order to receive 100 percent of their point fund share. If not, the
amount they receive will be determined based on the number of races they
attended.” Fifteenth place will pay
$300 to a driver competing all 16 nights. Any rainouts that cannot be
rescheduled will not affect the total or individual point fund amounts. All events will pay a
minimum of $2,000 to win and $250 to start. Non-feature qualifiers will get
$100. “A conscious effort was
made to make it easier for drivers and race tracks alike to be part of the
24th annual series,” said Root. “The support this tour continues
to receive from the Deery Brothers Automotive Group is outstanding and we
look forward to a very good year.” Theme for the upcoming
series is “The Power of Ten,” which bears both the obvious mathematical and
2010 season references.
