Reliable Chevrolet Bumps Up Crate Engine Incentive for 2011!
WHEATLAND, MO (January 11, 2011) - Officials with Lucas Oil Speedway in
Wheatland, Missouri and Representatives from Reliable Chevrolet in
Springfield, Missouri are excited to announce a new and improved GM Crate
Engine Incentive Program for 2011. This program applies to all drivers
utilizing a Factory Sealed GM 602 or 604 Crate Engine in the TNT Quick Shop
ULMA Late Model Class at Lucas Oil Speedway in 2011. "We really applaud
Reliable Chevrolet for stepping up their program for 2011." stated Lucas Oil
Speedway General Manager Dan Robinson. "This updated program will now give a
driver the opportunity to win $1,000 per night if they capture the Feature
Win with a GM Crate Engine purchased at Reliable Chevrolet."
A $300 bonus will be paid to the highest finishing driver utilizing a
Factory Sealed GM Crate Engine if the engine was purchased at Reliable
Chevrolet and has not been rebuilt. An extra $100 will go to the second
highest finishing driver utilizing a Factory Sealed GM Crate Engine
purchased at Reliable Chevrolet. By combining the standard $700 to win plus
the $300 bonus, a win in a Crate Engine car could be worth as much as $1,000
in 2011.
If a driver is the highest finishing driver utilizing a GM Factory Sealed
Engine but was not an engine purchased at Reliable Chevrolet, the driver
will still earn $100, while a second driver could earn an extra $50 if they
are the second highest finisher running a GM Factory Sealed Engine but not
purchased at Reliable Chevrolet. There will only be two awards given per
night, Lucas Oil Speedway Officials and Reliable Chevrolet Representives
will determine the authenticity of the place of purchase through serial
numbers and purchase documentation to determine the level of awards on a
nightly basis.
The winner of the bonus money each night must pass a thorough Technical
Inspection and be deemed Legal by the Lucas Oil Speedway Technical Staff
prior to receiving the bonus. This money will be paid on top of any standard
Lucas Oil Speedway winnings that night. There are 15 scheduled races this
season in the TNT Quick Shop ULMA Late Model class. For complete rules
concerning the engine options with ULMA, please visit
