To 2019 DIRTcar Late Model Teams: Thank you in advance for supporting the 31st annual DIRTcar Summer Nationals. Please find attached the details of the tour and we invite you to participate, whether it’s in one event or all 28 events. Review the attached documents and don’t hesitate to call if you have any questions. We are pleased to offer an $80,100.00 point fund for the Late Models this year. Again, five weekly point fund rewards with a total of $5,000.00 distributed to the top ten ($2,000.00 to the weekly point leader) as well as an overall point fund. With the support of the five weekly sponsors, the series ending point fund returns to $55,100 paying the top ten and $25,000 for the champion. Drivers can collect rewards for participating in all the events or one of the five weeks. Also, we are joining with the World of Outlaws Morton Buildings Late Model Series again for the Friday June 28 and Saturday June 29 combined events. For your information….. This year’s schedule is 28 races in 32 days. If you win every Summer Nationals event, you will collect $235,000.00 - $200,000.00 in first place purse, $25.000.00 for first in the points title champion and $10,000 weekly first place. You have driven 3860 miles in about 58.5 hours making it the “Highway to Hell”. It sounds like a piece of cake to me. The only way you will know is to come back night after night. New this year is live streaming of all Summer Nationals / Summit Modified Series events. Dirt on Dirt and DIRTVision have partnered for this unprecedented exposure. Your family, friends and sponsors will be able to catch every minute of action. Check out the package on DIRTVision.com. Follow all the news and updates at www.thehelltour.com or www.dirtcar.com or www.dirtondirt.com We welcome back our great supporters of product and contingency sponsors. Many of these awards are cash and simply require decal placement. A driver could earn from $50.00 to $350.00 per night in additional awards sponsorship money. Many of these companies and supporters understand how tough the “Hell Tour” can be and will award cash as opposed to product. It will be important that you all have the decals on the cars to be eligible for this cash and product. Over $40,000.00 will be awarded in cash and products.
