Just six weeks from today the tour is set to launch its third year campaign at an all new touring venue but one that boasts an impressive modified resume, the County Line Raceway in Elm City, NC. Anticipation is trending up at a rapid rate as the tour gets set to pay its first ever five figure event winner. As a result twenty two early entries from six different states have already mailed their intentions into the Renegade of Dirt offices vying for the shot at over $45,000 dollars in purse.
