    Not sure on that; but the minimum payout for a MARS race has always been $3,000 to win.

    I hope Lincoln gets a date. That place is very underrated and supers put on a great show there.

    Looks like I will be attending my first Thaw Brawl. Very nice facility at Donnellson. Only 76 days away!

    Wonder which drivers are potentials to follow the full series. There are a couple conflicting dates with major races, such as the USA Nationals at Cedar Lake. Here is some I am hoping will follow most of it:

    Frank Heckenast Jr.
    Mike Spatola
    Rich Bell
    Chris Simpson
    Chad Simpson
    Terry Phillips
    Ryan Unzicker
    Jason Feger
    Gordy Gundaker
    Shannon Babb
    Tanner English

    Has there been any mention of a points fund, or something similar? Without that, I don't know you'd get anyone to follow any series, other than for individual races.

    I was considering it, but I'm not making headlines either way. I'd almost guarantee Rich Bell will, especially with the Ethanol series folding. We shall see...I wish them success!

    I was wondering about a points fund as well. I would say if you can develop sponsors to give out 10k to the champion that would entice a few guys with only 15 races or so. Or possibly to provide some tow money to your top 8 in points.

    I'd be willing to bet that Tony is looking at all angles to make the MARS Racing Series a success in his first season running the series.

    Per MARS Facebook page:

    "We are really excited at the response we have received from so many regarding the 2020 schedule. We also have received alot of questions regarding the tire rule and the complete payout for $3,000 and $5,000 to win races. All this information is posted at marsracingseries.com under driver info. You will notice we still have to post the $10,000 to win race payouts. The tire rule will be the offical tire rule at all events. We hope to post something soon regarding points fund, show up money, $10,000 to win payouts and etc. We are working on this everyday and will keep everyone posted as we have information to announce."

    I am thinking most on this list will follow about half. Babb has several on his schedule already.
