Wow! Late model drivers in Nebraska got it bad! I 80 speedway is the only one that pays more than 500 to win on regular shows and it's $900 at that.

The SUPER Late models at I-80 pay $900 to win. It's the only track in Nebraska that runs Supers. All those other tracks along with I-80 run limited late models aka Grand Nationals for $500 to win.

The super late model class doesn't count towards the bragging rights deal.
