FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Pulaski, PA)...The
Hovis Auto & Truck Supply RUSH Dirt Late Model Series presented by Born2Run
Lubricants is proud to welcome back three major marketing partners for the 2025
season. Rick Hendrick City
Chevrolet will return to present both
the National Weekly Series and Track Pack, while Flynn's Tire and Gunter's Honey
will co-present the Touring Series.
In addition, 3C Graphix will present the Touring Series Rookie-of-the-Year for
the second straight season as the highest finishing rookie in points will earn
an additional $3,000!
City Chevrolet, who has had a longtime involvement in motorsports as well as a
leader in Chevrolet Performance crate engine racing since its inception, first
became a RUSH marketing partner at the end of the 2022 season when it was one of
the major sponsors of the “Bill Hendren Memorial”.
That sponsorship has continued, which has allowed the Saturday night
finale at Pittsburgh PA Motor Speedway to pay $10,000 to-win each of the past
three seasons.
For the third straight year, City Chevrolet will present both the National
Weekly Series and Track Pack. The
two-part program totals more than $60,000, unmatched by any like series in the
country, and features the National Weekly Series Championship that boasts a
$27,525 40-position paying point fund plus the Track Pack program. The
Track Pack pays each of the 13 RUSH Weekly-sanctioned speedway a $2,500 points
fund for the top six RUSH members ($1000, $500, $400, $300, $200, $100).
It has become an extremely popular program as numerous RUSH Late Model racers
are able to capture substantial dollars, many of which never leave their home
speedway(s); meanwhile others are able to add bonus dollars to their National
Weekly Series monies!
For the fifth straight year, Flynn's Tire will co-present the Touring Series
Championship, and will be joined for the second straight year by Gunter's Honey.
The richest season in Series history will include a minimum of 22 events
all paying between $4,000 to $20,000 to-win and boasting a $76,200 point fund
with $20,000 to the champion! The 2024 Flynn's Tire/Gunter's Honey Touring
Series season saw a record high average car count of 40 per event along with the
strongest following of full-time member drivers in history at 13!
