As for those looking to make a mark, the rewards don’t stop there. Fourth place in the points standings will receive $500, fifth place $300, and sixth takes home $200. Talk about a competitive spirit!

The opening round kicks off big with The Icebreaker at Florence on February 8. And that’s just the start! Keep your engines running for these upcoming thrillers:
