There are 9 races on the 2009 schedule where the Nationwide Series has top billing.
There will be four “Dash 4 Cash” races this year :
Nashville Superspeedway - April 11th / Winner = Joey Logano (NOT Eligible/NO Points)
Kentucky Speedway - June 13th
Iowa Speedway - August 01st
Memphis Motorsports Park - October 24th
The “Dash 4 Cash” program puts a $25,000 bonus on the line for an eligible driver if he wins the race.
It’s open to all Nationwide Series full-season REGULARS and limited schedule REGULARS.
Double-duty drivers must be FULL-TIME in BOTH the Nationwide & Sprint Cup Series to be eligible for the bonus.
Carl Edwards & Kyle Busch are ELIGIBLE since they’re the only full-time double-duty drivers in BOTH series.
Carl Edwards is the current Nationwide Series points leader & Kyle Busch is in second-place.
Joey Logano, David Ragan, Clint Bowyer, Matt Kenseth, Greg Biffle, Michael Waltrip, etc are NOT eligible.
They are full time on the Sprint Cup side, but only compete on a limited basis in the Nationwide Series.
Should a “Dash 4 Cash” race winner not be eligible, the $25,000 payout rolls over to the next Dash 4 Cash race.
(NOTE : Kentucky will now be worth $50,000 to an eligible driver.)
At the end of the four-race Dash 4 Cash schedule :
The eligible driver with the most cumulative points from the 4 events will be awarded an additional $50,000.
