Barber Dodge Pro Series Increases Prize Money

In conjunction with the previously announced increases in the champion’s bonus (from $150,000 to $300,000) and the Barber Dodge "Rookie of the Year" prize (from $75,000 to $150,000), it puts the Barber Dodge total season purse over one million dollars ($1,166,300 to be exact) for the first time in series history.

"We anticipate full fields of 30 and the possible addition of another race to our traditional 12-race schedule," Sewell said. "This fattening of the race and season purses assures that our prize money is commensurate with Barber Dodge’s increased recognition and visibility."
