TNT Super Series Announces Points Fund
Ted Barnes - February 1, 2008
Joe’s Transmission TNT 10.90 Super Series – Huge Step Forward for 2008 Points Chase!
NIAGARA FALLS, ONTARIO (January 30, 2008) The Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series is excited to announce there will be a yearend points fund for the 2008 season! “This was something we wanted to do in 2007 but couldn’t bring it together,” stated Ted Barnes, Series Director. “$1000 will go to the points champion and we’ll pay down to 5th place - all for a $25 entry fee. On top of that, we already have additional prizes for the points champion!”
In 2008, the series will pay cash to the top 5 finishers.
Here are the year-end payouts:
| 1st | $1000 |
| 2nd | $500 |
| 3rd | $300 |
| 4th | $150 |
| 5th | $50 |
Joe Boniferro of Joe’s Transmission has been a key component in making this happen. “Without Joe’s help, this wouldn’t be possible,” added Ted. “I know the racers appreciate his support.”
PLUS – each of the top 5 racers will receive an embroidered leather jacket. “We wanted to make the jackets something the racers would remember. So we sourced a quality leather piece and added the embroidered logos,” commented Boniferro.
The points system is also undergoing wholesale changes. Points will be calculated in a similar way to the IHRA Pro Am system - with the addition of bonus points for qualifying. “We figured everyone understood the IHRA system so why re-invent the wheel. With 4 races planned on each side of the border, the points championship will be determined using the best 3 out of 4 events in Canada plus the best 3 out of 4 events in the US.” Finalized dates & locations are yet to be announced.
