\n<\/u><\/strong>Promoter Bob Sargent has upped the winner\u2019s share of the Summer Nationals Late Model Feature to $7,500 from its original $5,000 setting for the tour\u2019s 16th visit to Lincoln. The track hosted the unofficial “Race of the Year” on last year’s Summer Nationals slate when four drivers took center stage in an incredible, back-and-forth scramble in the closing laps that ended with Jason Feger in Victory Lane.<\/p>\n
\nThe 3\/8-mile, red clay oval of Lake Cumberland will mark the 107th different track the Summer Nationals has visited in its 38-year history when it welcomes the Late Models (and the Summit Modifieds) for the first time on July 2. Promoter Brandon Hardgrove and sponsor Speda Supers have joined forces to present a $7,500 check to the Late Model Feature winner in the Hell Tour\u2019s debut.<\/p>\n
\nFor the first time in its 43-year history, the iconic Herald & Review 100 will hand the winner of the 100-lap Feature a $7,500 check for their triumph in one of Illinois motorsports\u2019 most prestigious events. Never has an H&R winner took home a figure this large, thanks to new track owner\/promoter Chris Kearns and the Macon Speedway family and its supporters.<\/p>\n
