Attention Big Car Drivers:


We would like to have another class of big cars at this year Monster Mash! So, we will be adding a Big Car MODIFIED class with 100% payback.

This modified class (which has been added to the top post of this thread) will be on the based on cars that have been built to the following:
Casey County, KY Spring rules
Country Boy Bowling Green rules
Top Dog Promotion rules

Here is how we want to go about this; all cars who are interested will need to prepay & pre-register their cars before the deadline of September 15th! Entry fee will be $75 per car and this is not refundable!

There must be a MINIMUM of 12 cars registered to make this happen.

Payout with the 100% payback will be 2 places paid. However, we will also take suggestions from the drivers and discuss it. If more than 15 cars are paid and pre-registered, we will bust up into 2 heats with the payout being busted up between the two heats. Both heats with be separate payouts based on the entry money for the cars in their specific heats. Heat 1 and Heat 2 will be a “One & Done” catch matches.

For Example:

16 cars/2 heats = 8 cars per heat (16 cars x $75 = $1200)
     Heat 1: 8 cars x $75 = $600 payout ($500 and $100)
     Heat 2: 8 cars x $75 = $600 payout ($500 and $100)

20 cars/2 heats = 10 cars per heat (20 cars x $75 = $1500)
     Heat 1: 10 cars x $75= $750 ($600, $100, $50)
     Heat 2: 10 cars x $75= $750 ($600, $100, $50)

Let’s hear some feedback from drivers on this or any suggestions you may want to voice!! This class has been added and all information will be more fine-tuned and drivers will be kept up to date on anything concerning this Modified Big Car class.


Any questions rule wise you can contact Clayton Hadley @ 270-634-0473. Please no phone calls after 10 pm CST!
