Cade Dillard takes Night 1 of 'The Big Deal' at Mississippi Thunder
FOUNTAIN CITY, Wisc. — Cade Dillard captured the opening night of The Big Deal for ONUM Dirt Modifieds Thursday night at Mississippi Thunder Speedway.
XR Events, promoters of the XR Super Series, Pennsboro Speedway, and a number of growing regional events is staging this special event with a $100,001-to-WIN top prize, $2,500 to start, and over $300,000+ in total purse money.
The Big Deal is being contested by the ONUM Dirt Modifieds, a combined multi-sanction rules package that brings excitement to fans and puts the setup back in the drivers hands.
The Big Deal includes a unique format where the drivers roster is split on Thursday and Friday and racers will collect points from qualifying, heats with passing points, D to B Mains, and then culminating with a $5,000-to-WIN A Main Feature each night. The Top 16 in combined points from both nights will qualify for The Big Deal on June 1 with the rest of the field going through an Alphabet Soup format to determine the final 8 starters.
Broadcast for the event will be available at https://plus.xrevents.com or XR+ Apps on iOS, Android, Roku, FireTV, and Apple TV.
