Since Jack Dover has made a habit of winning lately, the Nebraska 360 Sprints and I-80 Speedway have decided they needed to put a bounty on the "the Gasman." So on Friday, June 26 at the Alphabet soup Race, if a driver can beat FDover in the Nebraska 360 Sprint feature they can pick up a $1,000 bonus. that's in addition to a purse that pays $1,500 to win and $500 JUST TO START the feature.

Additionally, Dover can start no better than eighth in the feature, if he make the redraw he automatically received the eight pill. In addition to the great purse, as always there will be a $200 Speedway Motors card to the winner, a $300 podium draw sponsored by ESI, a $200 Hard Charger Award sponsored by Selct Auto Body plus other contingencies. The Gas Man will receive a $250 bonus for accepting the challenge.

If Jack wins, he should get the $1000 bonus. Right??

So you are saying they should just make it $2500 to win.

A sprint car driver with a Ford engine and bounty on him as well.  He must have some awfully broard sholders.

Luna's Ford engine style that won 2 WoO titles and 3 
Kings Royals before a weight rule against the best EVER
in their prime and now DOMINATES super dirt late model
racing is no longer allowed/wanted in a WoO sprint
car.... Was Luna a miracle worker?

Or deeper pockets than the average joe in Nebraska Throw a Ford 410 in that car and race the NSL where other teams have equal to greater budgets than that team. Or race Knoxville 360s weekly.... I bet Hendersons Chevy walks all over that thing.

Just like the good ole days..... bounty on Schatz soon?

An idea.... why don't you offer a bonus to best finish by a Ford?

I'm a Ford fan too but your soapbox is way too predictable & getting old

It is $2500 to win. For everyone but Jack!

Jack would do just fine camping at Knoxville.  Tickles me how everyone stands around talking about how his heads are those far superior peices that are ruining 360 racing as he drives to victory lane week after week.  Monkey see monkey do as long at its a small block chevy.  If not then its an unfair advantage, a loop hole in the rule book, a promoter trying too hard to get a few fans in the stands, too expensive, too heavy, too hard to get parts..................................................

Yup, it is monkey see monkey do. And if Ford motors were better a lot of teams would be running them. There is more to winning than just a motor. Set ups, shocks and driver have a lot to do with it. It is seldom a case of best motor wins. By A main time the tracks are slicked over and you don't need nor can you use a lot of horsepower.

if Mark Burch wasn't so busy off track, he would bring the 1m out and collect the bounty, no doubt! Maybe Billy Alley can do it.

You gotta give Dover credit too for his very fine season.
