TIRE DISTRIBUTION PLAN FOR NASCAR FEATHERLITE MODIFIED SERIES
Hoosier Tire Company has posted award tires for all Events in 2004, which include 50 tires to be distributed to the eligible NASCAR Featherlite Modified Series car owners, per Event, as follows:
Two (2) tires will be awarded to each of the 20 highest car owners in the current 2004 NASCAR Featherlite Modified Series Championship point standings who makes a good faith attempt to compete in the Event.
Separately, one (1) tire will be awarded to the 10 highest finishing car owners from the last completed NASCAR Featherlite Modified Series Event, if the owner makes a good faith attempt to compete in the current Event. NASCAR in its sole discretion may determine what constitutes a good faith attempt to compete. If any of the of the 50 tires remain after the conditions stipulated above are met, then one (1) tire will be awarded to the next highest car owner in the current 2004 NASCAR Featherlite Modified Series standings, then to the next highest owner in the current 2004 standings, and so on, until all posted tires have been awarded. This award criteria pertains to the remaining Events for the 2004 NASCAR Featherlite Modified Series schedule only.
Under any circumstance the maximum distribution to any one (1) car owner for any NASCAR Featherlite Modified Series Event will be three (3) tires per Event.
If any of the tires remain after all of the conditions stipulated have been met, then the remaining tires may be distributed at NASCAR’s discretion and/or distributed at another Event during the 2004 schedule (EIRI).
