The NASCAR Nationwide Series will make it’s Iowa Speedway debut this summer. There is already more on the line than just the inaugural trophy.

The Nationwide Series season will feature a four-race “Dash for Cash” program. According to NASCAR, if any eligible driver (defined as those who race full time in the second-tier series, including Cup Series regulars, as well as drivers who run a partial Nationwide schedule but do not also race in Cup) wins at Iowa, Nashville, Kentucky, or Memphis, the driver will win a $25,000 bonus.

Whichever driver ends the season with the most points from those four races will win a $50,000 bonus.

The Nationwide Series race will be run at the Iowa Speedway on Saturday, August 1st. Tickets for the race go on sale on February 12th.
