This is only a portion of the WoO point fund that’s missing the exclusivity bonus. For example Gravel got $350k for winning the points last year.

Seems like a good track for winged sprints. Didn’t rubber up, stayed 2 grooved for the whole race.

Brady was quite good this year at the Nationals. No fluke effort, he was a legit fast car. I wonder if this will spring board him into full time wings in the future.
