Press Release 10-30-09 Update:

Jerry Korinek Director of Competition-USSA  

The latest version of our Pro-Star payout for next season is posted. Please review and be aware of the following.
(Under Links Section)

Pro Star money will be banked till seasons end. You must attend all events in order to qualify for Pro Star payoff. Exception to this is, anyone hurt racing at a USSA event and their injury prohibits them from continuing the season will be paid all earned funds.
We wish to thank Josh Wilson and Mark Powers who again gathered Pro Star funding from our various class sponsors. Additional funding that is required will come from the USSA treasury as part of our benefits to driver members.
You will notice on the Pro Star payoff sheet that we also have listed the classes ran at our events and the method we use to calculate payoff. Many members do not realize how this is done and this chart will assist them in understanding the payoff procedure.
We will again pay regular payback from events the following event during drivers meeting. We must have your social security number on file or we will hold all checks until you comply by supplying your number. You can contact either Lisa or myself to ensure this is done.
Semi Pro Champ drivers, special note, your class has been elevated from a 70% payback class to a 100% payback class effective this season. While this will offer the association less operating funds, it is felt by the board that the participation level and quality of competition offered by the drivers in this class earned the 100% payback. Congratulations Semi Pro Champ drivers!
I have noticed the forum has been unusually slow this season, while I do get a number of phone calls for tech determinations. If at all possible please check the forum often and post your questions there. Of course, if you feel your question will alleviate any technical advantage you may have, I will always take questions by phone or e mail on a confidential basis. Please review the forum to see the boards recent clarification on questions on 600 Stock Fan Sprint and Junior II Sprint requirements.

 

Press Release 9-9-09

USSA Director of Competition
Jerry Korinek

USSA is pleased to announce that effective our 2010 season; USSA will offer all Junior classes on both days of competition.
For many seasons parents of Junior’s have asked for the availability of more lap time for young competitors, and USSA sees this effort as an answer to that request. During both Saturday and Sunday events USSA will offer Junior Novice, Junior I Sprint, Junior II Sprint, F-500 Junior I and F-500 Junior II at all events. While the racers will be awarded medallions for both days racing efforts, Sunday’s events will be the point garnering days, for the end of season high points Champion in each class.
The two day offering will fill many requests for extra lap time, but to alleviate issues where other activities or travel funding may restrict a competitor from being at an event for both days; points for season end are only awarded on Sundays events.
High point trophies at season end will be awarded in Junior I Sprint, Junior II Sprint, F-500 Junior I, and F-500 Junior II. Trophies for Junior I Sprint and F-500 Junior I will be awarded by Schaus Roofing and Mechanical Contractors, while Junior II Sprint and F-500 Junior II will be presented by North East Wisconsin Toro Dealers.
USSA feels this effort will encourage Junior’s to develop their skills and move up the ranks to join the field of USSA’s present Pro drivers.
