The popular Dash 4 Cash returns to the NASCAR Xfinity Series in 2018 with full-time series drivers competing for a $100,000 top prize at each of the program’s four events.
In addition to the Bristol Motor Speedway, Richmond Raceway and Dover International Speedway races, Dash 4 Cash will also be available and in play for the first time at the always exciting Talladega Superspeedway.
The top four finishing full-time drivers in this Saturday’s “My Bariatrics Solutions 300” (April 7, 3 p.m. ET on FOX, PRN and SiriusXM) at Texas Motor Speedway will qualify for the first round of the Dash 4 Cash at Bristol next week. The highest finisher of the four at “The Last Great Colosseum” will earn the big $100,000 check.
The Dash 4 Cash winner and the top three full-time NASCAR Xfinity Series drivers at the end of the race at Bristol, for a total of four contenders, will go on to race for the money at Richmond Raceway the following week and so forth, for the duration of the four-race program.
Last year, Justin Allgaier won two of the $100,000 bonuses while Daniel Hemric and William Byron each collected a $100,000 check in the incentive program.
And for the first time, Comcast will donate bonus money in honor of each Dash 4 Cash weekly winner to support the local community at the four race venues participating in the program.
In addition to the $100,000 prize money for the Dash 4 Cash winner, Comcast will donate a total of $40,000 to local organizations on behalf of the company’s Internet Essentials program.
The program is the largest in the United States in connecting low-income households online – more than 4 million households have benefitted since 2011.
