Extra cash in the pockets is always a great thing for racers, and for the throngs of competitors in the popular X275 category, additional opportunities to cash in on their on-track success with Team Z Motorsports’ new contingency offering at select X275 heads-up events.
Michigan-based Team Z Motorsports, one of the industry’s leading suppliers of suspension kits and components for hardcore street and drag racing Ford Mustang’s and one of the primo chassis shops in the business, announced last week that it would begin offering contingency awards at selected X275 drag racing events around the series’ Eastern United States hotbed. Team Z will offer the awards for racers in the popular 275 radial-clad category that run their popular K-members or rear suspension kits who win or runner-up and display the Team Z Motorsports decal on their race car. Winners will earn $100 and the runners-up will score $50.
