Over $62,000 in cash and products will be given away from the prize vault for perfect lights, dead-on runs, best winning (and best losing) packages, and more.

Advanced Product Design Wednesday, ATI Performance Products Thursday, and JEGS Performance Saturday will each pay $50,000-to-win, while Moser Engineering presents Friday’s guaranteed $500,000 main event.
