Record points fund for Malvern tours

Joe Kosiski’s Malvern Bank-sponsored East and West Series schedules announced Monday are highlighted by 10 dual-series events and a series-record $125,100 in combined points fund money. | East schedule | West schedule

While each tour carries a $33,600 points fund with $8,000 apiece going to champions, the Gold Dual Series between both tours pays $15,000 to the champion from a $57,900 points fund. The dual series points runner-up receives $10,000 with $7,000 to third, $5,000 for fourth and $4,000 for fifth.

While most combination events will offer a $5,000 top prize, July 15’s fourth annual Rallen Zeitner Memorial at Shelby County Speedway in Harlan, Iowa, pays a season-high $10,000. Among other dual events, Knoxville (Iowa) Raceway hosts a $4,900-to-win invitational event for East and West regulars Sept, 19 on the undercard of the Lucas Oil Late Model Knoxville Nationals.

In addition to the co-sanctioned events, the East Series will contest 10 standalone races, highlighted by its June 4 debut at Mississippi Thunder Speedway, a $3,000-to-win opener that precedes June 5-6 combination events at the Fountain City, Wis., oval. The East tour also plots its debut at Bloomfield (Iowa) Speedway on May 22, to go along with a dual-sanctioned Cornhusker State doubleheader at Deshler’s Thayer County Speedway and Norfolk’s Off Road Speedway on Aug. 7-8.

The West Series slate offers nine standalone events, most paying $3,000-to-win, highlighted by Aug. 14’s Bill Kirk Memorial at Park Jefferson (S.D.) Speedway, featuring a $5,086 winner’s purse. The West tour also returns to Denison, Iowa’s Highway 39 Speedway on July 31, the first series race at the 3/8-mile oval since July 26, 2019, a race won by recent Dirt Late Model Hall of Fame inductee Kyle Berck.

Both tours conclude with a combination event at Lakeside Speedway in Kansas City, Kan., where three champions will be crowned.
