“This is something that we enjoy doing every year for the NAPA SK 5k race and it’s a great way to make the heat races a little more exciting,” said John Rufrano.  “The bonus money gives drivers something extra to shoot for and even though it might not be much, a little something is better than nothing at all and we hope this helps drivers out.”

Going into the 9th Annual NAPA SK 5k, there have been 9 different feature winners through the first 13 races of the season.  David Arute and Stephen Kopcik are the only drivers with more than 1 victory to their names and they each have 3 wins thus far.  Single event feature winners this season include leading Rookie of the Year candidate Anthony Bello, Cory DiMatteo, Tyler Hines, Bryan Narducci, Todd Owen, Keith Rocco, and Ronnie Williams.
