Racing Contingency Program
January 31, 2007 - The Honda Riders Club of America (HRCA) is posting 10
million dollars in racing contingency awards for 2007. The dash-for-cash

ATV
riders at nearly 700 events across the country representing all the
major
racing disciplines, including AMA-sanctioned Supercross, motocross,
enduro,
dirt track, Supermoto, roadracing, drag racing and ATV.
"The HRCA Contingency Program represents a significant investment
in the
future of racing in America," said HRCA Manager Bill Savino.
"Many of
todays top Honda athletes rose through the ranks of their sport with the
backing of Honda's contingency program and we're proud to support the
many
competitors who receive our assistance today."
Supercross tops the payout charts with Pro racers receiving $50,000 for
a
single race win, and Lites Pro racers can earn $25,000 per win. Of
special
note, this year Honda is offering a $25,000 Championship bonus for both
the
AMA GNCC and the AMA GNCC ATV XC1Pro class Series Champions. HRCA will
be

Nationals.
"Honda is also proud to recognize our sponsor support from

Savino. "Their debit card program allows instant access to Red
