More Enhancements for TNT Super Series
Eighth season for popular TNT 10.90 Super Series will again offer the best payouts in the country. Enhanced points structure and record payouts coming for 2014 season….
With the 2014 season fast approaching, the Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series is announcing some exciting changes to its championship points chase as it enters its eighth year.
Points earned will still follow the NHRA/IHRA division model, but qualifying points will be doubled and there will be bonus points for perfect attendance in 2014. “With the level of competition already the best in the country, we wanted to shake things up a bit,” said Ted Barnes, TNTSS Director.
The top sixteen qualifiers will now earn twice as many points with the number one qualifier earning 32 points (up from 16) all the way to the sixteenth qualifier earning 2 points at each race.
“With some of the toughest qualified fields in sportsman drag racing already, we think you’ll see an even bigger focus on qualifying with racers trying to capture those ever-important bonus points!”
There will also be a 40 point bonus for drivers who attend all ten events in 2014. “This is obviously designed to reward those who support the series whole-heartedly,” added Ted. “And being 40 points, it is just enough to give guys a boost but not enough to take someone out of championship contention if they have to miss a race.”

2014 is the eighth season for the Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series making it one of the longest running local sportsman drag racing series. The TNTSS has always offered some of the best payouts in the industry with over 100% payback and pays $1000 to win with as little as 30 cars.
There are also many specialty awards including #1 Qualifier, First Round Loser Closest to the Index, Rookie of the Year, Carm Russo Memorial Award, Perfect Run BONUS and Driver of the Year. And don’t forget to check out the contingency postings.
The Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series will award over $15,000 is cash and prizes throughout the 2014 season – not including event payouts. Not surprising that it is the most popular sportsman series in the country for eight years running!

About the Joe’s Transmission TNT Super Series (TNTSS):
Since it began in 2006, the TNT Super Series has grown into one of the strongest, most competitive sportsman drag racing series in North America and has catapulted many competitors to success on the national and divisional stages.
The TNTSS is a self-governing organization with input from its teams. Based on NHRA’s Super Street & IHRA’s Hot Rod classes, competitors run on a 10.90 index in the 1/4 mile (7.00 in the 1/8 mile) and race for a guaranteed purse that pays back more than 100% of the racer’s entry fees. The yearend points fund provides cash & prizes to the top eight finishers and the Series Champion receives a prize package worth over $4000.00.
