Gorsuch Performance Solutions Pole Award Expanded for 2023 WWS
Mega Event Set for January 7, 8, 11, 13, 14, & 15, 2023 at FK Rod Ends Vado Speedway Park
VADO, N.M. (December 5, 2022) — Gorsuch Performance Solutions is set to continue its sponsorship of the nightly Super Late Model Pole Award for the fourth straight year at the Rio Grande Waste Services Wild West Shootout presented by O’Reilly Auto Parts on Jan. 7-15 at FK Rod Ends Vado Speedway Park.
However, the Dirt Track Bank Super Late Model driver who pulls the pole position for each night’s feature during the Schaeffer Oil Redraw will receive a richer prize in 2023. In past years the lucky recipient received a $100 bonus, but new for the upcoming edition of the mega miniseries, the driver who draws the pole position will receive a Gorsuch Performance Solutions Max Air 6-Blade Fan, valued at $209.
“When Travis (Gorsuch) told me that he wanted to change up the prize for the Gorsuch Performance Solutions Pole Award for 2023 I was all ears, and when he told me that he wanted to give away one of their state-of-the-art fans each night, I absolutely loved the idea. This more than doubles the nightly value of a Super Late Model driver drawing the pole position for the feature,� noted Event General Manager, Ben Shelton. “Gorsuch Performance Solutions is yet another example of a company, who goes out of their way to support our miniseries each year, and I’m very grateful for their support.�
