According to an announcement on Jan. 27, the Triple Truck Challenge will return to the Craftsman Truck Series while the Dash 4 Cash will return to the Xfinity Series. These bonus programs will provide a select number of drivers with opportunities to lock up thousands of dollars.

The Triple Truck Challenge will feature three races in the spring. The first will be at Martinsville Speedway on Friday, March 28. The second will be at Bristol Motor Speedway on Friday, April 11. The third Triple Truck Challenge race will be at Rockingham Speedway on Friday, April 18.

If a driver wins one Triple Truck Challenge race, they earn $50,000. If they win two races, they earn $150,000. If a driver sweeps the three races, they lock up $500,000.

The drivers who declared for Truck Series points are eligible to win the bonus money. Cup and Xfinity drivers can compete in these three races but are not eligible for the money.

The Xfinity Series Dash 4 Cash schedule features five races — four that pay money. Las Vegas Motor Speedway will host the qualifier race on Saturday, March 15. The top four drivers from this race will then be eligible for the $100,000 bonus at Homestead-Miami Speedway on March 22.

The driver who finishes highest among this group will lock up $100,000 and a spot in the second round of the Dash 4 Cash, which takes place at Martinsville Speedway on March 29. The top three finishers in this race will join the Dash 4 Cash winner in the next round.

The third round of the Dash 4 Cash will be at Bristol Motor Speedway on April 12. The final round will be at Rockingham Speedway on April 19.

Any driver can compete in the Dash 4 Cash races. However, only those racing for Xfinity Series points are eligible for the $100,000 bonus. Drivers racing for Xfinity points do not have to be full-time.
