PROGRAM INFORMATION
Women In Motorsports North America (WIMNA) teams up with Busch Light to launch the 2023 Contingency Fund Program, a points system that provides more opportunities for women drivers to win this race season. In an effort to support women currently pursuing careers in motorsports, and to diversify the sport for future generations of drivers, WIMNA has created this bespoke point system that rewards women drivers aged 21 or older by May 31, 2023, who hold a valid NASCAR license from an eligible NASCAR-sanctioned series, with a total contingency fund of $200,000 that powers them forward.
