men raced around what is now known as the Belleville High Banks. To help
celebrate the centennial anniversary of auto racing at "The World's Fastest
Half-Mile Dirt Track" in Belleville, Kan., RevHoney Energy has signed on as
title sponsor of the Belleville 100 to energize thousands of race fans for
one stunning event.
Machine and driver will be tested in a contest never before witnessed at the
Belleville High Banks or anywhere across the fruited plain with the
inaugural running of the RevHoney Energy Belleville 100 on Friday, Saturday
and Sunday, July 2-4.
"We like to go to local events like this race because we get to see and meet
so many people from this area," said RevHoney CEO Nate Brown. "Our goal is
to give people more than what they ask for in return, and that is exactly
what our plan is for this show."
Headquartered in nearby Haddam, Kan., RevHoney, Inc., is a privately-held
honey company specializing in bringing an ancient food to the modern world
with its innovative packaging and marketing. RevHoney's message is clear:

energy. RevHoney will be showcasing their new energy drink that hits stores
this June, along with the popular U-Tubes which are already for sale at
select retail locations as well as the RevHoney website at www.revhoney.com.
RevHoney Energy Drinks are the first of their kind because they are the
first to be fully powered by honey. Hence, they are naturally good for you
and your body - all while giving you energy with no artificial ingredients
A one-of-a-kind event at a one-of-a-kind venue is what race fans and
competitors alike can look forward to next year when the nation's top dirt
modified drivers converge on the famed Belleville High Banks for the
inaugural running of the RevHoney Energy Belleville 100.
A century in the making, the three-day celebration of speed and skill will
be held on Friday, Saturday and Sunday, July 2-4, at the "World's Fastest
Half-Mile Dirt Track" located in Belleville, Kan.
On Friday night, the Modifieds take on the Belleville High Banks with heat
races, "B" mains and a 40-lap "A" main carrying a $5,000 top prize and a
minimum $500 to start. The top-10 finishers will be locked into Saturday
night's thrilling finale. Saturday will feature another round of qualifying
events, followed by a 15-lap Non-Qualifiers "A" main with drivers racing for
$2,000 to win and $300 to start.
The thrilling conclusion will be the 60-lap championship "A" main with 30
cars starting three-wide on the big half-mile clay oval with $10,000
earmarked for the winner and a minimum of $1,000 for each of the starters.
The main event will see the race red-flagged on lap 30 for a 10-minue pit
stop that will take place on the front stretch in front of the grandstands.
But that's not all...the polesitter for Saturday's championship "A" main
will have the option of starting dead last in the field and go for a
whopping $100,000 paycheck if he or she can win from the 30th starting
position.
Dozens of contingency prizes will also be awarded during the event, plus a
Halfway Leader Award, Hard Charger Award, Hard Luck Award and more.
Attendees can also look forward to a gigantic fireworks display to round out
the Independence Day celebration.
Sunday will conclude the Fourth of July Holiday with a dazzling auto thrill
show and other entertainment suitable for a 100-year celebration of auto
racing, including the Pig 100 - a not-so-light-hearted special event
featuring real live pigs and a shot at $500 for one lucky participant.
The Sunday date is also being held in reserve as a rain date for Friday or
Saturday.
