Polewarczyk\u2019s historic win in the inaugural event in 2013 earned him $25,000.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Last year Polewarczyk bested Brian Hoar by just one point by winning the first two segments and taking second in the third segment to pocket the big paycheck. This season Polewarczyk sits atop the ACT standings with four events completed to date. He has to be one of the early favorites for the second running of the ACT International event.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>\u201cLast year\u2019s win ranks right up there with the Milk Bowl, and the Invitational (at NHMS). It\u2019s a huge race and last year being the inaugural made it even bigger,\u201d said Polewarczyk. When asked about his confidence heading into the event Polewarczyk commented, \u201cWe\u2019re pretty confident. We had a good car at the 100-lapper at Airborne and I like the style of the segments with the inversions. We\u2019ve had a lot of practice working through traffic and coming through the field so far this season.\u201d In the first four events this season, Polewarczyk\u2019s average starting position is 14 with his average finish position at 2.75.<\/p>\n<p><!--more--><\/p>\n<p>The winner\u2019s share for this season is $25,000 plus $50 for each lap lead, and a $1,000 bonus for the Bond ACT Invitational qualifier. The purse guarantees a minimum of $1,000 for all 36 qualifiers for the three segment event, 200 lap main event.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Polewarczyk\u2019s entry arrived to the ACT office just minutes after it was released.
