The MBNA Mid-Race Leader Award is worth $10,000 to the leader of a race’s halfway point (among teams participating in the MBNA contingency award program). MBNA also pays a $5,000 bonus if the halfway-point leader goes on to win the race. If the bonus isn’t collected, the $5,000 rolls over to the next event. Here’s where we are: the MBNA bonus now stacks up to $50,000. The last time it was collected was at Daytona in July when #15-Michael Waltrip won the Pepsi 400 and an extra $5,000.(NASCAR PR), see the list of all the winners of the award and bonus’ above.(9-4-2003)
