Penske Racing Shocks will once again reward the best competitors in the country with valuable year-end awards and weekly performance bonuses throughout the season. 1. $500, 2. $400, 3. $300, 4. $200, 5. $100 to the Top-5 in National Points.

In addition, Penske Racing Shocks will award a $500 bonus to the 2026 USMTS Rookie of the Year, continuing their commitment to supporting the next generation of elite Modified drivers.

Adding even more incentive throughout the season, Penske Racing Shocks will award a $100 gift certificate to the 13th-place finisher in each USMTS A-Main event during the 2026 campaign.

This unique award continues Penske’s long-standing tradition of supporting racers throughout the field, not just those in victory lane. The weekly 13th-place award gives competitors additional opportunities to earn product support while competing on the biggest stages in dirt modified racing.

“Penske Racing Shocks has been a great marketing partner of the USMTS and gives back a great amount to our drivers,” said VP of Marketing Ryne Staley. “Their commitment to excellence mirrors the level of competition we see every night on the track.
