Matt Kenseth will have another shot at a record bonus payment next Sunday in the Brickyard 400.
It's been 51 races since a Winston Cup points leader won a race and took home the bonus - which increases by $10,000 each time it goes unclaimed. It's payable to the leader if he wins or to any other driver who moves to the top of the standings with a victory.

Kenseth is the only driver eligible because second-place Dale Earnhardt Jr. is 232 points behind and cannot make up the spread at Indianapolis.

Kenseth would get $210,000. Bobby Labonte set the record for a bonus payoff when he got $190,000 three years ago in the Brickyard 400.
 
Sounds to me like that bonus is overdue for a payout this weekend. :)
 
I doubt he gets it this weekend, but I see it happening before the end of the year.
 
Like to see him win it. Poor old Matt needs the money. :lol:
 
No kidding he needs the $$$, he has to buy a new car for the Miller Lite Natl's at Madison Intl Speedway in August. He wrecked the other one at Slinger last week. :D
