It's what they call a Calcutta, mostly used in bracket racing to give back to racers who want to run for more. It all depends on the track and how they run their bracket deal, some do it for the closest on the dial in Q2, some do it for the best R/T in a certain qualifier or they give it to the drivers who goes the farthest.

I started doing a $10 Calcutta at the Mid Atlantic .90 Races about 3 years ago, some people like it, some people choose to pass. I have given around $300 a race extra to winners and runner-ups all the way down to 3rd round losers because they were the 'Last Man Standing". It's just a little added bonus if you want to get in on it but, we don't force anyone's hand because we all know it's already expensive enough.
