BATESVILLE, Ark. – Defending Manufacturers’ Cup champion Larry Shaw Race Cars returns this season as title sponsor of IMCA’s Western Region for Modifieds.
The Batesville, Ark., chassis builder again provides a portion of the $6,000 point fund to be paid to top 10 drivers in official standings for that region, which includes tracks in Arizona, California, western Colorado, Idaho, Montana, Nevada, northern New Mexico, Oregon, Utah and Wyoming.
The champion earns $2,500, with $1,250 for second, $625 for third, $325 for fourth and $300 for fifth. Sixth through 10th place finishers each receive $200. Drivers in the Western Region are required to display two Larry Shaw Racing decals on their race car to be eligible for point fund shares.
Shaw has been an IMCA sponsor for 11 seasons and title sponsor of the Western Region since 2012.
“We have to thank all our customers,” said owner Larry Shaw. “They’ve been great to us for a lot of years.”
In addition to the national IMCA Manufacturers’ Cup crown, Shaw also had the high point total among top 10 finishing cars in the Western region last year.

“It was great to see Larry Shaw Race Cars reign supreme in our Manufacturers’ Cup contest in 2017. Larry and his family have been long-standing supporters of IMCA racing and hosting them at our national awards banquet was a true pleasure,” said IMCA Marketing Director Kevin Yoder. “We have already seen some outstanding racing in our Larry Shaw Western Region in 2018 and look forward to an exciting season.”
