The exciting finish of the US Cellular 250 at Iowa Speedway was even sweeter for winner Brad Keselowski - $75,000 sweeter – thanks to Nationwide Insurance’s Dash 4 Cash bonus.
Joey Logano won the first two Dash 4 Cash races at Nashville Superspeedway and Kentucky Speedway. Logano is not running a full schedule in the series this year and is ineligible to win the bonus. By winning at Kentucky, Logano made sure the bonus would be worth $75,000 for the race at Iowa Speedway.
“Congratulations to Brad Keselowski,” said Jennifer Hanley, Senior Vice President of Marketing Services for Nationwide Insurance. “NASCAR Nationwide Series drivers and teams are among the best in the world and we’re proud to present him with a $75,000 bonus tonight.”

Flooding Leaves Mess In East Memphis Complex
But last night, her car took a ride she wasn't expecting. "It was floating in the water, it was full of water."
Flooding from a storm Tuesday night caused her car to float from its parking spot to a curb feet away. It was next to a pile of cars that landed on top of each other.
"I came outside and my car was gone. I just thought it was stolen and I looked and it was in that pile over there," said resident Mark Forbes.
Flood lines on the cars' rear view mirrors illustrated how high the water got, and it wasn't just outside. In some apartments, there was about a foot of water.
Residents say it all happened in about 15 minutes. They also tell us this is not the first time this part of the Poplar Place Apartments has flooded.
Residents are not only trying to figure out what's next, but how to prevent this from happening again.
"Why does my insurance have to be affected for something that could have been prevented," added White- Murrell.
During the storm last night, some of them got out and removed debris from drains to stop the flooding. The City of Memphis says the drain is management's responsibility to maintain.
The property owner, GMH Capital Partners, told us on the phone this was "an act of god" and they've only owned the property for a year and a half. GMH Capital Partners say they will help the residents get back to normal.
