Hinnershitz Legacy Honored Friday At Williams Grove

4/13/25

Mechanicsburg – Friday’s sprint car show at Williams Grove Speedway will honor its original winner. He was the first. He had one of the most recognizable names in motorsports history dating back to the 1930s.

On tap at Williams Grove on Friday will be the annual Tommy Hinnershitz Memorial Spring Classic, honoring the late, great racer from Oley that holds the distinction of winning the first ever race held at the brand new Williams Grove Speedway back on Sunday, May 21, 1939.

Hinnershitz won the race in what was called a “hard and heady” event to best the famed Joie Chitwood.

Hinnershitz’s death in 1999 left behind an auto-racing legacy worthy of note by any standards.

During his 30-year career spanning 1930-1960, “The Fying Dutchman,” as he was known, amassed seven AAA/USAC Eastern Big Car Championships, taking titles in 1949, 1950, 1951, 1952, 1955, 1956 and in 1959.

He had garnered 103 total AAA/USAC feature wins with 19 taking place at Williams Grove.

Hinnershitz set 43 AAA track records during his tenure and would compete in three Indianapolis 500s.At the time of his death, the 87-year old was ranked second behind Steve Kinser on the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame’s Top Sprint Car Drivers of All Time list.

Back in 1939, when Hinnershitz passed Chitwood for the lead in that maiden race at Williams Grove, the duel was billed as “one of the most thrilling bits of driving ever witnessed on a Pennsylvania speedway.”

It was said that when Hinnershitz passed Chitwood, “the Big Chief was met with acclaim from the crowd.”

And Williams Grove will bestow even more worthy acclaim in the Big Chief’s honor this Friday night.

Adult general admission for the April 18 racing program is set at $25 with students ages 13-20 admitted for just $10.

Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

MACRI CAPTURES FEATURE WIN; Nash Ely Scores First Career 358 Sprint Car Victory

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, April 12 (6PM) 410 Sprints and USAC East Coast Wingless Sprints

Saturday, April 19 (6PM) 21ST ANNUAL WELDON STERNER MEMORIAL: 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints

Saturday, April 26 (6PM) 410 Sprints and Limited Late Models

Abbottstown, PA (April 5, 2025) – It was an action-packed night at Lincoln Speedway on Saturday, April 5, with lead changes, close racing, and a red flag that shook up the 410 sprint car feature.

The 30-lap A-Main started with JJ Loss and Cole Knopp going wheel-to-wheel into turn 1, but it was Loss who powered out of turn 2 to claim the early lead. Dallas Schott made quick work of the field, moving into third and sneaking by Knopp at the line for second just before Knopp spun in turn 2, bringing out the caution. Dylan Norris was also sent to the rear after a 360 spin during the same sequence.

Anthony Macri moved into third early on, while Brandon and Freddie Rahmer battled for fifth. Loss started to stretch his lead and approached lapped traffic on lap 8, with Schott and Macri giving chase. On lap 11, Loss jumped the cushion in turns 1 and 2, opening the door for Schott to take over the top spot.

Macri wasn’t far behind and began closing the gap on Loss for second, eventually taking the position out of turn 4 on lap 15. Freddie Rahmer continued to pressure Brandon for a top-five spot as the laps clicked off.

With clean air ahead, Schott built a comfortable lead, but as he neared lapped traffic, Macri began to reel him in. The intensity picked up quickly, and with traffic looming, Macri took a shot at the lead as Schott tapped the wall in turn 4. The two swapped sliders as they worked around a lapped car, until contact on the backstretch sent Schott flipping end over end, bringing out the red flag on lap 23.

Macri inherited the lead for the restart with JJ Loss, Kyle Moody, Brandon Rahmer, and Freddie Rahmer rounding out the top five. Troy Wagaman Jr. entered the fray late, sliding under Freddie for fifth. In a thrilling three-wide battle at the line, Wagaman claimed fourth, with Freddie in fifth and Brandon falling to sixth.

Moody began closing in on Loss for second, while Freddie and Wagaman renewed their battle in the closing laps. Freddie regained the fourth spot with just one lap remaining.

Macri took the checkered flag by 1.740 seconds over Loss. Moody was third and Freddie Rahmer crossed the line fourth. Wagaman completed the top five.

Nash Ely Scores First Career 358 Sprint Car Victory

The 358 sprint car feature at Lincoln Speedway on Saturday night saw a new face in Victory Lane, as Nash Ely picked up his first career win in the division with a strong performance at the front of the field.

The initial start was intense, with Jayden Wolf, Cody Fletcher, and Nash Ely nearly three-wide going into turn 1. But the action quickly reset after Fletcher did a 360 spin in turn 4, forcing a complete restart and sending him to the rear.

The restart moved Ely to the front row, and he took full advantage—grabbing the early lead with Wolf settling into second and Andy Best running third. Steve Owings and Austin Reed battled for fourth, with Owings eventually taking control of the position.

Ely encountered lapped traffic by lap 7, allowing the field to close the gap. Wolf tagged the wall in turn 4, giving up second to Best, who then started reeling in the race leader. However, Ely navigated traffic to put some breathing room between himself and Best with seven laps to go.

The race’s second caution came on lap 16 when Brian Wolf Jr. came to a stop on the frontstretch. That set up a four-lap dash to the finish with Ely leading Best, Owings, Wolf, and Reed.

On the restart, Owings looked to the outside of Best for second but couldn’t complete the pass. Two laps later, Best slid high in turn 2, opening the door for Owings to slip into the runner-up spot. Best stayed close and challenged in the final laps, but Owings held firm.

At the checkered flag, it was Nash Ely taking the win and celebrating a milestone moment in his young racing career. Steve Owings crossed the line second and Andy Best was third. Jayden Wolf finished fourth and Austin Reed completed the top five.

Next Saturday, April 12, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the 410 Sprints and USAC East Coast Wingless Sprint Cars. Racing is scheduled for 6PM with pit gates opening at 3:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 4PM.

Mechanicsburg – Rains struck mid-feature on Friday night at Williams Grove Speedway, again waylaying the 2025 season opener.

The Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprints were five laps into their 25-lap opening night main event when showers hit the track, forcing cars into the pit area.

An earlier shower had delayed action between the heats and consolation races but action did resume after a 30-minute delay.

However the second batch of rains halted action for the night with Fawn Grove’s Matt Campbell leading the way over defending opening day winner Anthony Macri in the main event.

The remaining 20 laps of the 410 sprint car main will now be spun off next Friday, April 11 as part of the Spring Sprint Special also including 305 sprints and wingless super sportsman to go along with a full program of 410 sprint car racing.

The 358 sprint feature from April 4 will be made-up on Friday, April 25 when the division next returns to the track.

Twin fields of 29 cars entered competition on April 4.

Heat winners in 358 sprint action were Andy Best, Jacob Galloway and Jude Siegel with Cole Young taking the consolation race.

Winners in 410 sprint qualifying action were Ryan Taylor, Cameron Smith and Matt Campbell while Preston Lattomus scored the consolation.

CAMPBELL CLAIMS VICTORY IN THRILLING 30-LAP FEATURE AT LINCOLN SPEEDWAY; Wilbur Dominates Season Opener for Wingless Super Sportsman

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, April 5 (6PM) 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints

Saturday, April 12 (6PM) 410 Sprints and USAC East Coast Wingless Sprints

Saturday, April 19 (6PM) 21ST ANNUAL WELDON STERNER MEMORIAL: 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints

Abbottstown, PA (March 29, 2025) – Lincoln Speedway roared to life on Saturday night as an action-packed 30-lap feature unfolded before a great crowd on a beautiful spring evening. With Glenndon Forsythe and Tim Glatfelter leading the field to the green, the stage was set for an exciting showdown at the famed Pennsylvania oval.

Glatfelter got the early jump, leading the field into turn one ahead of Forsythe and Preston Lattomus. As the battle for position unfolded, Dylan Norris worked his way past Lattomus for third, with Matt Campbell following closely to take over fourth. Campbell wasted little time challenging Norris, going wheel to wheel on lap five before securing the third spot.

Lapped traffic loomed just a lap later, and Campbell capitalized on the congestion, moving into second. The race’s first caution flew on lap seven when Hayden Miller made contact with the wall in turn two. The restart saw Glatfelter continue to fend off Campbell’s advances, but Campbell was relentless, throwing a slider to take the lead on lap nine.

The action came to a halt on lap ten when Domenic Melair all but flipped in turns three and four, bringing out the red flag. Once racing resumed, Campbell pulled away while Aaron Bollinger worked his way past Glatfelter for third on lap 14. At the halfway mark, Campbell’s lead stretched to over a second as he navigated lapped traffic.

Another caution on lap 17 for a spin involving Dallas Schott and Joey Amantea erased Campbell’s advantage, but he once again pulled away on the restart. The battle for second intensified as Bollinger and Freddie Rahmer exchanged slide jobs, allowing Campbell to extend his lead. Troy Wagaman also made his presence known, surging into the top five and quickly picking off positions.

The yellow flag flew once more on lap 20 when Amantea spun in turn two. Campbell continued to hold command at the front, even after doing a wheelie on the backstretch as Bollinger closed the gap. Rahmer briefly took second with a slider in turn two, but Bollinger battled back, keeping the race for the runner-up spot alive.

With five laps to go, Campbell worked through lapped traffic flawlessly, sealing the victory in dominant fashion. Aaron Bollinger held on for second, while Freddie Rahmer, Troy Wagaman, and Brandon Rahmer rounded out the top five. Cameron Smith was the hard charger after driving from his 21st starting spot to finish sixth.

Wilbur Dominates Season Opener for Wingless Super Sportsman

The Wingless Super Sportsman kicked off their season at Lincoln Speedway on Saturday night with an exciting 20-lap feature. Veteran racer Steve Wilbur started on the pole and wasted no time asserting his dominance, leading the field into turn one and quickly pulling away.

Brett Perigo moved into second early, but Billy Brian Jr. had other plans, slipping under Perigo coming out of turn two to take the runner-up position. As the field settled in, Trent Yoder and Tony Jackson worked their way forward, battling for top-five spots. Yoder put pressure on Perigo for third, and the two waged a wheel-to-wheel battle for position. Meanwhile, Jackson made a bold move, passing two cars in one lap to break into the top five.

The first caution of the race flew on lap nine when Stan Wanner and Chad Thomas tangled in turn one, erasing Wilbur’s impressive 3.673-second lead. On the restart, Yoder continued to hound Perigo, while Jackson executed a powerful move in turns one and two to jump from fifth to third.

With five laps to go, Wilbur’s lead had grown back to 2.574 seconds, but Jackson wasn’t done yet—he turned up the pressure on Brian for second. Another caution slowed the field on lap 16 when Brandon Shearer spun in turn two, setting up a late-race shootout.

Brian had a strong restart, and Yoder briefly got by Jackson for third before Jackson battled back to reclaim the spot. Wilbur remained untouchable out front, cruising to victory as Billy Brian Jr., Tony Jackson, Trent Yoder, and Cliff Brian Jr. rounded out the top five.

Brian with a better restart this time – Yoder by Jackson on the restart but Jackson battled back to retake third

Next Saturday, April 5, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints. Racing is scheduled for 6PM with pit gates opening at 3:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 4PM.

Ryan Smith Gets Back to Victory Lane, Eckert Goes Back-to-Back, Hardy Outlasts Snook in LLMs

March 29, 2025 -- It had been 11 years since Ryan Smith had parked in victory lane at Port Royal Speedway for his first career win. On Saturday afternoon, he was able to get back there for the 2nd time in his career behind the Kreitz racing 69K and did so in comfortable fashion for the $5,000 payday.

Ricky Peterson Jr. would start alongside Lucas Wolfe to take the opening green flag of the 25 lap A-main event with Peterson getting out in front early. Within the opening lap, Smith would charge from his 6th place starting spot and take the 3rd spot away from Jeff Halligan while also challenging Wolfe for 2nd.

Smith would catch Peterson over the next 4 laps and with a good drive into the low side of turn 1, Smith would get by Ricky Peterson Jr for the lead and wouldn't look back.

The A-main would remain green for the remainder of the race and Smith would finish with a margin of victory over 4 seconds.

"To be honest with you I didn't know how to get here," joked Smith in victory lane referencing how long it's been since he had won at Port Royal Speedway.

Chase Deitz would be the Ramsey's Car Wash hard charging coming from the 10th starting spot to finish 2nd and Justin Whittall would round out the podium in 3rd.

In Penske Racing Shocks super late model competition, Rick Eckert was able to get back to victory lane in back to back weeks at Port Royal Speedway.

Drake Troutman would take the early race lead but after a pair of cautions over the opening 3 laps of the race, Eckert was able to utilize an outside starting lane on restart to get by both Colton Flinner and Troutman to take the race lead and not look back.

Troutman would run in 2nd for the majority of the race with Flinner close in tow, when contact with a lapped car nearly took the Hyndman, PA driver out of contention. The driver of the 22* was able to reel the car back under his control and maintain speed and would hold on to finish in 3rd with Flinner able to capitalize and finish in 2nd.

For the Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models, Kyle Hardy would lead from wire to wire and pick up the opening race win of the season for the division.

Lane Snook and Ryan Zook would round out the top 3.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action on Saturday April 5th with Weikert's Livestock 410 sprint cars, Penns Valley Meat Market 305 sprint cars and Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models. Racing is scheduled to start at 6PM.

Light to moderate rains hit the oval just as gates opened and the sprint cars and super sportsman began entering the pits.

The decision to cancel the event was made just after 6 pm when it became clear that that the rainfall would persist for at least another hour.

The 2025 season opening event for the 410 and 358 sprint cars will now be next Friday, April 4 when it will be Fast Tees Night.

Hundreds of Fast Tees tote bags will be given out as fans enter the general admission gates with select bags including a $10 gift certificate to Williams Grove Speedway.

As an advance ticket holder, you may enter the grandstands one-half hour prior to general admission tickets going on sale providing you with your choice of seating.

On Tuesday night, May 20 expect a night of fun, interaction and entertainment starting with the option to do the Inside/Out Promotion where race fans may watch warm-ups from inside the fourth turn, or sign up to do a pre-race Pit Tour and also expect a first class Fan Fest with many of the High Limit stars to take place at the Drivers Merchandise Midway just outside the front gate. Opening ceremonies will feature Eric Haney performing the National Anthem.

General admission tickets will go on sale at 5:00 PM and the main gate will open at that time. Warm-ups and time trials will begin at 7PM with the show opening set for 7:30 PM. Also on the program will be the Alpine Building Supply Vintage Cars competing in two 12 lap feature events. In the event of rain, Wednesday night, May 21 will be the rain date with a starting time of 7:30 PM.

The idea of a $2,000 bonus for a Pennsylvania driver to win the Kubota High Limit event was so well received in 2024 that Alpine Building Supply of Schuylkill Haven, PA will sponsor the award on Tuesday night, May 20. The bonus should lure some interest for other local sprint car drivers to be on hand. For a Pennsylvania driver, the win would be worth $22,000 and the race will pay $1,500 just to take the green flag in the feature event.

Defending Grandview High Limit winners Brent Marks and Rico Aberu will be in the field joined by five time World of Outlaw Champion Brad Sweet of Grass Valley, CA along with Tanner Thorson of Minden, NV, Kasey Kahne from Enumclaw, WA, Tyler Courtney Indianapolis, IN, Aaron Reutzel of Clute, TX, Daison Pursley of Loctus Grove, OK, Spencer Bayston of Lebanon, IN, Justin Peck from San Diego, CA and two Rookie drivers Danny Sams III of Elkhart, IN and Sye Lynch of Apollo, PA will be making their start with the High Limit Sprints in 2025. Of course, many local drivers will be on hand shooting for $22,000 payday to include Danny Dietrich and Freddie Rahmer.

Alpine Building Supply will post a $2,000 bonus for a first-time Thunder Modified feature winner. $5,000 to win 30 laps for your first Thunder win is a treat, previously earned by Alex Yankowski and Eric Kormann who pulled off the accomplishment in 2024 of cashing in on the Alpine Building Supply Bonus.

Watch for Alpine Building Supply to have a strong presence at all Thunder on the Hill events in the coming season.

POINT FUND GROWS TO $20,000 FULLY GUARANTEED FOR 10 RACE 410 SPRINT CAR SERIES.

YORK HAVEN, Pa.: BAPS Motor Speedway General Manager Kolten Gouse had a list of things he wanted to focus on during the offseason.
Improvements to the facility were obvious near the top. But Gouse also wanted to bolster the point fund for an expanding 410 Sprint Car schedule after a successful 2024 campaign for the division.
Mission accomplished.

A year ago, the RV 4-Wheel Drive and Performance Automotive 410 Sprint Car point fund paid out $17,000. The total has ballooned to $20,000 this year, a 17% percent increase over last season thanks to all the sponsors stepping up in 2025 including RV-4 Wheel Drive & Performance Automotive, Denk Electric, Emory Transmission and Specialty Rigging Company.

“The 410 Sprint Car shows did really well last year,” Gouse said. “The car counts were the best they’ve been since we had the speedway, and we appreciate the support of the teams.

“Thanks to our sponsors, we were able to put together a good point fund for the races last year. Seeing the support we got; we wanted to up that going into this year and make it bigger and better for our teams.”

Danny Dietrich earned $5,000 last year for securing the championship. It will pay the same to win the title in 2025, but Gouse and the management team have spread more money down through the order.

In fact, the $3,000 is being distributed from fourth to 10th in the order. Fourth increased by $300 over last year, with fifth and sixth bumping up $350 and $400, respectively. Seventh through 10th were increased by $500.

“Putting together the point fund for this year, we thought it was important to take care of the teams down through the order,” Gouse said. “The top guys are winning more money on a race-by-race basis, but for the sport to thrive, you need to give back to the smaller teams, as well.

“I think we have put together a solid point fund, especially when you consider it’s only 10 races. This is the second year we’ve had this in place, and we hope to keep growing it in the future.”

The first race in the series takes place this Sunday on Providence Motorsports and Partners Night, which also features the 358 Sprints. Hot-lap time trials begin at 3:15, with heats going off at 4 p.m.

There will be a pair of 410 Sprint Car programs on April 13 and April 27. The latter show will also feature the 358 Modifieds and a 410 Non-Winner’s Race.
The 410 Sprints and PASS 305 Sprints will highlight the May 18 show before the 410 Sprints and Super Sportsman take center stage on June 8.

Pennsylvania Speedweek visits BAPS Motor Speedway on June 29 before the World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Car Series roll into town on July 23. The Outlaws show is a non-point event for the locals.

Things pick up again on August 24 with 410 Sprints and PASS 305 Sprints. September is highlighted by the Kevin Gobrecht Classic paying $10,000 to win on September 20. The Britton Finkenbinder Memorial takes place October 25, and the prestigious Sprint Showdown caps the season on November 15.

“We’ve worked hard on building these 410 Sprint Car programs, and the teams and fans have responded with a lot of support,” Gouse said. “None of this would be possible without the drivers and teams showing up to race and the fans purchasing tickets to see our events.

“Last year’s success led us to the decision to add a couple of more races in 2025. We want to continue to build on that success for years to come, and adding to the point fund is a good way to start.”

Port Royal Speedway

Port Royal, PA -- Spring weather can always prove to be tricky in Pennsylvania when it comes to running a dirt race. A 45 minute weather delay didn't stop Anthony Macri and Rick Eckert from finding their way to victory land at Port Royal Speedway on Saturday March 22nd.

In the Weikert's Livestock A-main event, Brock Zearfoss and Kelby Watt led the field to green in the 25 lap race.

Zearfoss would lead the opening two laps before Danny Dietrich would slow to a stop on the front stretch to bring out the race's first caution.

On the ensuing restart, Kelby Watt attempted a sliding pass for the lead on Zearfoss, cutting right in front of the Eichelberger number 8 machine, but Zearfoss was able to steer his ride back to the inside and regain the lead.

With 16 laps to go, Zearfoss faced a brief scare when Austin Bishop spun around in turns 3 and 4 in front of Zearfoss with the leader squeaking by in a near miss.

Following the restart Anthony Macri, after starting in the 7th spot, would pass by Watt and Steve Buckwalter to get to the runner-up spot and start to track down Zearfoss.

An accident in turn 1 involving Doug Hammaker, Mike Wagner and Austin Bishop would bring out the race's only red flag of the night and allowed teams to make minor adjustments to their ride under open red flag conditions.

When the race returned to green with 9 laps remaining, Macri would duck to the inside of Zearfoss and slide in front to take the lead away.

The race's final caution flag came out with 2 laps remaining as Kelby Watt slowed to a stop on the backstretch ending his night and setting up for a green-white-checkered finish.

Zearfoss would pull to the inside of Macri in turn 1 in an attempt for the lead, but Macri stayed glued to the top side of the racetrack to get back by and would hold on for the $6,000 payday.

Zearfoss would hold on for 2nd and Chase Dietz would round out the top 3.

In Penske Racing Shocks super late model competition, Rick Eckert would start on the pole and lead all 25 laps to pick up the opening day win.

He would face challenges from Gregg Satterlee in the midway portion of the race, but a caution flag would reset the field, allowing clean air to Eckert and aided him to a $4,000 victory.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action on Saturday March 29th with Weikert's Livestock 410 sprint cars, Penske Racing Shocks super late models, and Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models.

Abbottstown, PA (March 15, 2025) – Freddie Rahmer made a statement on Saturday night at Lincoln Speedway, leading all 30 laps to capture the win in the third race of the 2025 season.

Rahmer surged into the lead at the drop of the green flag with Jeff Halligan, Chad Trout, and Chase Dietz in pursuit. Danny Dietrich quickly made his presence known, challenging Chad Trout for fourth before Chad pulled away.

Rahmer wasted no time building a lead, stretching it out as he reached lapped traffic by lap five. Dietz began closing in on Halligan for second as the leaders navigated heavy traffic. On lap 10, Dietz powered past Halligan coming out of turn four to take over the runner-up spot.

Trout pressured Halligan for third but bobbled on the back stretch allowing Dietrich to get by. Trout got back by Dietrich but the two continued to swap positions in a spirited battle behind the leaders. Dietz methodically reeled Rahmer in as the laps clicked off in traffic.

The race was halted on lap 14 when Preston Lattomus flipped in turn three, with Kelby Watt having nowhere to go his night ended as well. Both drivers were unharmed.

On the restart, Rahmer chose the high side while Dietz went low. Dietrich took advantage of the restart to grab third from Halligan. Another red flag flew on lap 16 after Dylan Norris and Tyler Ross tangled on the front stretch. Norris was able to rejoin the field.

Rahmer maintained control on the restart with Dietz and Dietrich in tow. Halligan pulled away from Chad Trout in the battle for fourth as lapped traffic came into play again on lap 22. Dietz kept Rahmer in his sights and began closing in with five laps to go.

Behind the leaders, Troy Wagaman worked his way past Trout for fifth, but Trout fought back in the closing laps.

In the end, Rahmer held off Dietz’s late charge to capture the win, with Dietrich completing the podium. Halligan and Trout rounded out the top five.

Frankie Herr Claims 358 Season Opener

Frankie Herr kicked off the 2025 358 Sprint Car season at Lincoln Speedway in dramatic fashion, surviving multiple restarts and holding off a hard-charging field to score the win.

Nash Ely and Herr made up the front row for the 20-lap feature, with Ely jumping out to the early lead. The action was halted almost immediately when Brian Wolf Jr. flipped in turn three and Olivia Thayer crashed in turn four, bringing out the red flag and forcing a complete restart. Both drivers were uninjured.

On the second attempt, Herr powered into the lead, but the race was stopped again when Brayden Mickley and Tom Senseney tangled in turn one, bringing out another red flag.

The third time was the charm as Herr and Ely went wheel-to-wheel into turn one, with Herr gaining the advantage out of turn two. Behind them, Chase Gutshall and Ashley Cappetta battled for third, with Gutshall securing the spot.

Cody Fletcher began making moves on the high side, working his way into the top five. On lap five, the caution flag flew when Trevor Stover spun in turn four. Herr led Ely, Gutshall, Cappetta, and Fletcher to the single-file restart. Ely looked under Herr on the restart but couldn’t complete the pass.

Fletcher continued his charge, passing Cappetta for fourth before another caution on lap nine for a Wyatt Hinkle spin in turn four.

On the restart, Fletcher went to the outside and took third from Gutshall, then set his sights on Ely. Fletcher ran a half lane higher to build momentum but lost ground when he tried the bottom in turns one and two.

Dylan Norris entered the mix late, passing Cappetta for fifth and challenging Gutshall for fourth. On the final lap, Norris completed the pass to secure fourth at the line.

Herr held off Ely’s late challenge to capture the season-opening victory, with Fletcher rounding out the podium. Dylan Norris and Chase Gutshall completed the top five.

Next Saturday, March 22, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints. Racing is scheduled for 6PM with pit gates opening at 3:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 4PM.

DIETRICH CHARGES TO VICTORY: Lincoln Kearchner Claims East Coast Legends Season Opener

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, March 15 (6PM) 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints

Saturday, March 22 (6PM) 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints

Saturday, March 29 (6PM) 410 Sprints and Wingless Super Sportsman

Abbottstown, PA (March 9, 2025) – Defending track champion Troy Wagaman started on the pole for the 30-lap feature at Lincoln Speedway on Sunday afternoon, but it was Danny Dietrich who made a statement, charging to victory in a thrilling battle through lapped traffic and late-race restarts.

At the drop of the green flag, Wagaman led the field into turn one with Chase Dietz settling into second, followed by Dietrich in third and Chad Trout in fourth. Brock Zearfoss ran fifth in the early laps but quickly worked his way past Trout for fourth. The top three—Wagaman, Dietz, and Dietrich—raced the high line through turns three and four while Dietrich experimented with the low groove in turns one and two.

The first caution of the race flew on lap six when Jordan Givler spun in turn two. On the restart, Wagaman led Dietz, Dietrich, Zearfoss, and Trout, but a red flag quickly followed after Freddie Rahmer flipped in turn one. The incident also collected Brandon Rahmer, JJ Loss, and Lucas Wolfe. Loss and Brandon Rahmer were able to rejoin the field for the restart.

When racing resumed, Wagaman defended the top lane, but Dietz made his move, diving to the bottom of turn three to take the lead on lap seven. Dietrich followed suit, passing Wagaman for second as Brock Zearfoss challenged for third. An intense moment saw Brock scrape the wall in turn two, nearly spinning before regaining control. The incident caused Trout to check up, allowing Tyler Ross and Matt Campbell to move up positions.

Dietz reached lapped traffic on lap 12, with Dietrich hot on his heels. Sticking to his preferred low line, Dietrich battled Dietz wheel-to-wheel, officially leading the race at the halfway point. Tyler Ross continued his charge forward, breaking into the top five after passing Campbell.

A caution on lap 19 for a Justin Whittall spin in turn four reset the field, with Dietrich leading Dietz, Wagaman, Zearfoss and Ross. Ross made quick work of Zearfoss to take fourth, as Zearfoss struggled and fell off the pace.

A final caution on lap 23, brought on by Zearfoss’ coming to a stop in turn 2, erased Dietrich’s 1.8-second lead, but the Gettysburg driver nailed the restart, maintaining control in the closing laps. A hard-charging Chad Trout battled with Campbell for fifth, but a slip-up allowed Aaron Bollinger to sneak by.

Dietrich emerged victorious, claiming his first win of the season in the second race at Lincoln Speedway. The race ended under red flag conditions after Whittall was involved in another incident after the checkered waved for Dietrich.

Official Top Five Finish: 1. Danny Dietrich; 2. Chase Dietz; 3. Troy Wagaman; 4. Tyler Ross; 5. Matt Campbell

Lincoln Kearchner Claims East Coast Legends Season Opener

The East Coast Legends feature at Lincoln Speedway on Sunday delivered intense side-by-side action, dramatic cautions, and a thrilling three-car battle for the win. In the end, it was Lincoln Kearchner who emerged victorious after leading from the start and fending off late-race challenges.

At the drop of the green flag, Kearchner and Bill Diehl went side by side into turn one before going three-wide off turn two. However, an eight-car pileup in turn three forced a complete restart. On the second attempt, Kearchner again led out of turn two, while Diehl and Mike Racine battled for second.

Seth Kearchner quickly entered the mix, making it a three-wide battle for second with Diehl and Racine before settling into a head-to-head duel with Diehl. Seth moved into second behind his son on lap five, but a caution for a three-car spin in turn four negated the pass.

On the restart, Lincoln led Diehl, Seth, Racine, and Chris Transeau. Logan Jones made his way into the top five after getting by Transeau, then moved up to fourth past Racine. The race saw another caution on lap 11 when Jones spun in turn two, collecting Wayne Dutterer in the process.

As racing resumed, Diehl made a bid for the lead, sticking his nose under Lincoln down the backstretch. At the line, the two were side by side with Seth close behind. Lincoln held the top spot as Diehl and Seth continued their battle for second. With six laps to go, Jeremy Ott joined the front pack, moving into third as the top three pulled away from the rest of the field.

A caution on lap 17 dampened the excitement of the three-car battle for the lead, setting up a three-lap dash to the finish. Ott challenged Seth for second on the restart but couldn’t complete the pass—until the final lap, when he edged ahead at the line to claim the runner-up spot behind race winner Lincoln Kearchner.

Official Top Five Finish: 1. Lincoln Kearchner; 2. Jeremy Ott; 3. Seth Kearchner; 4. Bill Diehl; 5. Mike Racine

Next Saturday, March 15, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints. Racing is scheduled for 6PM with pit gates opening at 3:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 4PM.

Williams Grove Opening Day Win List Includes Favorites And Upsets

Oval Opens 2025 Season Sunday At 2

3/9/25

Mechanicsburg –Opening day at Williams Grove Speedway is a tradition that dates back to the maiden season in 1939 when The Flying Dutchman, Tommy Hinnershitz of Oley claimed the very first race held at the track.

And another chapter in Williams Grove lidlifter history is set to unfold this Sunday, March 16 at 2 pm when the 2025 season opener is spun off featuring the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars.

Presented by Hoosier, gates for Opening Day 2025 will open at noon with the sprint cars racing for a $5,500 payday in a 25-lap main event.

Adult general admission is set at $20 with youth ages 13-20 admitted for just $10 while kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

A host of prominent and some not so well known names dot the opening day win list at Williams Grove Speedway.

Hinnershitz, a AAA East champion in his career, claimed a total of three openers.

Other top names of the 1940s and 1950s that scored the Williams Grove opener included Ted Horn, Jimmy Bryan, Johnny Mackison Sr. and more.

On his way to immortality for fans of the 1960s and 1970s, Leroy Felty scored the opener twice in his career, in 1961 and 1966.

A Texan destined for greatness by the name of AJ Foyt took the victory in 1964.

Another man on his way to racing immortality, Jan Opperman hit the local scene for his first of three Williams Grove opening day wins in 1970.

Other popular winners of the 1960s and 1970s included Kenny Weld, Dick Tobias, Kramer Williamson, Smokey Snellbaker, Ray Tilley and Bobby Allen.

The duo of Lynn Paxton and Keith Kauffman struck for a total of five lidlifter wins in the decade of the 1980s while a virtual unknown in sprint cars, Kevin Collins, upended the field in 1983.

The 1990s dawned with Kenny Adams scoring a victory before Don Kreitz Jr. and Fred Rahmer each took a pair of opener wins.

Brian Paulus closed the decade with what was perhaps considered an upset win before a youngster from Enumclaw, Washington, began the 2000s with an undisputed upset, coming at the hands of a pre-Nascar Kasey Kahne.

Greg Hodnett would etch his name on the historical first race win list twice during the 2000s while familiar names like Lance Dewease, Cris Eash, Kreitz and Rahmer would return along with a popular win for underdog Mike Erdley of Elizabethville.

Rahmer and Hodnett continued winning into the 2010s while first time checkers went to Danny Dietrich and Lucas Wolfe of Mechanicsburg.

By far, the upset of the decade of the 2010s came at the hands of New Oxfords Gerard McIntyre Jr. in 2014.

Opening Days of the 2020s so far have seen invaders score three of five events.

California outlaws driver Carson Macedo dropped in for opening day laurels in 2020 with Indianans Justin Peck and Zeb Wise following suit in 2022 and 2023.

Defending track champion Freddie Rahmer broke through in 2021 while Anthony Macri of Dillsburg is the defending Opening Day champion.

Port Royal Speedway Cancels Opening Day Due to Saturated Grounds and Poor Weekend Forecast

March 6, 2025 -- Port Royal, PA – Port Royal Speedway has been forced to cancel this Saturday’s scheduled Opening Day presented by Packer’s Concessions due to saturated grounds from recent rainfall and an unfavorable weather forecast for the weekend. Despite preparations to kick off the highly anticipated 2025 racing season, precipitation received this week has left the racing surface and surrounding areas unsuitable for competition.

The Weikert’s Livestock 410 Sprint Car and Penske Racing Shocks Super Late Model divisions will now make their season debut on March 22 as part of a rescheduled Opening Day program.

With this cancellation, the next scheduled event at The Speed Palace will now be the Speed Showcase Weekend on March 14-15, featuring the Bob Hilbert’s Sportswear Short Track Super Series. This two-day event will bring some of the best modified competitors to the track for an action-packed weekend.

Port Royal Speedway appreciates the patience and understanding of its fans, drivers, and teams as we navigate the early season weather challenges. We look forward to seeing everyone at the track soon for another great year of racing.

New Rides For Williams Grove Drivers In 2025

Opening Day Is Two Weeks Away

3/2/25

Mechanicsburg – Slated to get underway in two weeks, on Sunday afternoon March 16 at 2 pm, the new racing season at Williams Grove Speedway might find fans working to catch up on off-season ride changes.

The Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint oval track champion for two years running, Freddie Rahmer is back behind the wheel of his father’s familiar No. 51 machine for the 2025 campaign.

Rahmer vacated the seat of Rich Eichelberger’s No. 8 at the conclusion of last season after taking the crowns.

The Salfordville speedster is no stranger to his dad’s mount, having also scored two Williams Grove track championships in the car as he got started in the sport.

The Eichelberger No. 8 in the meantime quickly found a new jockey for its wheel.

Jonestown’s Brock Zearfoss will be Eichelberger’s new hired pilot, coming back home to race at Williams Grove on a weekly basis after spending several years racing on the road with national touring series.

Both owner and driver have set a goal to win the 2025 track title at Williams Grove.

The Stehman No. 23 machine, formerly driven by Washington’s Devon Borden, has picked up York’s Chase Dietz as pilot for the season at hand.

Dietz picked up one win at Williams Grove last season aboard his own No. 2D while piloting the Zemco No. 1 elsewhere in the area.

However Dietz changed homes over the winter months to take on the No. 23 chores and along for the ride has come former Zemco mechanic Tommy Carl.

Devon Borden meanwhile has taken over the reigns of the Grove Racing No. 45 based out of Ohio.

Borden and the No. 45 will compete at Williams Grove several times in 2025 including for the return of the All Stars Circuit of Champions Sprints series to the track on June 6 as part of the Lynn Paxton EMMR Legends Classic.

Elsewhere, Ryan Smith will pilot the Don Kreitz Jr. No. 69K in select Williams Grove races throughout the year while Daryn Pittman will jockey the car in outlaws races as he has done the last two seasons.

And stepping up from 358 sprint competition for at least some 410 action at the speedway this year will be Grantville’s Doug Hammaker.

The defending oval 358 sprint champion, Hammaker will be the wheel man for the return of the Kline No. 22 sprinter to area wars as car owner Sandy Kline reenters the fray.

Hoosier will present Opening Day at Williams Grove on Sunday March 16.

Paying $5,500 to the winner of the 25-lap affair, the season lidlifter will be a 410 sprint car-only, afternoon racing program.

The full 2025 Williams Grove Speedway schedule of events can be viewed and printed from the new website.

CHASE DIETZ SCORES ICE BREAKER VICTORY IN DEBUT WITH NEW TEAM

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, March 1 (3PM) 410 Sprints and PA Micro Midgets

Saturday, March 8 (6PM) 410 Sprints and East Coast Legends

Saturday, March 15 (6PM) 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints

Abbottstown, PA (February 23, 2025) – After falling back on the initial start, Chase Dietz rebounded in spectacular fashion, charging through the field to capture the feature win at Lincoln Speedway on Sunday, February 23 at the Ice Breaker presented by Tyson Fence. Dietz’s win came in his first race with his new team, Stehman Motorsports,

Dietz, who started on the pole, slipped to fifth at the drop of the green flag as Gerard McIntyre took control of the race with Danny Dietrich and Jeff Halligan in pursuit. Dietrich powered into the lead on lap nine, just before lapped traffic came into play. Meanwhile, Dietz began to find his rhythm, working his way back into contention.

By lap 16, Dietz made his move on McIntyre, sliding into the runner-up spot going into turn three. As Dietrich battled lapped traffic, Dietz began to close the gap, both drivers favoring the high side of the speedway. A late-race adjustment saw Dietrich try the low line in turns 1 and 2, allowing Dietz to gain even more ground.

The battle for the lead intensified, with Dietz pulling alongside Dietrich coming out of turn four, but Dietrich held on. A strong run off turn 2 gave Dietz the momentum he needed, and he surged ahead out of turn four, taking the lead on lap 23.

Troy Wagaman moved into third as Dietz navigated lapped traffic, but a late-race caution with three laps to go threatened to shake things up. McIntyre and Tyler Ross tangled, with McIntyre—who had led the opening eight laps—coming to a stop in turn 2.

On the final restart, Dietz got a strong jump. Dietrich made one last charge with two to go, but Dietz was too strong, crossing the finish line 1.115 seconds ahead for the victory.

The top five finishers were Chase Dietz, Danny Dietrich, Troy Wagaman, Brent Marks, and Aaron Bollinger.

Next Saturday, March 1, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the 410 Sprints and PA Micro Midgets. Racing is scheduled for 3PM with pit gates opening at 12:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 1PM.

Brock Zearfoss Returns To Weekly Williams Grove Wars In 2025

Driver teams with Eichelberger and former chief Shuttlesworth for title campaign

2/23/25

Mechanicsburg – When the new season starts for the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars at Williams Grove Speedway on March 16, a familiar face will return to the weekly sprint car wars at the track.

Brock Zearfoss of Jonestown will again be a weekly competitor at Williams Grove Speedway in 2025 after spending the last six and a half years racing primarily on the road with the World of Outlaws, All Stars and High Limit Sprint Cars Series.

It has been a combination of some self-made plans and weekly car owner Rich Eichelberger’s suddenly vacant No. 8 seat that has put “The Jonestown Jet” back on solid ground at Williams Grove again in 2025.

“It kinda’ just fell into place. I was contemplating coming off the road last year (2024) but we decided to just stick it out and try it again but we ran into crew chief problems and I was making my own calls from May on,” Zearfoss said recently while admitting he’s tired of sitting at home, waiting to get the local season started.

Car owner Eichelberger had suddenly and unexpectedly lost track champion Freddie Rahmer after the conclusion of the Williams Grove season in 2024 and that was right about the time that Zearfoss teamed back up with old crew chief Jim Shuttlesworth to finish out the year.

The driver-crew chief pairing had been together before in the mid-2010s with much success and they quickly turned their reunion into a win during the Central Pennsylvania season finale at BAPS Motor Speedway in November.

“I heard Freddie left that deal and obviously Rich is a really good guy and I honestly never talked to him at all until I called him that night and I figured he’s a good car owner and it’s hard to get good car owners for one much less keep one in the sport anymore,” Zearfoss aid.

“I just called him up out of the blue, I didn’t know what his plans were but I told him if you’d like to continue racing I’d be open to running Williams Grove or something.”

That call led two a two-hour meeting that cemented Zearfoss’ return to the Williams Grove wars.

Zearfoss and Eichelberger will campaign two nights a week in the area while the driver also keeps his own No. 3Z on the track at additional area shows and some others on the road.

“I went down to his shop and we talked. I looked at is as a win-win and we can run 100 races and it saves us (3Z team) 50 races of money. I was looking at it as taking some off of our plate and keeping Rich racing and he was interested in it for sure,” Zearfoss said.

Zearfoss is pumped to get into the 2025 Williams Grove season.

“I’m actually probably the most excited to go racing in a season that I have been probably in four or five years. I’m confident that it’s gonna’ be good. I know its gonna’ be good,” he says.

“I feel like we have the right pieces in the right places. I think once we get goin’ here we’re gonna’ be really good. I know Rich is excited. I haven’t really been this excited to go racing since probably the first year on the outlaws tour.”

Zearfoss says getting back with Shuttlesworth and being able to bring him into the Eichelberger team was a key component to making his homecoming work.

“It brought a different level of confidence to the team and myself - having Jim come back and filling that role that we needed filled.”

“He knew what I needed. He understands me and I understand him and we just click. And it makes life easier,” Zearfoss relates.

“You can’t be on the road without a good crew chief and expect to beat those guys. And it was taking a lot of time from me,” the driver reveals.

“We decided to come home for a year or two and try to regroup. And I worked with Jim before and we had a lot of success and I just thought it was the right move.”

Zearfoss says both he and veteran driver/owner Eichelberger have their eyes set on the 2025 Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint track title at Williams Grove.

“Truthfully I know that’s one of his goals and we’ll do our best to do that,” Zearfoss says.

Eichelberger lays claim to the last two Williams Grove track championships with Rahmer at the helm.

“Rich has good stuff. And he’s not afraid to make a purchase if we need something else. I’d say we’re in good shape. He’s got plenty of equipment and it’s good quality stuff,” Zearfoss says of his new car owner.

“The position that we are in right now, I feel like we’re just in the best spot we’ve been at in the last four or five years.”

“At the end of the day there’s a little less on my plate and I can focus on driving again and doing what I need to do in the racecars,” Zearfoss summarizes.

Now 34, Brock Zearfoss owns four career 410 sprint car wins at Williams Grove Speedway and a pair in 358 sprint action.

He pulled off a stunning upset aboard Aaron Long’s No. 58 when he trounced the World of Outlaws at Williams Grove in the 2017 Summer Nationals.

Hoosier will present Opening Day at Williams Grove in three weeks, on Sunday afternoon, March 16 at 2 pm.

Paying $5,500 to the winner of the 25-lap affair, the season lidlifter will be a 410 sprint car-only, afternoon racing program.

More details to follow on all events.

The Eastern Storm was created by Grandview Speedway Track Owner Bruce Rogers and Special events organizer Bob Miller. In 2006 Miller met with USAC at the Lawrenceburg Speedway to offer the idea of bringing USAC back East. The Berks County tradition of USAC racing goes back to 1956 when Oley, PA driver Tommy Hinnershitz won the inaugural USAC event. Hinnershitz won the USAC event again in 1957 and 1958.

The USAC history at Reading continued until 1979 when the track closed. The roster of USAC winners at Reading is legendary and to name just a few who join Hinnershitz on the win list include A.J. Foyt, Johnny Thomson, Eddie Sachs, Jim Hurtibise, Roger McCluskey, Bobby Unser, Johnny Rutherford, Red Riegel, Greg Weld, Bruce Walkup, Larry Dickson, Gary Bettenhausen, Toby Tobias, Pancho Carter, Larry “Boom Boom” Cannon, Lee Osborne and Ronnie Shuman. Paul Pitzer won the USAC finale at Reading in 1979.

Twenty-eight years later, the NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series re-introduced USAC non-wing sprint car racing to Berks and other surrounding counties with the birth of the USAC Eastern Storm in 2007. The Series opened at the one-third mile Grandview Speedway in Bechtelsville, PA. The USAC Eastern Storm has been growing in this area ever since that first race.

Williams Grove Speedway Mourns Loss Of Car Owner Joe Harz

11/18/24

Mechanicsburg – For the second time in just a few short days, Williams Grove Speedway is mourning the loss of one of its greatest car owners, Joe Harz of Elmer, New Jersey.

Harz passed away recently at the age of 77.

The Garden State owner fielded the notable yellow No. 88H sprint car at Williams Grove and in the region for the better part of 18 seasons, spanning portions of the 1980s, 1990s and 2000s.

By the end of his tenure as a sprint car owner, the likeable and lanky Harz had amassed a total of 169 total sprint victories including 41 at Williams Grove Speedway.

Harz started his ownership career in the modified ranks in 1979 and owned for drivers Lee Elwell and Meme DeSantis until 1984 when he took Desantis sprint car racing.

After nine wins with Desantis in the mods, the pairing scored four sprint wins before the close of 1985.

Harz had the talents of Salfordville’s Fred Rahmer behind his wheel more than once, first in 1986 and then again from 2002 through 2005 when the duo closed out Harz’s career with 85 victories to their credit including a 34-win season in 2004 followed by 29 wins a year later in what was to be Joe Harz’s final season owning a sprint car.

Lance Dewease of Fayetteville piloted the No. 88H from mid-1999 through the 2001 season, amassing a total of 47 wins.

Red Lion’s Kenny Adams completed two stints for Harz during his ownership tenure, scoring 22 total wins for the stable.

At Williams Grove Speedway, Adams and Rahmer won the season opener for Harz in 1990 and 2005, respectively.

Rahmer won the Grove Early Bird Championship for Harz in 2005.

Dewease and Rahmer scored a total of three Mitch Smith Memorials for the team.

With the likes of Dewease and Rahmer at the wheel, the Joe Harz No. 88H bested the World of Outlaws in the Williams Grove Summer Nationals (Rahmer) in 2005 and in the prestigious National Open (Dewease) in 2001.

Another Grove outlaws win for Rahmer occurred in May of 2004 and Rahmer also won the WoO National Open Prelim in 2005.

Dewease upended the World of Outlaws Division II drivers for Harz at Williams Grove in 2001.

In the Williams Grove National Open, aside from his ownership victory with Dewease as driver in 2001, Harz’s mounts garnered five additional top five finishes in the race over a span of eight consecutive season including with Keith Kauffman in 1998.

Dewease scored the Williams Grove Speedway track title for Harz in 2001 before Rahmer claimed Grove laurels for the 88H in 2004 and 2005.

The pairing of Harz and Rahmer also took the 2005 Williams Grove Diamond Series title.

Other track titles accumulated by the Harz stable included five at Lincoln Speedway, four at Grandview, one at Selinsgrove and one at Baps Motor Speedway.

Harz’s cars also piled up a total of five Pennsylvania Speedweek crowns.

Sean Michael scored nine URC Sprint wins for Harz during the 1996 and 1997 seasons while also taking the 1997 URC Sprint tour title.

Other drivers to grace the Harz No. 88H seat included Kramer Williamson, Rich Lupo, Matt Bruce and Mike Wagner.

Williams Grove Speedway celebrated the dedicated and always friendly car owner with a tribute event in 2022.

The legacy of Joe Harz at Williams Grove Speedway and in the sport is one that can boast of prolific wins and win totals that will never be forgotten along with his most-friendly character and persona.

Williams Grove Speedway extends its deepest condolences to the family and friends of Mr. Joe Harz along with its utmost respect for his dedication and contribution to the sport.

Selinsgrove Speedway Reopening

SELINSGROVE, PA (November 17th, 2024

The Selinsgrove Speedway will be back in action for the 2025 racing season. After an abbreviated 2024 season, the track, that first opened in 1946, will be operated by a new promotional team. Snyder County Dirt (SCD) Management Group llc has entered into a lease agreement with the Selinsgrove Fair Board ensuring the speedway will remain in operation.

Paula Schick, Jenna Mowery and Colin Rice will head up the SCD Group and is planning a Friday April 11th, Grand Reopening with 410 Sprint Cars and Late Models on the schedule and conclude with a fireworks display. There will also be a practice day before the season gets underway.

Schick, who first attended Selinsgrove when she was 4 days old is the daughter of two time Late Model track champion Paul Long and wife of two time Late Model track champion, Donnie Schick. Mowery is Schick’s daughter and the wife of Limited Late Model driver Tyson Mowery and Rice has also been a familiar face at the speedway his entire life. All have worked in various positions at the track.

“We are tentatively planning a schedule of 23 races.” Schick said. “Racing will primarily be on Friday and Saturday nights with some big events on Sunday’s.”

“We are currently working with both Port Royal and Clinton County speedways to have a schedule that will benefit all the tracks.” Schick continued. “I anticipate that we will release a complete schedule sometime in December.”

“Late Models will be our weekly show with Roadrunners as our other main division but plans are to also have 410, 305 and 358 Sprint Cars, Limited Late Models and Wingless Sportsman on the schedule. We are also looking at having a $1000 to win 4 cylinder race and have spoken to other sanctioning bodies as to their availability.”

“We want to make the speedway the community place to be throughout the season with several special event nights designed to make race night fun for the whole family. Ladies’ Night, Kid’s Night, Fan Appreciation Night, First Responders’ Night, Military Night, and Back to School Night have all been popular in the past and will be back on the schedule.”

Selinsgrove Raceway Park, the inner 1/5th mile dirt oval will also be back in action hosting several Kart races along with the possible return of the popular 270 Micro Sprints in the Roger Folk Memorial.

The speedway has launched a new website at www.raceselinsgrove.com where fans can go for information and updates. Their Facebook page is Selinsgrove Speedway & Raceway Park. You can also find them on Instagram and X, formerly Twitter.

Williams Grove Speedway Remembers Walter Dyer, No. 461 Car Owner

11/15/24

Mechanicsburg – The staff and management of Williams Grove Speedway is mourning the loss of one of its most venerable and iconic sprint car owners, Walter Dyer of Mercersburg.

Dyer, the decades-long owner of the Dyer Masonry No. 461 “Brickmobile” sprint car, passed away early Friday at the age of 90.

Aside from fielding his iconic No. 461 sprint car with a brick wing, Walter “Bud” Dyer is perhaps best known for launching the prolific career of veteran sprint car star Lance Dewease in late 1991.

It was a tenure that would net over 130 wins for the pair.

However Dyer’s legacy of ownership and success dates to 1967 and his first driver, John Ebersole, but it was a career that would span some 34 years and encompass some of the best drivers the sport had to offer while they picked up some of the biggest races the sport had to offer.

At Williams Grove Speedway Dyer’s car beat the World of Outlaws on more than one occasion, with pilots Billy Stief and Dewease at the wheel.

Dyer Williams Grove victories, totaling 49 in all, came in not only outlaws and All Stars races but they also came in the prestigious National Open in 1996, in the Open Preliminary in 1994 and 1996, the Early Bird Championship in 1995 and 1996 and in the Jack Gunn Memorial in 1995 and 1996 – all with Dewease as pilot.

Dewease also took the Williams Grove Mitch Smith Memorial for Dyer in 1992, 1995 and 1997 while driver Joey Allen claimed the race for him in 1990.

Dyer’s No. 461 first graced the historic Williams Grove winner’s circle in 1977 with Jimmy Sheaffer in the seat after taking its first win anywhere at Hagerstown Speedway in 1973 with Jimmy Edwards as driver.

And ironically, on 4/6/01, Dyer saw his car take its final victory anywhere, at Williams Grove Speedway with Delaware’s Curt Michael scoring the checkered flag.

After retiring from the sport following the 2001 season, Dyer made a brief, one-year comeback in 2007 with grandson-in-law Tommy Beavers working the throttle but the record books would close on the No. 461 with over 165 wins having passed over its famed brick wing.

Drivers Cliff Brian and Mike Wagner took the only Williams Grove wins of their careers aboard the Dyer mount.

Walter Dyer was the 1994 and 1996 sprint car owner track titlist at Williams Grove Speedway with Dewease as his driver.

Dyer was also the 1997 Pennsylvania Speedweek car owner champion.

Other track titles included seven at Port Royal Speedway and a 1998 Grandview Speedway Thunder on the Hill series title.

Some of the other drivers that graced the seat of the No. 461 during its memorable tenure included: Sean Michael, Paul Lotier, George Ferguson Jr., Gary Howsare, Len Thompson, Don Hill, Tom Stimely, Steve Siegel, Van May, Dub May, Rod Gross, Scott Tobias, Keith Kauffman, Bob Elbin, Smokey Snellbaker, Kramer Williamson and Gary Brazier.

At the age of 86, Walt Dyer was inducted into the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame in Knoxville, Iowa, in 2020.

Williams Grove Speedway feted the dedicated, familiar and jovial car owner with a tribute event in 2018.

The mark that Walt Dyer and his iconic car left on sprint car racing in the region and at Williams Grove Speedway was indelible and will never be forgotten.

Williams Grove Speedway extends its deepest condolences to the many family and friends of Mr. Walter Dyer along with its deepest appreciation for all that he meant to so many.

MARKS CLAIMS $15,000 VICTORY PLUS $5,000 BONUS IN THRILLING FINAL 50 AT LINCOLN SPEEDWAY; TROY WAGAMAN SECURES FIRST CAREER TRACK CHAMPIONSHIP; Rumsey Claims Victory to Close Out Season at Lincoln Speedway; Steve Owings Claims Third Track Championship

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, February 22 & Sunday, February 23, 2025 ICE BREAKER 30 WEEKEND

Abbottstown, PA (October 20, 2024) – Lincoln Speedway's Final 50 delivered an unforgettable night of racing, with Brent Marks securing the $15,000 top prize after a hard-fought battle plus the $5,000 bonus for leading at lap 25. The highly anticipated event saw intense action and lead changes as the drivers navigated lapped traffic and vied for positions throughout the race.

The 50-lap feature kicked off with Matt Campbell grabbing the early lead after a strong start on the high side, overtaking Brent Marks, who led the field into turn 1. Behind them, Chase Dietz and Jacob Allen locked into a duel for third, with Allen initially holding the position. As the laps clicked off, Allen put pressure on Marks for second while Dietz closed in. Dietz made his move on lap 5, overtaking Allen for third on the backstretch.

Anthony Macri quickly entered the fray, taking fifth from Devon Borden on lap 6 and then setting his sights on the front runners. Campbell faced lapped traffic early, with three lapped cars separating him from Marks before Marks also caught the slower cars. Macri continued his charge, overtaking Allen for fourth on lap 10.

As Campbell battled to clear lapped traffic, Marks closed the gap. The pair raced through the slower cars, with Marks testing the bottom of the track but sticking to the top after seeing Dietz close in. By lap 22, Macri had climbed to third, challenging Dietz for position. Dietz hit the wall while trying to reclaim the spot, bringing out the caution.

On the restart, Marks pounced, taking the lead from Campbell just before the scheduled halfway break. The running order for the restart after the break was Marks, Campbell, Macri, Freddie Rahmer, and Troy Wagaman, who moved into fifth after Jacob Allen was penalized for passing before the cone. Marks earned a $5,000 bonus for leading at the break, Campbell took home a $2,000 bonus, Macri scored an extra $1,500, Rahmer’s share was $1,000 and Wagaman’s was $500.

When racing resumed, Macri made his move into second and began to challenge Marks for the lead. Meanwhile, Rahmer and Campbell fiercely battled for third, with Campbell holding off Rahmer's slider attempt. As the leaders worked through lapped traffic again on lap 34, the top three—Marks, Macri, and Campbell—stuck to the high side, keeping the fans on the edge of their seats.

Macri began experimenting with the low line, gaining ground on Marks as the laps wound down. However, Marks held steady, maintaining his advantage and crossing the finish line first to claim the $15,000 victory. Macri finished a close second, followed by Campbell in third, Rahmer in fourth, and Wagaman rounding out the top five.

With his fifth place finish, Troy Wagaman secured his first Lincoln Speedway Track Championship. Wagaman’s mechanic, Ben Engle, was awarded the 2024 Mechanic of the Year honors. The 2024 Rookie of the Year was Kody Hartlaub. Aaron Bollinger received the Most Improved Driver Award. The 2024 Harry Fletcher Sportsmanship Award was given to Chad Trout.

Rumsey Claims Victory to Close Out Season at Lincoln Speedway; Steve Owings Claims Third Track Championship

The 358 sprint car feature saw Logan Rumsey take the checkered flag after a fierce battle for the lead, marking an exciting conclusion to Lincoln’s 2024 season. The race was filled with intense competition and bold moves, making for an unforgettable evening.

Preston Lattomus led the field into turn 1, holding off Rumsey to lead the opening lap. However, the race was quickly halted by a red flag after Cody Fletcher took a wild tumble in turn 3. Thankfully, Fletcher walked away from the crash uninjured.

When racing resumed, Lattomus continued to pace the field, with Rumsey in tow. The top five on the restart were Lattomus, Rumsey, Wyatt Hinkle, Matt Findley, and Frankie Herr. Doug Hammaker, battling for the season championship, quickly moved into the top five, while Jayden Wolf, another title contender, lurked just behind in sixth.

The caution flag flew at the halfway point for debris in turn 3, setting up another crucial restart. The top five at that point were Lattomus, Rumsey, Hinkle, Findley, and Hammaker. When the green flag dropped, Rumsey began his assault on the lead, going wheel-to-wheel with Lattomus as they crossed the line on lap 11. Rumsey finally powered ahead on lap 12, taking over the top spot.

Lattomus stayed close, attempting to reclaim the lead, but Rumsey began to pull away as the laps wound down. Meanwhile, Hammaker continued his charge, moving up to fourth and keeping his championship hopes alive. Despite Lattomus' efforts to close the gap, Rumsey was unstoppable, cruising to the victory.

Steve Owings claimed his third track championship in the 358 sprint car division with his tenth place finish.

Lincoln Speedway is back in action on Saturday, February 22 and Sunday, February 23, 2025 for the Icebreaker 30 Weekend presented by Tyson Fence.

Californian’s Macedo And Kofoid Sweep Williams Grove Open Races

Carson Gets The Cash In National Open, Kofoid Earns First Win In Prelim

10/5/24

Mechanicsburg –Lemoore, California’s Carson Macedo held off a hard charging Sheldon Haudenschild to win the 62nd Annual Weis Markets National Open Presented By Sage Fruit at Williams Grove Speedway on Saturday night, pocketing $75,000 for the prestigious World of Outlaws victory.

And it proved to be an all California day at the oval for the National Open races as Buddy Kofoid of Penngrove, California, scored the 37th running of the preliminary event earlier in the day after being postponed from Friday due to fog.

Anthony Macri and Macedo took the green flag in the 40-lap National Open for sprint cars from the front row but before a lap could be completed, six-time Open champion Donny Schatz stopped with left front shock damage.

Schatz’s team would make repairs in the work area but he would only get as high as 12th at the finish.

Macri held sway over Macedo and Chase Dietz when action got going and Macedo immediately began taking swipes for the lead.

However Macri seemed up to the challenge as long as he kept his No. 39M on the high side and he even overcame a pass by Macedo for control on the fourth tour before opening up some distance.

But on lap eight when Macri forsake his high line for the bottom in turns one and tow, Macedo capitalized with a run down the backstretch to net command before entering traffic with 10 laps away.

The red flag appeared on lap 12 for Chase Dietz who would end up making hard contact with the outside turn three rail.

Dietz was running fourth when Haudenschild made a bid for the spot only to nearly spin the car which sent Dietz for a ride after he climbed the rear of Haudenschild’s No. 17.

Macri took a look on the low side when action resumed but Macedo would jet away on the cushion.

The field was stopped at the halfway point for refueling.

Haudenschild had taken second from Macri on the 14th tour and lined up behind Macedo for the new green.

James McFadden stole second away from Haudenschild when action resumed and took a swipe at Macedo on lap 22 to no avail.

With 10 laps to go Macedo had a 1.354 second advantage over the field.

But a surging Haudenschild would make it interesting during the final five laps after reclaiming second with six laps to go.

As traffic entered the picture, Haudenschild began biting into Macedo’s lead and as the white flag unfurled the challenger was poised to make a run to the checkers.

Haudenschild chewed four-tenths of a second off of Macedo’s advantage during the last three laps and after a run down the backchute on the final circuit, Haudenschild blasted his machine onto Macedo’s tail as the pair raced back to the line, falling short by just .164 seconds at the finish.

The win was the second of Macedo’s career in the National Open having also taken the win for Jason Johnson Racing in 2021.

Brad Sweet, who started 12th in the field, rode home third, followed by McFadden and Macri.

Sixth through 10th went to David Gravel, defending event champion Brent Marks, Justin Peck, 27th starter Bill Balog and Logan Schuchart.

Heats for the 56 car field went to Gravel, Brian Brown, Macedo and Haudenschild.

Kyle Moody won the C Main and Daryn Pittman won the B Main.

Cale Thomas claimed the non-qualifiers race.

Macri earned the feature pole by winning the dash.

Gravel set quick time with a lap of 16.442 seconds.

Heat race action saw leader Daryn Pittman, in a quest for his first Open title after six runner-up finishes to his credit, turn over in the fourth corner after clipping an infield tire.

And earlier preliminary winner Buddy Kofoid saw his hopes dashed after a flip in his qualifier as well.

The 25-lap preliminary feature as won by Kofoid saw the Californian pull off a daring opening lap, first turn move to go three-wide with Gio Scelzi and Chase Dietz for control.

Scelzi would lead the first six laps before Kofoid blasted underneath for control as traffic loomed just ahead.

Dietz followed Kofoid around Scelzi on the same lap before Scelzi went for a wild ride outside of turn four with 11 laps to go.

Both he and Brent Marks were vying for third when a failed move by Marks sent Scelzi up and out over the rail before his car came to rest against the gate to the outside fourth turn access road, near the parking lot.

Another red flag appeared three laps later when TJ Stutts ended up flipping after contact with a challenging Freddie Rahmer.

Kofoid poured on the speed when action restarted, pulling out to a more than five second lead with five laps to go before crossing the line with a margin of 4.042 seconds over Daryn Pittman at the finish.

Dietz settled for third followed by Marks and 15th starter Donny Schatz.

Jacob Allen won the B Main and Dietz earned the pole for the feature by claiming the dash.

Kofoid earned $12,000 for the first Williams Grove victory of his young career.

Freddie Rahmer wrapped up the 2024 track title at Williams Grove Speedway with his runs in both mains.

The title is the fourth of Rahmer’s career at the oval.

Friday National Open Preliminary Postponed By Fog At Williams Grove

Remaining Friday Program To Be Run Saturday Before 62nd Annual National Open

Saturday Afternoon & Evening National Open Doubleheader Is Set

10/4/24

Mechanicsburg – With thick fog blanketing Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night causing visibility issues for the drivers, World of Outlaws NOS Energy Drink Sprint Cars Series and Williams Grove track officials were forced to postpone the remainder of Friday’s Weis Markets National Open presented by Sage Fruit Preliminary with competitor safety in mind.

Fog began enveloping the speedway prior to the start of heat races, which were won by Daryn Pittman, Kasey Kahne, Brent Marks and David Gravel.

Two non-qualifier mains for the 58-car field were also completed early in the night, taken by Troy Wagaman Jr. and Tyler Courtney.

Austin Bishop won the C Main.

And Brent Marks set overall quick time with a lap of 16.499 seconds.

But by the time the dash cars made it to the speedway following the C Main, the fog had become too dense to proceed any further with the racing program and the decision was made to set up a National Open Doubleheader on Saturday.

Thus the remainder of the event will be completed on Saturday, Oct. 5 prior to the $75,000-to-win/$2,500-to-start National Open finale.

Saturday pit gates will open at 1:00 p.m. followed by general admission gates at 3:00 p.m. with hot laps for the balance of the Friday program slated for 4:00 p.m.

Following the completion of the Friday program all general admission areas will be cleared before being reopened for Saturday night’s 62nd annual Weis Markets National Open presented by Sage Fruit, for which a Saturday ticket will be required.

Reserved and/or general admission tickets for Friday can be used for entry to the remaining portion of Friday’s preliminary event that will be completed on Saturday afternoon.

Friday pit passes can be used for entry to the remainder of Friday’s program but must be swapped for a new band at the pit gate.

Saturday-only ticket holders can purchase general admission or reserved tickets for Friday’s portion of the racing program at the gate if they so desire.

Williams Grove National Open Preliminary History Continues Friday

2024 event to be run October 4

9/30/24

Mechanicsburg - As much as the Weis Markets National Open Presented By Sage Fruite at Williams Grove Speedway deserves its place in sprint car lore as it celebrates its 62nd running on October 5 with a $75,000 payday, the National Open Preliminary race itself also has a place at the history table.

Although not an annual event, the National Open Preliminary race will hold its head high and celebrate its 37th running on October 4.

The preliminary was first run in 1980 with Keith Kauffman taking the win aboard the Weikert Livestock No. 29.

That preliminary win would be the first of two for Weikert in the race with Doug Wolfgang scoring again a few years later in 1985.

Noted author and television commentator of today, driver Brad Doty of Apple Creek, Ohio was lured East back in 1981 and picked up what would be his first of two career Williams Grove wins in the preliminary before suffering career ending injuries in a racing crash a few years later.

The event has only been lost to weather eight times over the years and on 10 occasions the preliminary winner has swept both National Open races, going on to score the coveted big prize in the Open itself.

Sweeps came in 1982, 1985, 1989, 1990, 1995, 1996, 1997, 2011, 2017 and in 2022 at the respective hands of Lynn Paxton, Wolfgang, Stevie Smith, Steve Kinser, Mark Kinser, Lance Dewease, Sammy Swindell, Jason Myers, David Gravel and Lance Dewease.

And that sweep by Paxton in 1982 was surrounded by considerable controversy stemming from the preliminary race.

The Williams Grove record books actually show a tie for the preliminary win between both Paxton and Ohio’s Dave Blaney on September 17.

A young Blaney was leading, headed for his first career Grove win on that night when he ran into mechanical problems as he raced off of the fourth turn toward the checkers.

Veteran Paxton was trailing and gaining fast as Blaney tried to limp home and the scorers documented his No. 10 as crossing the finish line first.

However unrest abounded regarding that decision and a picture of the finish taken at the line produced the next day clearly showed Paxton crossing very close but definitely first.

Thus both drivers were paid for and credited with a victory and Paxton could go on to score the weekend sweep with Grove career wins 38 and 39.

No driver has been able to put up big numbers in the preliminary race over the years unlike within its big brother National Open wherein World of Outlaws driver Donny Schatz is going for an amazing seventh event title in this year’s race.

Rather, in the preliminary no driver holds more than a trio of wins with Kauffman, Steve Kinser, Gravel and Dewease all holding that distinction.

Before the World of Outlaws began sanctioning the preliminary in 1989, the race was contested once as an All Stars Circuit of Champions contest with Maynard Yingst the winner in 1986.

Today and for many years now the National Open Preliminary at Williams Grove is run as a separate and stand-alone show aside from the Open itself.

However for a number of years as an outlaws race, the top four finishers in the preliminary race were automatically locked into the next night’s National Open.

This was standard procedure under World of Outlaws sanctioning rules for two-day shows for many seasons.

In the 2006 running of the event, Washington state driver Jason Solwold made speedway and outlaws history with a preliminary night win.

Up to that point in outlaws history at the track, every sanctioned race ever run had been scored by either a series regular or a clear member of the home team PA Posse.

Solwold’s drive to victory made him the first true independent driver to ever win a Williams Grove outlaws feature main.

Another piece of history from the National Open preliminary comes from 2018 when the “Fresno Phenom,” Giovanni Scelzi crossed the country for an upset win on September 28.

Scelzi’s victory etched his name in the record books as the youngest driver ever to win a sprint car race at the historic venue at the ripe old age of 16.

In 2021, NASCAR star Kyle Larson stopped at Williams Grove and copped the preliminary before going on to claim the season title on NASCAR’s top circuit.

The 2022 version of the race, won by Dewease, ended up being the shortest in history at 10 laps after the race was called official by outlaws gurus thanks to persistent, intermittent light rain.

In 2023 the preliminary main was postponed by drizzle that hit as the feature was circling the track during parade laps. This set up double Open features a night later as the make-up was completed following the National Open itself with Brad Sweet scoring his second outlaws win of the year at Williams Grove in the preliminary.

The 37th running of the 25-lap National Open Preliminary gets underway at 7:30 on October 4.

The winner will receive $12,000.

Admission prices for Friday’s program are $40 for adults and $20 for youth.

Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

Fireworks will be part of the program.

Justin Whittall Tops Williams Grove Sprints, Cole Young Gets First 358 Win

9/20/24

Mechanicsburg – Justin Whittall muscled the lead away from TJ Stutts to win Friday’s Kevin Gobrecht Classic Qualifier for 410 sprint cars at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night.

The second win of his career at the oval, the victory was worth $6,000 for the Garden State driver.

In the 358 sprint main, Spring Grove’s Cole Young took his first career win in the division, leading all 20 laps.

Stutts started on the pole of the 25-lap 410 sprint feature and led over third starter Whittall from the beginning.

On clear track, Whittall kept Stutts in sight but once the leaders began lapping cars, Whittall was able to close the gap and by lap 13 he was letting Stutts know he was in contention.

Whittall chased Stutts down the backchute on lap 15 before plastering him deep in the third corner to get the lead but Stutts fought back as the pair completed the circuit and raced to his outside into the first turn.

The pair raced side by side out of the second turn and down the backchute before Stutts crossed over to surge back into control in the third corner but just as he was making his move the No. 18J of JT Ferry got backwards in the middle of the corners on the high side and turned over.

Both drivers narrowly escaped contact with Ferry’s mount and the red placed Whittall back at the helm.

And it was a spot he would not relinquish as he pulled away nicely when green reappeared and indeed began stretching out a lead of over a straightaway.

His final margin of victory was 3.657 seconds over Stutts.

Kyle Reinhardt rode home third followed by Freddie Rahmer and PA Dyno Hard Charger Danny Dietrich.

Sixth through 10th went to Troy Wagaman Jr., Dylan Norris, Lucas Wolfe, Kody Hartlaub and Devon Borden.

Heats went to Wagaman, Lance Dewease and Wolfe.

Stutts set fast time with a lap of 16.758 seconds.

With the win, Whittall is now a guaranteed starter in Saturday’s Kevin Gobrecht Classic at Baps Motor Speedway.

Second generation driver Cole Young would lead all 20 laps of the 358 sprint main from the pole but he was chased by both Preston Lattomus and Dylan Norris for the win.

The race was marred by a nasty crash on the second lap involving Chad Criswell, Nat Tuckey and Cole Knopp that saw Criswell snap-roll violently.

There were no injuries.

Norris started fifth in the field and drove by Chris Frank for second on the third lap before chasing down the leader to be racing in his shadow.

However he couldn’t quite gain the upper hand on Young and was soon instead racing to stay ahead of sixth starter Lattomus who took second away with eight laps to go.

A final caution flag with five laps to go bunched the field and the restart saw Young pull out to a comfortable lead while Norris went to work reclaiming second.

Young took the win by 1.304 seconds over Norris, Lattomus, Frank and 21st starter Logan Rumsey.

Sixth through 10th went to Doug Hammaker, Derek Locke, Matt Findley, Andy Best and Cody Fletcher.

Heats went to Young, Frank and Wyatt Hinkle with Tuckey taking the consolation race.

Young is the son of former sprint car driver Niki Young who himself owns a pair of 410 sprint car wins at Williams Grove Speedway.

Dietrich Wires For Williams Grove Kimmel Win, Norris Comes From 13th To Win Dirty Deeds 25

9/13/24

Mechanicsburg – Danny Dietrich wired the field to win the Billy Kimmel Memorial for Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night.

Dietrich’s third win of the season at the track was worth $6,000 and it extended his point lead in the 2024 Hoosier Diamond Series at the oval.

In the Dirty Deeds 25 for the HJ Towing & Recovery 358 sprints, Hanover’s Dylan Norris took the win after getting by Justin Foster mid-race for the $3,000 paycheck.

Dietrich and defending Kimmel winner Troy Wagaman Jr. started on the front row of the 25-lap Kimmel Memorial and Dietrich jetted into command at the start of what would be a non-stop event.

The Gettysburg pilot entered the rear of the field, chased by Wagaman, on lap eight and at first was able to handle the traffic but for several laps during the mid-stages he struggled with a pair of cars racing for position.

However Wagaman too was struggling with his own lapped car, which kept Dietrich’s lead secure.

After finally able to work through the traffic, Dietrich stretched out his lead to 2.288 seconds by the finish.

The victory was the 32nd overall of Dietrich’s career at Williams Grove, tying him with Steve Smith Sr. on the all-time win list at the oval.

Wagaman was second followed by Chase Dietz, TJ Stutts and Tyler Ross.

Sixth through 10th went to Freddie Rahmer, Cameron Smith, Justin Whittall, Lucas Wolfe and Aaron Bollinger.

Heats went to Wagaman, Dietrich and Smith with Jordan Givler taking the consolation race.

Chase Dietz set quick time with a lap of 16.897 seconds.

Devin Borden was the PA Dyno Hard Charger.

Polesitter Chad Criswell took the lead at the start of the Dirty Deeds 25 for the 358 sprints but was slowed on just the second tour when the first caution flag of the race appeared.

Third starter Justin Foster moved into second on the fifth lap just before another yellow flag bunched the field.

Foster chased Criswell for the next few laps before driving to his outside on the seventh tour to net control.

Meanwhile, after starting 13th in the field, Dylan Norris was moving to the front and got into second with 12 laps to go.

And then a final caution flag with 10 laps to go closed the gaps and gave Norris his shot at the lead.

When green replaced the yellow, Norris blasted his No. 6 underneath Foster in the first corner to power into control and drive away to his second win of the year at the track in the division.

He took the win by 3.228 seconds over Criswell.

Doug Hammaker was third with 19th starter Derek Locke finishing fourth.

Foster faded to finish fifth.

Sixth through 10th went to Kyle Spence, Chris Frank, Andy Best, Preston Lattomus and Scott Fisher.

Heats were won by Criswell, Steve Downs and Foster with Locke claiming the last chance race.

Locke was the Dirty Deeds and PA Dyno Hard Charger.

Abreu Scores First Career Port Royal Speedway Win in Tuscarora 50 Finale

Article Credit: Brad Strawser

Port Royal, PA -- September 7, 2024 -- Over the past 5 years, it seemed that a win at Port Royal Speedway, especially during the famed Tuscarora 50, would never come Rico Abreu's way, but on Saturday night, Abreu was able to take that burden off his shoulders with a win worth $58,500.

The opening lap of the race saw Lance Dewease and TJ Stutts side by side on the front row with Dewease leading the way before Corey Day would end up upside-down between turns 3 and 4.

Day would get into the wall in turn 3 and would go flipping through the air, ripping the wing off the top of the car, and piercing the fuel cell leaving fuel down across the track.

A complete restart would follow with Stutts and Dewease again on the front row and the Shearer number 12 would lead the opening lap with Abreu in the 2nd spot and Freddie Rahmer rounding out the top 3.

Over the next 13 laps, Abreu would follow Dewease closely around the Speed Palace, just biding his time before deciding to make a pass, while Stutts would get around Rahmer to get back into the podium.

With 36 laps remaining in the race, Abreu would work around the outside of Dewease in turns 3 and 4 to take the race lead and would continue to lead until the scheduled break at the halfway point of the race with 25 laps remaining.

Crews would go to work on the race cars, and the general consensus amongst the teams was that tire wear would be the name of the game to win the famed Port Royal Speedway race.

It proved to be just that over the next 25 laps as Abreu would lead the entire 2nd half of the event, managing his tires well, and picking up his first win at Port Royal Speedway during the historic Tuscarora 50.

The race paid $58,500 to Abreu as he was the Durst Dice Roll driver of the night after the fan of the night rolled a 3 in victory lane before the A-main event.

"I knew it was a little aggressive on tires," explained Aberu in victory lane describing the race. "I was just really trying to be disciplined with lapped traffic and my foot on the throttle pedal and just not overdriving the entry of the corners and letting that tire slip at all."

Stutts and Macri would round out the top 3 in the A-main event.

Dominick Melair would lead all 15 laps as a part of the Non-qualifiers race and locked himself into the 2025 58th Annual Tuscarora 50.

The 2024 season has come to a close with the conclusion of the Tuscarora 50 at Port Royal Speedway. The speedway team thanks all the fans for their continued support throughout the 2024 season, and look forward to putting on a great season in 2025.

Reutzel Picks Up First National Series Win Since 2021, Lee Wins Renninger Memorial, Mike Wagner and Dylan Yoder Win Championships

Article Credit: Brad Strawser

Port Royal, PA -- July 30th, 2021 was the last time that Aaron Reutzel was able to pick up a win against a national touring series, and he was able to put that drought to an end on Friday night's Night Before the 50 at Port Royal Speedway against Kubota High Limit Racing.

2023's winner of the Tuscarora 50 Brian Brown and 2022's winner Anthony Macri would make up the front row for the 25-lap A-main event.

Brown would take the early lead over the first 2 laps, but Reutzel would get by him off of turn 2 and would begin to run away with the lead.

With 11 laps remaining, Logan Wagner was charging through the field and was up into 3rd from his original 6th starting spot. While running the topside of turns 1 and 2, Wagner jumped the cushion and rode on two wheels against the outside wheel. When the 69K returned all four tires to the track, the front end was broken on the 5-time track champions ride and would end his night.

The restart would see Macri go to battle with Justin Whittall for the runner-up while Reutzel would again begin to open up his lead.

2 laps after the restart, Macri would face the same fate as Logan Wagner, except he would go flipping down the back straightaway ending his night.

Reutzel would restart with the lead and 9 laps remaining and would hold on for his first Kubota High Limit Racing win.

"It's been a while since I've won on a big stage," said Reutzel in victory lane. "This place is so much fun. There's no other place like it in the country. I love this place."

Reutzel has locked himself in to Saturday's A-main event that pays $2,000 to start and $57,000 to win.

Justin Whittall and Chase Dietz would round out the top 3.

With Logan Wagner not being able to finish the A-main, Mike Wagner would claim the 2024 track championship making it the 3rd in his career.

In Selinsgrove Ford super late model competition, the Butch Renninger Memorial would take the stage with the winner's share increasing to $8,333 to win courtesy of Fleet Reps.

Kyle Lee would start on the pole and lead all 33 laps on the way to victory lane.

He would face a late challenge as Mason Ziegler, who started in 6th would look to run him down in lapped traffic, but Lee was able to navigate around the slower cars to give himself enough of a gap to pick up his first Renninger Memorial of his career and his 3rd career win at Port Royal Speedway.

Ziegler would finish in 2nd and Hayes Mattern would round out the podium.

Dylan Yoder and Rick Eckert would go into the A-main only separated by 25 points in the points championship.

Just 8 laps in to the 33 lap feature event, the 0 of Rick Eckert would break down on the back straightaway and would be unable to finish the event which would allow Dylan Yoder to claim his 3rd track championship in just 6 years.

Port Royal Speedway and Kubota High Limit Racing will be back in competition on Saturday for the 57th Annual Tuscarora 50 presented by Packer's Concessions and Ramsey's Car Wash.

Brad Sweet Puts Money Where His Mouth Is, Wins Night 1 of Tuscarora 50 Week; Drew Young Picks up Career 2nd Port Royal 305 Win

Article Credit: Brad Strawser

Port Royal, PA -- September 5, 2024 -- Leading into the night, social media was a stir as a quote from Brad Sweet circulated. "It's really fun to go into Pennsylvania...take their money and talk a little smack," said Sweet in an interview with FloRacing. He backed up that statement on Thursday night by picking up the win and securing himself a starting spot in Saturday's 57th Annual Tuscarora 50.

Sweet rolled off the A-main in the 5th starting spot while Anthony Macri and Rico Abreu would be the pair on the front row.

Aberu and Macri would trade sliders over the opening 2 laps, but Macri would bang the boards a bit too hard off of turn 2 giving Aberu a bit of a gap to lead the next handful of laps.

Macri would battle with Sweet with 16 laps remaining for the runner-up position, but Sweet would pull off the pass in turn 1, take the slider line away in turn 3, and set his sights on Rico Abreu for the lead.

Rico would continue to lead into the waning laps of the race and in lapped traffic, "The Big Cat" of Brad Sweet would begin to close the gap and look to make his move.

With 8 laps remaining, Sweet would slide in front of Aberu for the lead and attempt to run away and hide in the slower traffic.

With 2 laps to go and slower traffic in front of Sweet, Aberu was able to close the gap to just under 5-tenths of a second, but wasn't able to fully reel him in, and Brad Sweet would claim his first victory at Port Royal Speedway since 2015 and his first win with Kubota High Limit Racing since May 16th.

The win was also worth an extra $5,000 with it being split with the Durst Dice Roll fan of the night Brock Fisher from Huntingdon, PA. Brad Sweet was selected as the Durst Dice Roll driver before the A-main when Fisher rolled the dice in victory lane to show a 5, meaning that Brad Sweet coming from the 5th starting spot would give $5,000 to be split between the driver and the fan.

Rico Abreu and Anthony Macri would round out the podium on the night.

In Penns Valley Meat Market 305 sprint car competition, Drew Young would utilize a late race restart to get by Ken Duke Jr. and pick up his 2nd career win at Port Royal Speedway.

Ken Duke Jr. would lead the opening lap of the 20-lap A-main event. He would have comfortable leads throughout the feature event, having a lead as large as 3-plus seconds during green flag racing.

A restart with 6 laps remaining would put Young on the tail tank of Duke Jr. and Young did not let the leader out of his sights.

Young would follow Duke for the first two laps coming out of the caution and would look to make his move with 5 laps remaining on the bottom side of turn 1.

He would slide in front of Duke Jr. and the two would battle side-by-side until there were just 2 laps remaining. When the crossed flags were shown by the flagman, Drew Young began to grow his lead and would hold on to win the final 305 sprint car race of the 2024 season at Port Royal Speedway.

Ken Duke Jr. and Logan Spahr would round out the top 3.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action on Friday night for The Night Before the 50 with Kubota High Limit Racing and the Selinsgrove Ford super late models as they race their portion of the Butch Renninger Memorial race paying $8,333 to win as the whole night is presented by Fleet Reps.

Logan Wagner Claims 5th win in 2024

Port Royal, PA - Labor Day racing can always prove tricky on a daylight surface, but Logan Wagner was able to find his way around the Speed Palace for 25 laps to claim his 5th victory of the year and his first Labor Day Classic title.

The town of Port Royal was challenged through the week with over 7 inches of rainfall over a short 4 hour period on Thursday night that caused flash flooding throughout the county. Many local families were affected and the track itself was no exception. Flooding throughout the grounds, and onto the track as well as humid temperatures the following day made it difficult for the Port Royal Speedway team to get the track in top shape.

Once the Weikert Livestock 410 sprint cars finally rolled onto the track Monday afternoon, the teams were faced with a tricky surface that they weren't often accustomed to.

Logan Wagner and Danny Dietrich would make up the front row of the 25 lap A-main event with Wagner taking the early advantage.

Dietrich would trail Wagner for the opening 10 laps, with Dietrich closing the gap in lap traffic. With 15 laps remaining however, Dietrich would succumb to a flat right rear tire brining out the caution flag and cutting the tension in the battle for the lead.

Wagner, in clean air, would wire the field the rest of the way to pick up his 5th win at Port Royal in 2024 and pocketed $7,300 courtesy of Foss Jewelers of Lewistown.

In Zimmerman Truck Repair Limited Late Model competition, Trent Brenneman was able to lead from flag to flag to claim his first Butch Renninger Memorial title as well as his first Port Royal Speedway track championship.

"I don't know what the future holds as life seems to get busier outside of racing," said Brenneman in victory lane, "I don't even have the words to describe it."

Justin Williamson would pick up the win in the FWD 4-cylinders A-main.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action for 3 days as a part of the Tuscarora 50 weekend with Kubota High Limit Racing on Thursday September 5th which will also feature Penns Valley Meat Market 305 sprint cars.

Saturday, September 21 PA KARTING NATIONALS

Abbottstown, PA (September 1, 2024) – In an action packed night of racing at Lincoln Speedway, Anthony Macri emerged victorious in the $20,000-to-win Kevin Gobrecht Memorial / Labor Day Duel, navigating intense competition and lapped traffic to take the checkered flag. It was Macri’s fifth win of the season at Lincoln and his second in a row.

Troy Wagaman led the field into turn 1, while Chase Dietz and Kyle Moody battled side-by-side for third, with Dietz quickly moving into the position and then overtaking TJ Stutts for second. Meanwhile, Macri began working on Moody for fourth. An early caution on lap 2 for a spin by Jonathan Preston set up the first restart with Wagaman, Dietz, Stutts, Moody, and Macri in the top five.

Wagaman got a strong jump on the restart, creating some distance between himself and Dietz, while Macri moved past Moody for fourth. Danny Dietrich soon joined the fight, taking fifth on lap 4. Macri, relentless in his pursuit, began challenging Stutts for third as Wagaman and Dietz continued to run the high side, as they closed in on lapped traffic.

On lap 9, lapped traffic came into play as Dietz started closing in on Wagaman. Macri climbed to third, with Stutts holding onto fourth as Dietrich applied pressure. Devon Borden joined the fray, creating a fierce three-car battle for the position. On lap 14, Dietrich pulled a slider to take fourth from Stutts, with Borden following suit a lap later.

As the halfway point approached, Macri closed in on the leaders, making it a three-car battle for the top spot in heavy traffic. On lap 17, Dietz attempted a slider in turns 1 and 2 but Wagaman managed to hold his lead. The action intensified when Dietz completed a second slider on the backstretch to take over the lead, with Macri following closely behind, dropping Wagaman to third.

At the halfway point, with 20 laps to go, all three, Dietz, Macri and Wagaman, remained in contention, with Dietrich and Borden closing in as well. Borden moved past Dietrich for fourth, but the two swapped positions back and forth in a thrilling duel. Macri, working the bottom, steadily reeled in Dietz as they navigated through traffic.

A caution on lap 29 for Freddie Rahmer’s spin in turn 4—which also collected Jordan Givler and Stutts—reset the field, with Macri having just edged past Dietz at the line before the yellow came out. On the restart, Macri led Dietz, Wagaman, Dietrich, and Borden. Dietz tried to make a move low on the restart, but Macri held his ground on the top side.

The fierce battle for fourth between Dietrich and Borden continued, with Borden finally securing the spot. Dietz, meanwhile, worked the bottom in an attempt to close in on Macri, getting a good run in turns 1 and 2, but Macri's high-side momentum proved too strong. With five laps to go, Borden overtook Wagaman for third at the line.

Lapped traffic loomed ahead of Macri with three laps remaining, but he maintained his composure, to secure a $20,000 payday. Dietz finished second, Borden crossed the line third, Wagaman was fourth and Dietrich completed the top five.

A heavy rain shower popped up on the radar forcing the postponement of the 358 sprint car feature to Saturday, September 14.

Lincoln Speedway is back in action on Saturday, September 7 with Superior Homes Night featuring the Late Models, Legends, Superior Homes Extreme Stocks and Flying Iron Limited Stocks. Racing is scheduled for 6PM.

Article Credit: Brad Strawser

August 30, 2024 -- Port Royal, PA -- The Port Royal Speedway team has made the unfortunate decision to cancel racing activities on Saturday August 31st due to heavy rain received in the borough and the damage that took place throughout the fairground.

The borough of Port Royal received over 8 inches of rain in a 4 hour period on Thursday evening, flooding many areas throughout the fairgrounds. Concessions stands, seating area, the tunnel to the infield, and other buildings throughout the grounds took on water and had the focus of the fair board throughout the day on Friday. The speedway team evaluated the racing surface and determined there would be no way the track could be properly prepared for racing on Saturday.

The scheduled Butch Renninger Memorial for the Selinsgrove Ford Super Late Models will run their portion of the event on Friday September 6th alongside Kubota High Limit Racing on The Night Before the 50.

The Zimmerman Truck Repair Limited Late Models will make up their portion of the event during Monday’s Labor Day Classic presented by Foss Jewelers Inc.

The Juniata County Agricultural Society, Juniata County Fair Board, and Port Royal Speedway team are hard at work to repair all the areas throughout the grounds to ensure racing activities continue throughout fair week and look to be back in action on Monday September 2nd for the Labor Day Classic.

Abbottstown, PA (August 24, 2024) –

Aaron Bollinger led the field into turn 1 using the top as the green flag waved, with Freddie Rahmer immediately challenging Anthony Macri for second. Macri made an aggressive move with a slide job for the lead, but chaos ensued when Chad Trout spun in turn 4, collecting Chase Dietz and Danny Dietrich, bringing out the caution on lap 1.

On the restart, Bollinger maintained the lead while Macri applied heavy pressure. Rahmer made his move, diving to the bottom of turn 3, but Macri attempted a slide job in turn 1, neither unable to complete the pass. As Bollinger pulled away, the top three—Bollinger, Macri, and Rahmer—began riding the high side around the 3/8-mile oval, approaching lapped traffic by lap 7. Bollinger dipped to the bottom of turns 1 and 2 as they navigated slower cars.

A yellow flag on lap 9 for a tangle between Kyle Moody and Kody Hartlaub reset the field. On the restart, Rahmer overtook Macri for second, while Matt Campbell reclaimed fourth from Kyle Reinhardt. A mishap saw Rahmer hit the wall on the backstretch, allowing Macri to slip back into second. As lapped traffic again became a factor for the leaders on lap 15, Bollinger squeezed between two lapped cars with Macri hot on his heels.

Campbell closed in on Rahmer for third, while Rahmer, Macri, and Bollinger battled in close quarters. Rahmer moved into second, taking a shot at the lead as Bollinger held his line, getting strong drives off the bottom of turn 2 while Rahmer attacked from the top. With five laps to go, lapped cars running side by side added to the intensity.

A final caution on lap 30 for Robbie Kendall’s spin in turn 4 set up a dramatic five-lap dash to the finish. Bollinger went to the bottom on the restart, with Rahmer to the outside, but Macri seized the moment, flying past Rahmer for second. He then launched a daring slide job on Bollinger in turn 1, bringing them side by side at the line—Bollinger barely holding the lead.

With just two laps to go, Macri made the decisive pass, surging ahead and securing a thrilling victory, adding another $7,300 to his growing collection of winnings. In addition to the winners share, Macri took home an extra $1,000 after securing the Dean’s Auto Plaza “Run the Table” bonus by setting quick time, winning his heat and scoring the feature win.

Preston Lattomus Wired Field in Non-Stop 358 Sprint Feature

Preston Lattomus led the field out of turn 2, with Wyatt Hinkle quickly moving into second and Logan Rumsey slotting into third. Rumsey and Hinkle battled side by side at the line, with Rumsey edging ahead to claim second. Behind them, Cody Fletcher held down fourth, while Ayden Hare rounded out the top five.

Lattomus wasted no time pulling away from the pack, building a commanding 3.3-second lead by the time he reached lapped traffic on lap 8. As Lattomus expertly navigated the slower cars, Dylan Norris began challenging Hare for a spot in the top five.

Despite Rumsey's efforts to close the gap, bringing the lead down to under two seconds with five laps remaining, Lattomus found clear track ahead with just two laps to go. He extended his lead once more to nearly three seconds, cruising to his first career 358 Sprint Car victory at Lincoln Speedway.

Lincoln Speedway is back in action on Saturday, August 31 with the $15,000 to win Kevin Gobrecht Memorial for the 410 Sprints along with the PASS/IMCA 305 Sprints. Then on Sunday, September 1 it is the $15,000 to win Labor Day Dual for the 410 Sprints with the 358 Sprint on the card as well.

Macri Scores Grove Gunn Memorial Cash For Fourth Win Of Season

Mitten and Jackson split sportsman mains

8/23/24

Mechanicsburg – Anthony Macri of Dillsburg scored his fourth Williams Grove Speedway sprint car win of the season on Friday night in the 42nd annual Jack Gunn Memorial, worth $8,000.

Macri took the lead from TJ Stutts on a lap 16 restart to get the win.

In the 20-lap winged super sportsman main it was Russ Mitten scoring the checkers while the wingless sportsman feature went to Tony Jackson.

Stutts started on the pole of the 30-lap Gunn Memorial and was trailed by Chase Dietz and Macri from the start.

Stutts had a lead of more than one second when the first caution flag of the race unfurled on the fourth lap.

Lap five saw the red flag appear for a hard frontstretch flip by Devon Borden who escaped injury.

Macri muscled around Dietz for second on the restart but was still over a second behind Stutts when the leader entered traffic on the 13th tour.

Traffic allowed Macri to close in on Stutts by lap 15 and make his first bid for the lead and win.

He got under Stutts and briefly took control in the third and fourth turns but Stutts turned the car off of the cushion to reclaim command at the line.

The pace was slowed again on lap 16 for a slowing Kyle Moody.

Macri promptly pounced when green replaced the yellow by diving to Suttts’ inside in the first corner to blast up off of the corners with the point.

And from there the field was left to race for second as Macri pulled away.

A final caution flag with four laps to go negated a near five second lead built by Macri who went uncontested on the restart and took the victory by 1.756 seconds.

It was the 10th overall win of his career at the oval.

Dietz followed Macri around Stutts to finish second as the early leader began to slip backward.

Freddie Rahmer was third followed by Cameron Smith and 14th starter Danny Dietrich who was the hard charger.

Sixth through 10th went to Stutts, Troy Wagaman Jr., Justin Whittall, Kyle Reinhardt and Kody Hartlaub.

Heats went to Rahmer, Stutts and Hartlaub with Lucas Wolfe taking the consolation race.

Wagaman set fast time in time trials with a lap of 16.806 seconds.

Mike Enders led the first five laps of the winged sportsman main before third starter Russ Mitten took the lead to drive off to the win.

Mitten withstood two restarts during the second half of the race to get the checkers by .992 seconds ahead of Enders, Kenny Edkin, Scott Dellinger and Matt Ondek.

Heats were taken by Troy Rhome, Chris Meleason and Mitten.

Tony Jackson wired the field for the win in the wingless 20-lap sportsman main.

Jay Fannasy came to second on lap five and began pressuring Jackson for the lead.

He got in front of Jackson briefly with eight laps to go only to see Jackson surge back into control.

Fannasy then lost the handle on his challenging racer and spun a lap later, taking the edge off of the final circuits.

Bill Brian Jr. finished second followed by Trent Yoder, Brian Nace and Craig Perigo.

Jackson set quick time in hot laps with a loop of 21.821 seconds.

Gunn’s Promotional Prowess Remembered At Williams Grove Friday

8/18/24

Mechanicsburg – For the 42nd season in a row, Williams Grove Speedway will honor one of the finest showman and promoters the East has ever known on Friday night when the York Building Products Jack Gunn Memorial for 410 sprint cars is contested.

First run in 1983, the Gunn Memorial honors late Williams Grove promoter Jack Gunn, a native of Hancock, Maryland.

The 2024 event will be the 42nd annual Gunn Memorial and the winner’s list is impressive to say the least.

Bobby Allen was the first winner in 1983 with additional names on the win list like Frankie Kerr, Jason Johnson, Lance Dewease, Greg Hodnett, Fred Rahmer, Daryn Pittman, Keith Kauffman and many others.

However no driver has claimed more Gunn Memorials over the years than the now retired Don Kreitz Jr.

Jack Gunn was a Hall of Fame Promoter who heralded the speedway as promoter from 1967 until his untimely death from cancer at the age of 48 in 1980.

He began working at the track during the early 1960s as an announcer and honed his skill on the microphone while eventually relaying his talents into the oval’s captain.

It was during his tenure at the helm of Williams Grove Speedway that Gunn rose to prominence on the local and national scene and he took the facility with him.

During his career at Williams Grove, Gunn also promoted with much success at other area tracks.

Gunn’s mark on both Williams Grove and the region itself was to help raise sprint car racing to not only a weekly division but a premiere weekly headline division at that.

With his hand guiding them, Gunn first lured and then brought the likes of Jan Opperman, Bobby Allen, Steve Smith and more to the area to race, make a living and ultimately to make a home in this rich racing region.

Gunn was feted nationally as 1979 Promoter of the Year.

While at the top of his game, he not only stood at the helm at both Williams Grove and Selinsgrove Speedways, but he was also doing the job at Hagerstown, (Maryland) and Penn National Speedways.

In his day, Jack Gunn was known as the most powerful promoter in the East.

And it is that reputation and skill that Williams Grove Speedway will honor yet again this week with the running of the Jack Gunn Memorial.

Gates will open at 5:30 pm with action getting underway at 7:30 pm.

Adult general admission is set at $25 with youth ages 13 - 20 admitted for just $10. Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Abbottstown, PA (August 17, 2024) – Matt Campbell gave it everything he had on Saturday night to win the Barry Skelly Memorial. Campbell, who started the 30-lap feature in sixth, raced his way up to second with 10 laps to go, leaving him 10 laps to erase Chris Arnold’s 4.6-second lead. With five laps to go, as Campbell was reeling Arnold in, smoke started billowing from the #X machine, but Matt didn’t let it slow him down. With three laps to go Campbell was all over Arnold, but would have to wait until the last corner of the last lap to make the pass for the lead. The $6,000 win was Campbell’s second at the track this season as he is in the hunt for the points title with Troy Wagaman and Freddie Rahmer.

Chris Arnold and Tim Glatfelter shared the front row for the drop of the green and current point leader, Troy Wagaman started dead last. Arnold and Glatfelter drag-raced into turn 1 as a massive crash developed behind them. JJ Loss flipped down the front stretch and his wing got stuck in the fence with the car landing on the track. Kyle Keen and Glenndon Forsythe got caught up in the melee as well, ending all three of their nights. Four other cars received damage on the start and headed to the pits under red, Troy Wagaman, Kody Hartlaub, Aaron Bollinger, and Jeff Rohrbaugh. Rohrbaugh was the only one not to rejoin the field for the restart.

The field lined up for a complete restart. This time the yellow came out when Chad Trout sat on the front stretch with a broken front end. After two restarts 14 of the original 19 cars lined up for the third try to get the feature started. The third time proved to be the charm with Arnold holding a slight advantage over Glatfelter as they raced into turn 1. Brandon Rahmer got under Brett Strickler to move into fourth and Campbell wasn’t far behind, getting by Strickler for fifth.

Arnold was pulling away from the field and had a straightway lead as Campbell was closing in on Brandon to challenge for fourth. Arnold had a 4-second lead and was closing in on lapped traffic with 10 laps down. The yellow flag came out on lap 11 when Hartlaub fell off the pace and came to a stop on the front stretch.

With Arnold’s 3.4 second lead erased, Glatfelter, Hivner, Rahmer and Campbell lined up behind him for the restart. Hivner started falling back which allowed Campbell to move up to fourth, Brandon into third and Freddie Rahmer made his way into the top five.

Campbell got by Brandon for third coming off turn 2 to take the spot on lap 17. Campbell looked to make quick work of Glatfelter but it took four laps for Matt to find a way around Glatfelter.

Arnold had an impressive lead of 4.6 seconds with 10 laps to go. The crowd watched Campbell use the last 10 laps to reel in Arnold, half of them with smoke coming from the car. As Campbell made the pass for the lead coming out of turn 4 on the last lap, fans were on their feet to witness the finish.

In the end Campbell crossed the line .207 seconds ahead of Arnold. Freddie Rahmer finished third and Glatfelter was fourth. Brandon Rahmer completed the top five. Despite starting last and having to go to the pits during the initial red flag to change a top wing, Troy Wagaman earned hard charger honors with a seventh place finish.

Andy Best Wires 358 Sprint Field for Win

Andy Best beat pole-sitter Cameron Merriman to the first turn to take the lead at the start of the 20-lap feature and never looked back.

As Best took the top spot with Merriman in tow, Preston Lattomus and Jake Galloway were battling for third. Galloway had the spot when the red flag came out on lap 4 for Ayden Hare.

Best led Merriman, Galloway, Lattomus and Logan Rumsey on the restart. Lattomus got by Galloway to take third and then Rumsey followed sending Jake back to fifth. Steve Owings worked his way into the top five from his twelfth place starting spot after getting by Galloway on lap 8.

Cody Fletcher slowed to a stop in turn 4 bringing out the yellow on lap 9. The top five for the restart were Best, Merriman, Lattomus, Rumsey and Owings. Lattomus was working on Merriman for second when the yellow came out again on lap 11. This time it was for Cole Knopp who sat facing the wrong way in turn 4.

Merriman tried the bottom on the restart which left the top open for Lattomus. Preston gave it everything he had, but hopped the cushion in turn 4 allowing both Owings and Rumsey to get by, sending Lattomus back to fifth.

Best was pulling away from the field with five laps to go when the yellow came out one final time for Josh Harner and Olivia Thayer.

The top five for the final restart were Best, Merriman, Owings, Rumsey and Lattomus. Merriman left the top open for Owings on the restart and Owings took advantage and had second with two laps to go.

Best crossed the line 1.054 seconds ahead of Owings, who earned the hard charger bonus. Merriman finished third and Rumsey was fourth. Lattomus completed the top five.

Lincoln Speedway is back in action on Saturday, August 24 with the Kramer Klash presented by HVAC Distributors: $7,300 to win for the 410 Sprints [TT] and 358 Sprints. Racing is scheduled for 7PM with pit gates opening at 4:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 5PM.

Dreams Do Come True: Robbie Kendall and Mike Wagner Pick Up Living Legends Dream Race Checks, Bruno Wins First Career USAC East Coast Wingless Race

Port Royal, PA -- August 18, 2024 -- The Living Legends Dream Race at Port Royal Speedway always brings a new storyline into the mix for the year. This year, it saw Mike Wagner break a 3 year winless streak, and Robbie Kendall pick up his first career 410 win at Port Royal Speedway.

Robbie Kendall would start on the front row of the first 25-lap A-main event alongside Anthony Macri with the latter taking the early race lead.

Macri would lead the opening 8 laps with Kendall in a further 2nd place position when the caution lights would come on for debris on the back straightaway. The caution would be called because the hood off of the 39M would blow off of his car and onto the racing surface.

This dilemma caused Macri to go to the pit area due to Port Royal Speedway rules not allowing for a driver to compete without the engine completely covered. This would give Kendall his first lead of the race.

Kendall would lead for a lap before Logan Wagner would overtake him on a restart with 16 laps remaining in the first corner of the race track.

Wagner, who was looking to pick up his 5th win of the season and his 4th in a row at Port Royal, would continue to lead for the next 13 laps. When coming down the front stretch at the 3 lap to go mark, Wagner would begin to lose power as he had run out of fuel.

Wagner would limp around the track until he drew the caution flag with 2 laps remaining which would bring out an open red flag for the field to refuel their sprint cars.

Kendall would inherit the lead once again, now with just 2 laps remaining and Justin Whittall right on his tail.

Whittall would pull alongside Kendall in both sets of corners over the final two laps, but couldn't mount enough speed to make the pass and Kendall would hold on for his first career win at Port Royal Speedway worth $12,500.

"We got a little lucky there with those two cars falling out," said Kendall on the front stretch between A-mains. "This is a place I always wanted to win at. I'm thankful I'm even racing."

During the break between the features, Kendall would draw a 6 pill to set the invert for the 2nd 25-lap A-main meaning Devon Borden and Mike Wagner would make up the front row with Kendall starting in 6th.

Wagner would get out to the lead off of the initial start and while fighting off restart challenges would lead all 25-laps in the 2nd feature event.

With 2 laps to go, he would start to run out of fuel to allow Justin Whittall to begin to close the nearly 2-second gap between the top two cars, but Wagner's machine would hold enough power to get him back to victory lane for the first time in 3 years.

"I'm glad to win. I think we should be winning more often, but we've been getting faster here lately so hopefully it will continue," said Wagner in victory lane following his $12,500 win.

Devon Borden and Logan Wagner would pick up Valley Supply hard charger honors during the two A-mains.

Kody Lehman and Dominic Melair would have the luck of the draw in winning the J&S Classics Warrior award in their respective feature events.

In USAC East Coast wingless sprint car competition, Christian Bruno would start on the front row and lead all 20 laps to claim victory for the first time in his career.

"I've always felt pretty comfortable here," Bruno explained in victory lane, "we had a good race the last time we were here. I felt like our car was just so good tonight."

Port Royal Speedway will be back in competition on August 23rd with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series paying $10,000 to win, the Zimmerman Truck Repair Limited Late Models paying $6,000 to win and a $17,000 total purse, and the Mid-Atlantic Modifieds paying $5,000 to win.

Chases Win Chases To Checkers At Williams Grove

Dietz and Gutshall score sprint wins

8/2/24

Mechanicsburg – Chase Dietz and Chase Gutshall won the sprint car races at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night.

Dietz of York scored in the 410 sprint car main while Gutshall of Middletown won the 358 sprint cars.

Dietz would end up wiring the field from the pole for the $5,000 victory in the 25-lap 410 sprint main.

The win was the fourth of his career at the oval.

Dietz had just entered traffic with the lead when the only caution flag of the race appeared on lap eight for a spun Anthony Macri while at the same time Lance Dewease slowed and pulled pitside.

The restart saw Steve Buckwalter and TJ Stutts line up in second and third but fail to challenge.

Dietz entered traffic again with seven laps to go and began moving through the field at will.

Buckwalter failed to close on the leader and instead finished 1.559 seconds behind at the finish.

Stutts was third and Cameron Smith was fourth.

After starting 18th, Danny Dietrich made the race exciting at the finish as he raced with point leader Freddie Rahmer for the fifth spot.

On the final lap as the pair sped out of turn four for the finish, Dietrich nipped Rahmer at the line for the spot.

Rahmer was sixth followed by Troy Wagaman Jr., Justin Whittall, Matt Campbell and Devon Borden.

Heats went to Dietz, Wagaman and Dewease with Matt Campbell scoring the consolation race.

Stutts set quick time in hot laps with a lap of 17.064 seconds.

Like his counterpart, Chase Gutshall would wire the field in the 20-lap 358 sprint car main.

After two tries at an initial start, Gutshall took control over Dwight Leppo.

But Leppo would slow to a stop at the halfway point, handing second to Scott Fisher with Frankie Herr racing third.

No one was able to challenge Gutshall during the second half of the race as he drove uncontested to the win.

Herr got by Fisher for second on lap 13.

Logan Rumsey rode home third followed by Cody Fletcher and Fisher.

Sixth through 10th went to Chris Frank, Cole Young, Doug Hammaker, Derek Locke and Preston Lattomus.

Heats went to Gutshall, Leppo and Cole Knopp.

Stutts Continues Career Season With Third Williams Grove Sprint Win

Lattomus gets first in 358 sprints

8/2/24

Mechanicsburg – TJ Stutts continued the season of his career at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night by scoring his third sprint car win of the season.

Last week the Liverpool driver bested the World of Outlaws on Friday night and this week Stutts chalked up a last lap pass on race-long leader Jake Karklin to net the win and a $500 bonus from WC Eshenaur and Sons for making the winning move on the final circuit.

In the 358 sprint main, Preston Lattomus held on to win his first-ever checkers at the track after wiring the field.

Karklin and Mike Walter II., started on the front row of the 25-lap Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint main with Stutts beginning in the fifth position.

The initial start of the feature was called back for a false start before Karlin blasted into control over Walter, Kody Hartlaub and Jeff Halligan.

Karklin entered the rear of the field on the sixth tour and began lapping cars on the high side while Walter tried keeping pace.

But disaster struck on lap nine when Walter vaulted into the outside turn one rail before flipping down onto the track, bringing out the red flag.

The stoppage wiped out a 1.3 second lead that Karklin had built over the field.

Halligan was also involved, forcing him to the rear for the restart while placing Hartlaub and Freddie Rahmer in second and third.

Two laps later Karklin saw a 1.5 second lead wiped out by a caution flag before another yellow bunched the field on lap 12.

The restart on lap 12 saw the front of the field shake up dramatically when Hartlaub went for a low move on Karklin in the first corner.

However the East Berlin driver nearly spun the car in the middle of the first corner while almost collecting Rahmer, who had to get hard on the binders.

That’s when Stutts pounced to move from fourth to second by blasting under the faltering pair in turn two.

Karklin just kept expanding his lead as the race worked into the second half, owning a 2.9 second lead with 10 to go and a 3.1 second lead a lap later.

And while the leader did make some mistakes on the cushion as he paced the field, he did maintain his lead until three laps to go.

It was then that Karklin’s car began to sputter as he circled the track, seemingly running out of fuel.

The struggling leader then dropped off of the cushion while working the car down low in an effort to make it to the finish but Stutts took advantage to snare the lead on the final lap and record his fourth career 410 sprint car victory at Williams Grove Speedway, worth $5,000.

Karklin would come up light on weight in post race inspection and be credited with 14th.

Rahmer ended up second followed by Troy Wagaman Jr., Matt Campbell and Cameron Smith.

Sixth through 10th went to Halligan, Ryan Taylor, Austin Bishop, Mike Thompson and Bryn Gohn, who was the PA Dyno Hard Charger.

Heats went to Halligan, Stutts and Wagaman Jr.

Stutts set fast time in warm-ups with a lap of 17.533 seconds.

Lattomus started on the pole of the 25-lap Summer Series main for 358 sprints and would end up leading the whole way for the victory.

Derek Locke raced into second on the sixth tour but failed to challenge Lattomus for control.

The first and only caution flag of the race unfurled on the final lap finding 19th starter Seth Schnoke restarting third after blasting through the field.

Schnoke threatened to spoil the party for Lattomus when he drove by Locke on the restart and got alongside the leader in the final corner but Lattomus was able to hold off the charge and take the exciting win by .202 seconds.

Schnoke settled for second followed by Locke, Dylan Norris and Chase Gutshall.

Sixth through 10th went to Cole Young, Steve Owings, Austin Reed, Frankie Herr and Logan Rumsey.

Heats went to Tyler Rutherford, Cole Young and Cody Fletcher with Schnoke taking the consolation race.

Feature Finish:

8/2/24

410 sprints, 2 laps: 1. TJ Stutts, 2. Freddie Rahmer, 3. Troy Wagaman Jr., 4. Matt Campbell, 5. Cameron Smith, 6. Jeff Halligan, 7. Ryan Taylor, 8. Austin Bishop, 9. Mike Thompson, 10. Bryn Gohn, 11. Nash Ely, 12. Kody Hartlaub, 13. Todd Zinn, 14. Jake Karklin, 15. Derek Hauck, 16. Kyle Keen, 17. Rick Dieva, 18. Ricky Peterson Jr., 19. Matt Miller, 20. Mike Walter II., 21. Troy Fraker, 22.

David Gravel Scores 100th Outlaws Win In Williams Grove Summer Nationals

Connecticut pilot scores $20,000 with impressive drive

7/27/24

Mechanicsburg – David Gravel scored his 100th career World of Outlaws sprint car win in the 23rd running of the C & D Rigging Summer Nationals at Williams Grove Speedway on Saturday night.

Gravel’s ninth oval win and second in the Summer Nationals was worth $20,000.

The victory has placed Gravel among an elite group of just eight outlaws drivers in history that have reached the century win mark with the circuit to include Steve Kinser, Mark Kinser, Donny Schatz, Doug Wolfgang, Sammy Swindell, Danny Lasoski and Joey Saldana.

Gravel’s victory was hard-fought as he contended with both Daryn Pittman and Donny Schatz for the checkers.

In fact, the 30-lap main saw all three men lead the event at one point.

Gravel started fourth in the feature with Schatz and Pittman sharing the front row for the green flag.

Schatz took the lead at the start with Pittman applying pressure while Gravel came to third.

Pittman dogged Schatz for control until lap nine when he briefly pulled the trigger for control with an inside move in the third and fourth corner.

But Pittman’s run in front was short lived as Schatz turned the car to reclaim the top spot as the pair raced back to the stripe.

The move by Pittman allowed Gravel to hone in for the second spot, which he took with an outside blast in the fourth turn on lap 11.

Gravel was surging by that point as the front trio began what was becoming a torrid battle with traffic in play.

It was lap 13 when Gravel pushed his No. 2 low in the second corner to get underneath Schatz and take command for the first time however Schatz came right back on the Connecticut pilot.

He completed a run through the middle groove in turns three and four on lap 14 to again go out front as he, Gravel and Pittman raced under a blanket for the lead and win.

But just then an untimely caution broke up the tension when Sheldon Haudenschild hit the outside wall and spun on the frontstretch before falling back in line.

Schatz chose the inside lane for the double file restart and held Gravel off when action resumed.

However Gravel was not to be denied as he used a head of steam on the cushion in turn four to complete a run down the frontchute and into the first turn that would push him back out front for good on lap 19.

Third starter Brent Marks went outside of Pittman for third with five laps to go and got the spot just before the final caution flag of the race unfurled.

Schatz got to Gravel’s inside on the restart, proving that he still wasn’t out of the event and returned to repeat the feat in the first turn the next time around but after that attempt Gravel got away for the win, taking the checkered flag by .495 seconds.

In victory lane Gravel noted that he felt he beat the three best cars to race at Williams Grove in the last 10 years in the form of Schatz, Marks and the Don Kreitz No. 69K raced by Pittman.

Schatz, Marks, Pittman and Justin Peck completed the top-five finishers.

Sixth through 10th went to Gio Scelzi, Carson Macedo, Lance Dewease, Haudenschild and Danny Dietrich.

Heats went to Marks, Gravel, Macedo and Pittman with Schatz earning the feature pole by winning the dash.

Anthony Macri scored the B Main.

Marks set fast time with a lap of 17.034 seconds.

Feature Finish:

7/26/24

410 sprints, 30 laps: 1. David Gravel, 2. Donny Schatz, 3. Brent Marks, 4. Daryn Pittman, 5. Justin Peck,6. Gio Scelzi, 7. Carson Macedo, 8. Lance Dewease, 9. Sheldon Haudenschild, 10.

Williams Grove Summer Nationals Celebrates 23rd Running This Weekend

7/21/24

Mechanicsburg – The C & D Rigging Summer Nationals at Williams Grove Speedway, coming up this Friday and Saturday, July 26 and 27, will celebrate its 23rd running this week.

The first edition of the current Summer Nationals was a three-day event back in 2002 with a pair of preliminary mains taken by Danny Lasoski and Joey Saldana while local driver Greg Hodentt upended the World of Outlaws for the big score on Saturday driving for the Apple Motorsports stables.

At the time, the three-day World of Outlaws show at Williams Grove was billed as the first of its kind since only one other previous three-day stand at the track in history, also billed as a Summer Nationals, took place in August 1984 when Sammy Swindell, Brad Doty and Steve Kinser took wins.

World of Outlaws kingpin Donny Schatz took two of three at the track in 2003 with Don Kreitz Jr. taking a preliminary night.

The 2004 version saw Lance Dewease and Lasoski split a pair of mains.

Another three-day format in 2005 saw Jason Johnson score a popular victory for local owners Jim and Sandy Kline while Paul McMahan scored another prelim with track powerhouse Fred Rahmer taking a raucous victory in the Saturday finale.

In 2006 outlaws invaders Terry McCarl, Craig Dollansky and Dary Pittman swept the three-day affair.

Donny Schatz bookended the three-day event with wins in 2007 while local Brian Leppo of Spring Grove was sandwiched in the middle with a win aboard the Swope No. 71 machine.

Becoming a two-day event in 2008, outlaws Donny Schatz and Daryn Pittman swept the shows but the following year belonged to local drivers Greg Hodnett in the Kline No. 22 and Cody Darrah with Darrah taking the win in a make-up feature held during National Open weekend in October.

The 2010 version was all Pennsylvania Posse as Lance Dewease took night one aboard the Don Owens No. 30C and Hodnett returning for another win for the Kline team.

Hodnett struck again in 2011, this time in the Trone Special No. 39, along with outlaw driver Jason Meyers.

Just one show was completed in 2012 with Darrah back for another win, this time aboard an outlaws mount owned by Kasey Kahne.

Again, one show was completed in 2013 with Schatz again a victor but the pendulum swung the other way again in 2014 when locals Hodnett and Dewease swept the two-day weekend show with Hodnett now driving for Michael Heffner and Dewease aboard the Conduit Connections No. 14.

The locals made it back-to-back sweeps of the event in 2015 when Danny Dietrich and Stevie Smith trounced the outlaws.

Pittman was back for a win in 2016 with Dewease, now aboard the Kreitz No. 69K, taking the Saturday finale.

Local driver Brock Zearfoss piloted the Long No. 58 to the win on night one in 2017 while Greg Hodnett ended up scoring the second feature aboard the Heffner mount albeit as a make up main in late September.

Only the first night was completed in 2018 with Dewease returning for a victory, still in the 69K.

The 2019 Summer Nationals saw Tim Shaffer pilot the Rudzik No. 49 to the opening night win while Schatz got back to Summer Nationals victory for the first time since 2013.

Shane Stewart fended off Anthony Macri to win opening night in 2020 while David Gravel dominated on Saturday to lead flag to flag.

In 2021 it was Sheldon Haudenschild and Brent Marks splitting Summer Nationals laurels with Marks scoring the big 20K Saturday finale.

Haudenschild’s Friday win was the first of his career at Williams Grove.

Dewease was back again for a Friday victory in the 69K in 2022 while Saturday’s big money win went to outlaws champion Brad Sweet for his elusive first-ever Williams Grove victory.

Last year, outlaws driver Logan Schuchart of nearby Hanover scored one that kept the local fans happy on Friday before independent California driver Rico Abreu walked off with the $20,000 Saturday loot to record his first-ever oval checkers.

Adult general admission for Friday night is $35 with students ages 13-20 admitted for just $15.

Saturday adult general admission is $40 with students ages 13 – 20 priced at $20.

Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

Logan Wagner Wins 3rd Straight, Sweigart Wins 2nd RaceSaver Challenge, Yoder Wins Wingless Sportsman

Port Royal, PA - Logan Wagner charged from the outside of row 3 to the front to claim his 3rd straight Weikert's Livestock 410 sprint car win and his 4th win this season.

Gerard McIntyre and Blane Heimbach would make up the front row of the A-main event, and it would be Heimbach who would lead the opening circuit of the race.

McIntyre would overtake the driver out of Selinsgrove on the 2nd lap though and would momentarily pull away over the next 10 laps but would have plenty of battles going on behind him.

Logan Wagner would work his way up through the top 5 over the next 10 laps and would put a slider on McIntyre going into turn 1 with 14 laps remaining to take over the lead.

Wagner once in front would take on some wing damage to right-hand side of the top wing, bending it back just a touch, but it wouldn't affect The Pilot from getting back to victory lane.

"It didn't help me," said Wagner in victory lane. "I thought we were a little bit too loose especially on exit and didn't really know what happened and it makes sense now. It's just a testament to the Krietz crew to how good the car is."

A restart with 3 laps to go following a caution for Austin Bishop would give McIntyre one last shot at the lead. He would try to make a move on the bottom side of the speedway in turns 1 and 2 but left enough room for the 5 time track champion to get back by on the top side and hold on for the win.

Gerard McIntyre would finish in the 2nd spot and Blane Heimbach would round out the podium.

Aaron Ott would win the Valley Supply Hard Charger award worth $500 for going +7 on the night after starting in 20th and finishing in 13th.

Jake Waters would take home the $1000 courtesy of J&S Classics for the Warrior Award after the 19 pill was drawn by Wagner in victory lane.

In Penns Valley Meat Market RaceSaver Sprint car competition, Nick Sweigart would start on the front row of the 25-lap A-main and would lead all 25 circuits for the $950 win in the Keystone RaceSaver Challenge and would tally his 2nd win of this event in his career.

Sweigart would cut through lapped traffic throughout the event with Mifflintown driver Owen Dimm within a second margin of him throughout the event, but Dimm would never get close enough to make a move for the win.

"Starting position made everything there," said Sweigart in victory lane. "If we would've started deeper, I don't think that would've happened. Most importantly, I don't know that I'm doing this next year so this means that much more to me."

Owen Dimm and Logan Spahr would round out the top 3 in the A-main, and Zach Rhoades would win the Penns Valley Meat Market hard charger award for going from 21st to 13th.

The wingless sportsman A-main was dominated by Trent Yoder after he took the lead with 14 laps remaining.

Brett Perigo and Trent Yoder made up the front row of the feature event and Perigo led the opening 6 laps.

Yoder, though, had a big charge down the front stretch heading into turn 1 and would pull off a big slider to put himself in front of Perigo.

Perigo would try to battle back in turns 3 and 4 with the top 2 cars making contact between the nose and tail of the two cars, but both were able to stay straight.

Abbottstown, PA (July 13, 2024) – Aaron Bollinger rolled the bottom of the 3/8-mile oval on Saturday night to score his second career 410 victory. Saturday’s win came 1,134 days after his first triumph which was on June 5, 2021 at Lincoln Speedway. The Fallen Firefighters / “Guise-Little Memorial” paid $6,000 to win along with high payouts throughout the field and additional bonus money.

Pole-sitter Kody Hartlaub paced the field along side Chad Trout for the start of the 36-lap feature. Hartlaub and Trout battled into turn 1 with Hartlaub coming out with the lead. Freddie Rahmer made his way from sixth to third, getting a solid start. Rahmer was closing in on Trout and pulled a slider in turns 1 and 2 and took second on lap 6. Matt Campbell got by Trout on the next lap to take third. Rahmer reeled in Hartlaub as they closed in on the tail end of the field. Rahmer took the lead from Hartlaub at the line on lap 8 with lapped traffic coming into play right away. Campbell wasn’t far behind and took second from Kody.

Devon Borden sat sideways in turn 2 bringing out the caution on lap 9. Rahmer led Campbell, Hartlaub, Trout and Troy Wagaman on the restart. Rahmer had a solid restart as Hartlaub, Trout and Wagaman battled for position. Wagaman was on the move and got by Trout and Hartlaub to get into third. That left Hartlaub and Trout to fend off Aaron Bollinger.

After another caution, Rahmer got another good restart and Bollinger moved into fourth after getting by both Trout and Hartlaub coming off turn 2. As Wagaman and Campbell battled for second the yellow came out again for Michael Millard who sat in the bottom of turns 3 and 4.

Wagaman looked to the bottom to get under Campbell on the restart but did not make the pass. Bollinger was right there to challenge Wagaman for third. Wagaman moved down to block Bollinger’s line.

Rahmer caught lapped traffic on lap 23 which helped Campbell reel in Rahmer. Campbell got into the back of a slower car but still held on to second. The caution came out for the slower car of Travis Scott. This time Campbell got a better restart and the bottom was working for him as Rahmer stuck to the top. Bollinger also found the bottom and was reeling in both of the leaders. Rahmer was able to keep his momentum going around the top but Campbell was working the bottom and the two were wheel to wheel for the lead coming out turn 2 when the caution came out on lap 31, putting a halt to an epic battle.

Rahmer, Campbell, Bollinger, Wagaman and Hartlaub were the top five for the restart with five laps to go. Rahmer went to the bottom on the restart to block Campbell. Bollinger got under Campbell for second and was on Rahmer’s tail as the laps wound down. Bollinger took the lead with two laps to go.

Bollinger rolled the bottom and got to the line 1.908 seconds ahead of Rahmer for the win. Campbell was third and Wagaman finished fourth. Tyler Ross, the hard charger of the race, drove from his 12th starting spot to finish fifth.

Frankie Herr Wins 358 Sprint Feature

Pole-sitter, Jude Siegel led the field into turn 1 with Matt Findley in second and Logan Rumsey and Frankie Herr battling for third. Steve Owings joined the battle as there was melee in turns 1 and 2 bringing out the caution.

Siegel, Findley, Herr, Owings and Doug Hammaker made up the top five for the restart. Hammaker looked under Owings for fourth on the restart with Owings holding onto the spot and putting pressure on Herr for third. Herr got by Findley for second and Hammaker moved into fourth. Doug then kept his charge to the front going and got by Findley for third.

The red came out when Bryn Gohn flipped in turn 3. Owings got by Findley for fourth on the restart and Siegel and Herr raced wheel to wheel for the lead coming off turn 4. Herr took the lead on lap 6 and Hammaker moved into second.

Hammaker was running the top to reel in Herr when the yellow came out on lap 10. Hammaker looked to the top on the restart but Herr held the lead using the bottom of the track. Hammaker tried the low line in turns 1 and 2, but Herr still held on to the top spot.

Herr held on to become the sixth different winner in the six 358 sprint car features this season. Hammaker was second, Siegel finished third and Owings crossed the line fourth. Findley completed the top five.

Next Saturday, July 20, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with Dean’s Auto Plaza night featuring the 410 sprint cars and 358 sprint cars.

Logan Wagner Goes Back to Back, Weaver Claims 2nd Career Win, Shoemaker Wires Limited Late Model Field

Port Royal, PA - Logan Wagner charged from his 8th starting position to the win on Saturday night to claim his 2nd win of the season in 410 competition behind the wheel of the Kreitz racing 69K.

Jake Karklin and Austin Bishop would make up the front row of the 25-lap A-main event, but it would be Jeff Halligan who would lead the opening lap with Logan Wagner making the pass on Bishop for 3rd on lap 2.

Halligan and Wagner would be on a class of their own over the next 14 laps breaking away from the field.

Wagner would make the pass on Halligan in turn 1 with 10 laps remaining and wouldn't look back, holding on for over a 7 second win over the rest of the field.

"I felt really good early," said Wagner in victory lane. "I feel like they keep giving me cars like that, we're going to keep winning."

Jeff Halligan would hold on for 2nd and Jake Karklin would round out the podium.

Logan Wagner would win the Valley Supply hard charger worth $500 and Jake Waters would win the J&S Classics Warrior Award after the 20 chip was drawn in victory lane and he was the 20th place finisher.

In Selinsgrove Ford super late model competition, Justin Weaver would lead from the opening lap to pick up his 2nd straight and 2nd overall win at Port Royal Speedway.

It wouldn't be without a late challenge though from Colton Flinner who would overtake Weaver with 6 laps remaining.

His pass wouldn't hold however as heavy lap traffic in front of the leads would slow Flinner enough for Weaver to retake the lead and never look back to hold on for the win.

Flinner would finish in 2nd and would claim the night's Lauver's Concessions Hard Charger award and Dillan Stake would finish in 3rd.

For the Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models, Shawn Shoemaker would lead from wire to wire to claim the victory.

Trent Brenneman would make a few attempts for the lead on the inside of the corners but couldn't hold the speed to overtake and Shoemaker would claim his first victory of 2024.

Brenneman would hold on for 2nd and Ryan Zook would round out the podium.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action on Saturday July 20th with Weikert Livestock 410 sprint cars, Penns Valley Meat Market PA Sprint Sprint Series 305 sprint cars and the wingless sportsman all presented by Bobby Rahal Toyota of Lewistown.

Selinsgrove Speedway

July 8, 2024

Written by Bert Wojcik

Selinsgrove,PA- For those that say the dog days of summer are in August. May I introduce you to PA Speedweek. The sun was scorching hot on Sunday in Snyder County. But a packed grandstands braved the heat for the final night of Pennsylvania Speedweek Presented by Red Robin. The points battle as it does most years came down to the final night. Where Dillsburg,PA Anthony Macri and Gettysburg,PA Danny Dietrich were the last two standing after 8 nights of racing coming into Selinsgrove. Coming into Selinsgrove, Macri led Dietrich by 62 points. Macri had three wins to Dietrich's two wins. The stage was set for a Sunday night battle. When the dust settled Danny Dietrich would win the battle taking his second win of the season at Selinsgrove in the Opperman-Bogar-Heintzleman Memorial and his third win of the week. But Anthony Macri would win the war clinching his second straight PA Speedweek Presented by Red Robin Championship.Meanwhile Keith Jack would take home the win for the NY-PENN IMCA Modified Series presented by Insinger Performance.

The feature started with East Berlin,PA Kody Hartlaub and Dietrich on the front row. Macri would take the green in the third spot. Dietrich would cut down Macri lead in the standings to just 30 points after Dietrich earned $300 for Fast Tee’s Fast Time. For Macri to clinch the title, he would need to finish 7th or better in the 30 lap feature. On the start Dietrich would get around Hartlaub and start to pull away and lead lap 1. Macri would waste little time getting around Hartlaub for second.

The only caution of the feature would come out on lap 4 for Cameron Smith spinning out in turn 2. Smith would return for a top 10 finish. The restart would come and Dietrich would pull away from Macri. It wouldn't take long for Dietrich to hit lap traffic. Only 8 laps in and Dietrich and Macri would get into lap traffic.

On lap 11 Macri would chip away at the lead and try to get a run on Dietrich off of 4 but got loose off of turn 2 and that would be the closest Macri would get for now. Hanover,PA Troy Wagaman would settle into the third spot. Meanwhile upfront Dietrich would put a clinic in lap traffic slicing his way through the field. Macri was having a tough time getting off of turn two where Dietrich was having a better time off the corner.

Back through the field. Medford,NJ Justin Whittall who missed his heat race and started 19th. Was making his way through the field and ended up being hard charger on the night finishing a solid 4th marking his 2nd straight top 5 finish at Selinsgrove in the two events he ran this year.

Meanwhile up front Macri tried, but he knew where he needed to be as Danny Dietrich would take the checker flag for his 2nd win of the season at Selinsgrove and 9th career win at the track, his 10th of the season. But it would be Anthony Macri 2nd place finish to clinch the 2024 Pennsylvania Speedweek presented by Red Robin championship. Wagaman would end up third. Whittal fourth and Devin Borden would round out the top 5.

“Anthony keeps you on your toes,” Dietrich said in High Caliber Cranes Victory lane.” But we had a great week. Lincoln really killed me. Dug us a whole in time trials. Lincoln really set a fire under my butt and Jake yelled at me. But glad to get a win here for all the fans that don’t like me.” Dietrich's top 10 finish also needed him the Selinsgrove Ford 10 for 10 bonus earning a $5,000 bonus for finishing in the top 10 all 9 nights of Speedweek.

“We have a great group of guys. They never gave up or got upset.” Macri said in High Caliber Cranes Victory Lane on his crew and the Speedweek Championship. “ I said it before, it's 10 miserable days but it's all worth it when it ends like this. We got a good bit of momentum going into the month of money. This week feels a little more rewarding than last year with the way we fought back this week.”

The 20 lap NY-Penn IMCA modified feature would start with Rodney Morgan and Jacob McConnel on the front row. Morgan would get a great jump and take the early lead and lead lap one. Keith Jack who started back in the 7th spot was up to 4th on the 3rd lap making his charge for the front. It wouldn't take long for Jack to get around McConnel for the 3rd spot after McConnel would get passed by Jared Spalding for 2nd.

The first yellow of the event would come out with McConnel spinning out on lap 9. On the restart Morgan would get the jump again on Spalding. He would be fighting Keith Jack for the second spot off of turn 2. The 71 of Brad Chilson would slow and the 31 of Brad Delamater would spin in turn 3 bringing out the caution to make it a 4 lap shootout.

The lap 16 restart would see Morgan continue to get a great restart. Jack would get around Spalding for the 2nd spot on the restart. With two laps to go Jack would close in on Morgan on the highside off of turn two. Down the back straight he would pull side by side and take the lead off of Morgan and Keith Jack would score the victory over Morgan, Spalding would be third, Brandon Smith fourth and JW Lampeter rounded out the top 5.

“ We tried the cross over move on Jared and it worked, '' Keith Jack said in High Caliber Cranes victory lane. “ Saw the run we got on Morgan and that's all it took to get around him on the highside.”

The Selinsgrove Speedway is back in action one final night before the Summer Break coming up this Saturday July 13th for Pack the Track Night with FREE General Admission, Featuring the LIL Bob’s Road Runner 20 paying $1,299 to win and over $3,000 added to the purse.

"That was a hard race," said Wagner, "I felt like I was being tracked down by the 19. We were able to pick off the lap cars. Apparently, Davey and Donnie gave me the best car there was."

Brent Marks held on to 2nd and Anthony Macri would round out the podium. Macri will carry a 63 point lead into the final race at Selinsgrove Speedway.

In Selinsgrove Ford super late model competition, Justin Weaver was able to lead from lap 1 to lap 25 for the $4,000 win.

Macri Wires For Williams Grove Smith Memorial 20K Win

Dillsburg pilot takes speedweek series point lead

7/5/24

Mechanicsburg – Anthony Macri wired the field for the $20,000 win in the 36th annual Mitch Smith Memorial at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night as part of the Pennsylvania Speedweek Series for 410 sprint cars.

The victory was the ninth of Macri’s career at the oval and his third this season as well as his third of the speedweek series.

Both Macri and Chad Trout shared the front row for the start of the 30-lap main event with Macri zipping into the lead when action began.

Defending event winner and sixth starter Brent Marks drove up to third on the third lap and began working on Trout for second.

By lap eight Macri was beginning to work the rear of the field as Marks continued working on the second spot.

Marks had just made a move around Trout to net second when the only caution flag of the race unfurled with 11 laps completed for a stopped Ryan Smith who had sustained front-end damage.

The caution flag wiped out the 1.1 second lead that Macri held over the field.

Macri went back to work running off from the field when action resumed however the battle expected between Trout and Marks never developed as Trout held strong for the duration.

Instead, fourth starter Logan Schuchart began fighting with Marks for third and the pair exchanged the spot during the final circuits with Marks ultimately getting the upper hand by the finish.

The performance by Macri coupled with a finish of eighth by Danny Dietrich in the feature moved Macri into the speedweek point lead by 36 points after he entered the night 30 points out of the lead, behind Dietrich.

The win was the first of Macri’s career in the prestigious Williams Grove Mitch Smith Memorial.

Schuchart rode home fourth followed by Freddie Rahmer.

Heats went to Marks, Wolfe, Daryn Pittman and Rahmer. The B Main was taken by Mike Walter II.

Macri Claims Speedweek Win, Tyler Ross Wins URC A-Main

July 3rd, 2024

Port Royal, PA - It was the 6th scheduled night of PA Sprint Speedweek presented by Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Brews, and Anthony Macri was able to claim his 3rd Port Royal Speedway Weikert Livestock 410 sprint car win in 2024.

Michael Walter and Chase Dietz made up the front row of the 30 lap A-main event, and Walter would jump out to the early lead once the green flag dropped.

The Selinsgrove driver would lead the opening 12 laps of the race before he would be run down by 3rd starter Brent Marks who would overtake him on the backstretch.

A caution would come out on lap 15 for a slowing Brock Zearfoss on the front stretch. That would reset the field with the top 5 as follows: Marks, Macri, Walter, Dietrich, and Logan Wagner.

On the ensuing restart, Macri would take the unconventional route around the speedway working the bottom side of the corners over the next 4 laps to take the lead away from Marks and would run away for the $10,000 win.

"Like Joe Mooney said it's a little unconventional," said Macri in victory lane talking about using the bottom side of the speedway to take the win. "These guys are working really hard this week and giving me a great car all week long. It's on me just not to mess it up."

Brent Marks and Logan Wagner would round out the podium for the Weikert Livestock 410 A-main event.

In the United Racing Club 360 sprint car A-main, 3rd starter Tyler Ross would go on to win the 25 lap feature event.

After an early lap 1 wreck that collected the likes of Kyle Smith, Seth Schnoke, Frankie Herr, Ken Meisner, Kruz Kepner and Jake Galloway, Cody Fletcher and Doug Hammaker would lead the field to green.

Once the feature went back green, Tyler Ross would jump from inside row number 2 to the lead and wouldn't look back.

Jake Karklin would finish in 2nd and Doug Hammaker would round out the podium.

PA Speedweek will be back in action on Thursday July 4th at Hagerstown Speedway with Danny Dietrich holding a 33 point lead over Anthony Macri in the Speedweek point standings.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action on Saturday July 6th for the Greg Hodnett Classic as a part of PA Speedweek with Selinsgrove Ford super late models also in action with the night being presented by Ramsey's Car Wash.

Selinsgrove speedweek preview

Written by Bert Wojcik

Selinsgrove,PA- The fastest week of racing on the east coast is here. Pennsylvania Speedweek presented by Red Robin making its way throughout the mid-state for 10 nights of hot and heavy action. But all good things must come to an end. Selinsgrove Speedway has the pleasure of returning once again as the finale of Pennsylvania Speedweek presented by Red Robin with the $10,000 to win Jan Opperman, Dick Bogar, Ralph Heintzelman Sr. Memorial presented by High Caliber Cranes this Sunday July 7th at 7pm with the 410 sprint cars and IMCA Modifieds on the card..

Selinsgrove Speedway has been a part of the Pennsylvania Speedweek presented by Red Robin every year since 1992 except for 1998. In the 31 years of Speedweek coming to the Snyder County facility. Mother Nature has only interfered twice. With the 2013 edition and unfortunately 2023 edition to rain. The last time Speedweek made an appearance at Selinsgrove was July 3rd 2022 where Danny Dietrich held off Brent Marks and Justin Peck for his 3rd Speedweek win at Selinsgrove and his, at the time, 6th career Selinsgrove win. Overall Fred Rahmer leads all drivers with 7 Speedweek wins(93,95,97,99,2000,& 2008) the late Greg Hodnett is second with 4 wins.

As 2024 goes, it's been a tough year to get the 2024 season going with mother nature reaping havoc on the Saturday night races this season. Luckily 2 of the 3 410 sprint car shows got in with Austin Bishop picking up his first career 410 sprint car win at the season opener on April 21st. Lost the Ray Tilly Classic to rain on May 12th. Danny Dietrich scored his 8th career Selinsgrove win on June 2nd setting the stage for the 4th of 8 410 shows at Selinsgrove in 2024.

Sunday we honor 3 men who left a legacy that is undeniable and left a lasting impact not only at Selinsgrove Speedway but Central PA. Califorina’s Jan Opperman was hired by Selinsgrove business man Luke “Dick” Bogar to drive his orange and white 99 after Barry Camp left the team in 1972. Bogar’s family has deep ties to the speedway dating back to the 1940’s when his fathers lumber company won the contract to build the famous covered grandstands at the speedway.

Barry Camp owned the speed shop that was located across the street from a service station where Ralph Heintzelman was working at the time and became friends with Camp. Bogar hired both men for the 1970 season. Heintzelman would stay on to wrench on the 99 when Bogar hired Opperman and the team went on a tear. In the first season in 1972 Opperman and Heintzelman won 44 of the 95 races they entered with an additional 22 podiums and 79 top 5 finishes.

Opperman would go on to win 26 features en route to the 1973 Selinsgrove track championship. The only track championship of Oppermans career. Heintzelman would guide Opperman to a, at the time, upset of USAC at Williams grove in ‘73. The team would stay together until 1974 when Heintzelman teamed up with Lynn Paxton in 1974. Opperman would pass away in 1997. Bogar Passed away in 2014, and Heintzelman in 2019.

Pennsyilvana Speedweek presented by Red Robin has a lot of incentives for the drivers for the 2024 edition. In addition to the outstanding race day payoffs, C&D Rigging has returned as a sponsor to boost the point series payoff to $30,000 to be paid to fifteen drivers. First through fifth in the final point standings will collect $6,000, $3,000, $2,700, $2,500, and $2,200 respectively. The big increase is the bonus for the next ten drivers in the point standings who compete in every SpeedWeek event. Those bonus payoffs will range from $1,800 to $1,000. All events must be completed for the total of $30,000 to be paid. A total of over $353,500 will be awarded throughout the week, including $30,000 from the point fund, $323,500 in total purses, and additional contingency prizes each night.

The Long Hollow Cattle Company will once again sponsor the B-Main for the third consecutive year. Owner Matt Balliet will post a minimum payoff of $300-$200-$150-$100-$100 to the first non-qualifiers.

Selinsgrove Ford will sponsor the $5,000 “Ten for Ten” bonus. Todd Benner, Selinsgrove Ford president, will present a $5,000 Bonus to a driver with a top 10 feature finish in every SpeedWeek event. A minimum of 7 events must be completed for the bonus. If multiple drivers have all top ten finishes, the highest point finisher receives the $5,000 bonus. If no driver records all top ten finishes, the driver with most top ten finishes receives $1,000. In the event of a tie for most top ten finishes, the highest driver in final points will receive the $1,000 bonus. Drivers must compete in all events to qualify for the bonus.

Lelands.com will offer bonus money for heat race action with the “Knockout Bonus”. There will be a $500 Bonus each night if the heat race starter with the fastest time (usually the fourth-place starter) can win the heat race thereby “knocking out” all other drivers in that heat race from the feature redraw. If more than one driver accomplishes the knockout, the $500 will be divided equally. Finally and new this year, the York County Racing Club is offering a $100 bonus for the first non-qualifier that is a dues paying member to the Club.

All gates open at 3pm with hot laps set to roll at 6:20 with qualifying and racing to follow. General admission is $30 Seniors, Military are $25, Students are $15, and Kids 12 and under are free. Pits are $40 and kids pit prices are $20 with an accompanying adult. Drivers and Owners children under 13 get in free.

Rick K will have a concert before the races starting at 4pm. The first 150 fans through the gate will get a ticket good for one hot dog and soda or a free slice of pizza. Also Pocono raceway has given us multiple tickets to give away for next Saturday Kids day featuring practice and qualifying for both NASCAR Xfinity and Cup Series as well as the Explore the Pocono Mountains 225 for the Xfinity series so stay tuned for those giveaways.

LOGAN SCHUCHART CLAIMS THUNDER ON THE HILL HODNETT CUP WITH $10,000 VICTORY IN PA SPRINT SPEED WEEK EVENT PRESENTED BY RED ROBIN AS DOUG MANMILLER WINS MODIFIEDS FEATURE TUESDAY NIGHT AT GRANDVIEW SPEEDWAY

BECHTELSVILLE, PA (July 2, 2024) – It was a thrilling night of PA Speedweek action presented by Red Robin at the Grandview Speedway on Tuesday. This event marked the one-hundred and fifty-fifth Thunder on the Racing Series event brought to you by HVAC Distributors and Pioneer Pole Buildings.

Logan Schuchart, invaded to claim his first NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series victory winning $10,000 and the prestigious Greg Hodnett Cup, while Doug Manmiller secured a win in the NASCAR 358 Modified portion of the event. The action-packed night celebrated an exciting doubleheader of two of the most popular divisions with support from HVAC Distributors and Pioneer Pole Buildings.

“Greg Hodnett was awesome to me and winning a race in his honor is really cool,” Schuchart said in Victory Lane. “It means a lot to me to get this win.”

Schuchart and Anthony Macri lined up on the front row for the start of the 35-lap 410 Sprint Car A-Main, setting the stage for a thrilling Pennsylvania Sprint Car Speedweek race,, with a hefty $10,000 prize awaiting the winner.

Macri took the lead right off the bat, but by the fourth lap, was already navigating heavy lapped traffic.

Slower cars allowed Schuchart to close the gap and he overtook Macri on the outside by lap 8, claiming the top position.

The lead see-sawed between the two drivers through the second half, with Macri challenging vigorously and pulling side-by-side by lap 20.

“The Concrete Kid,” Macri boldly attempted – but did not complete – a slider as laps continued to tick away, but he persisted and reclaimed the lead on lap 23, only for Schuchart to drive underneath him just a few circuits later.

As the laps wound down, the intensity mounted.

Macri, right on Schuchart's back bumper by lap 32, made one last effort to grab the victory on the final lap. With Schuchart at the helm, Macri barreled into turn three colliding with the wall as the two raced towards the checkered flag.

Schuchart’s victory – his first at Grandview Speedway -- was well earned in a race that ran from green to checkers without a single caution and was fraught with heavy lapped traffic throughout.

Macri would settle for the runner-up position, with Jesse Attard, Emerson Axsom, and Devon Borden completing the top five.

Schuchart set quick time on the night with a lap of 12.073, while qualifying races were won by Danny Dietrich, Devon Boren, and Jesse Attard.

Doug Manmiller of Shoemakerville, PA picked up the win in the NASCAR 358 Modified portion of the exciting Tuesday night doubleheader. Manmiller overtook Timmy Buckwalter on the third lap of the 30-lap main event. Buckwalter remained in contention for the win in chase of the $2,000 bonus posted by Pioneer Pole Building for a first time Thunder on the Hill Modified feature winner.

The caution flew for the first time on lap 8 when Danny Bouc slowed on the speedway, but that didn’t stop Manmiller who charged quickly away from Buckwalter and VonDohren setting a sizable lead over his competition.

Multiple cautions in the final ten laps weren’t enough to stop Manmiller – aboard the Jason Miller No. 44 machine – he easily sailed to victory with Timmy Buckwalter finishing in the second position, Jeff Strunk in the third position, Craig VonDohren in fourth and Mike Gular rounding out the top five.

Saturday, July 20 (7PM) DEAN’S AUTO PLAZA NIGHT: 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints

Abbottstown, PA (June 22, 2024) – After inheriting the lead after a yellow with 9 laps to go Anthony Macri scored his first win of the week, “I put us behind the 8-ball on Friday.” After a rough start to Speedweek Macri and his team haven’t lost sight of defending the 2023 Speedweek Champion Title, “I told these guys the week wasn’t over and I wasn’t going to quit and I know they’re not going to quit. I feel like this is the turn around point for the week.”

Once Macri took the lead it was all she wrote, “Clean air is very important, When you can’t get clean air on your wing it makes it very difficult.”

The cars lined up in the front row, Kody Hartlaub and Matt Campbell, were both looking for their first Speedweek win when the green flag dropped. Devon Borden, challenged Hartlaub for the lead with Hartlaub coming out on top to lead lap 1. Hartlaub used the bottom of the track and Borden opted for the top as they raced for the lead. Anthony Macri moved into third.

Hartlaub and Borden continued to battle for the lead and swapped the top spot and second back and forth nearly every lap. Borden finally got the advantage at the line by half a car length on lap four.

Macri got under Hartlaub to move into second which left Hartlaub to fend off a challenge from Matt Campbel for third. Campbell took over third on lap 8 as Borden was closing in on the tail end of the field.

Borden was in heavy lapped traffic as two cars battled side by side in front of him which allowed Macri to reel him in. Hartlaub moved back into third. Macri tracked down Borden just past the halfway point to challenge for the lead and the two were nearly wheel to wheel at the line on lap 19.

The one and only caution of the race came on lap 21 when Cameron Smith did a 360 spin. During the caution Borden was penalized two spots due to an infraction on the initial start of the race. Officials deemed that Borden was not nose to tail as Hartlaub crossed the chalk line. That gave Macri the lead and sent Borden back to third.

Borden went to the top to go after Hartlaub for second on the restart and had it, but Kody stayed on the bottom in turns 3 and 4 and reclaimed it before the flagstand.

Borden and Hartlaub continued to battle hard for second with Borden taking the runner up spot on lap 23.

Macri was pulling away from the field in clean air as the laps wound down and Hartlaub was holding off World of Outlaws driver, Logan Schuchart.

Macri got to the checkered flag 2.875 seconds ahead of Borden. Hartlaub held onto third and Schuchart was fourth. Troy Wagaman completed the top five.

Next Saturday, June 29, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the $25,000 to win 25th Annual Kevin Gobrecht Memorial presented by Goofy’s Eatery & Spirits and Commonwealth Trailer Parts; Night 2 of Pennsylvania Speedweek. The Superior Homes Extreme Stocks are also in action. Racing is scheduled for 7PM with pit gates opening at 4:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 5PM.

PA Speedweek 36th Annual Mitch Smith Memorial Is Friday At Williams Grove

Sprints only show offers $20,000 to win, total purse worth nearly 50K

Mechanicsburg – Williams Grove Speedway will present the long-running crown jewel of Pennsylvania Speedweek this Friday night, July 5 when it spins off the Renegade Race Fuel & Oil 36th annual Mitch Smith Memorial for Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars at 7:30 pm.

The Mitch Smith Memorial will pay a hefty $20,000 to win out of a total purse worth nearly $50,000.

The Renegade Race Fuel & Oil Mitch Smith Memorial honors the late, great Richard “Mitch” Smith of Linglestown who succumbed to a massive heart attack in 1988, some 10 years after retiring.

Smith left the sport in 1978 after a four-decade long career wherein he scored 27 sprint car wins and nine super modified victories at Williams Grove alone to go along with 179 overall checkered flags.

In order to commemorate Smith’s illustrious career, a pair of restored Smith race cars will be on display at the show to include his very first machine, a model A roadster No. 44 and his Gary’s Auto Wreckers No. 5 machine piloted in the early 1970s.

Time trials will set the starting grids for the Friday Smith Memorial with the main event going 30-laps in distance.

The fastest driver in qualifying time trials will earn the $300 Fast Tees Fast Time Award, courtesy of Fast Tees Screenprinting of Thompsontown.

The Smith Memorial will be another race in the 2024 Hoosier Diamond Series at the track.

The special speedweek event will be a stand-alone sprint car program, highlighting the speedweek 410 sprint cars.

Fireworks will also be part of the Independence Day holiday weekend show.

Adult general admission for the race is set at $30 with youth ages 13 - 20 admitted for $15. Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

Renegade Race Fuel & Oil started from humble beginnings in a one car garage 27 years ago. Renegade Race Fuel & Oil has evolved as a dynamic global powerhouse showcasing that a company built by racers, for racers, knows exactly what community needs. Check them out at renegaderacefuel.com

First run in 1989, Stevie Smith won the very first Mitch Smith Memorial before returning for wins again in 2012 and 2014.

No driver owns more wins in the speedweek race than six-time event champion Lance Dewease.

Brent Marks has won the last two Mitch Smith Memorials in a row.

Among others, previous winners have included Joey Allen, Alan Krimes, Daryn Pittman, Trey Starks, Don Kreitz Jr. Fred Rahmer, Greg Hodnett and Danny Dietrich.

Williams Grove Mitch Smith Memorial Honors Illustrious Driving Career

36th annual event to be held Friday as part of PA Speedweek Series

Williams Grove Mitch Smith Memorial Honors Illustrious Driving Career

Mechanicsburg – When Williams Grove Speedway gets down to action on Friday night, it will do so for the 36th year in a row in honor of a famed sprint car great, the late Mitch Smith of Linglestown.

The oval will host the Renegade Race Fuel and Oil 36th annual Mitch Smith Memorial as part of Pennsylvania Speedweek on July 5 at 7:30 pm.

And the race to honor Smith will pay a lucrative $20,000 to win out of a total purse worth almost $50,000.

Richard D. “Mitch” Smith was the original “Mr. Excitement” of Pennsylvania sprint car lore.

At Williams Grove Speedway alone he ended his four-decade long career in 1978 with 27 sprint car wins and nine super modified victories.

But overall on his career, his checkered flags added up to 179.

The name Mitch Smith became cemented nationally when in 1971 the “Little Guy” from Linglestown trounced the boasting stars of the United States Auto Club, not once, but three times when they towed into the region.

In 1971, USAC was to sprint car racing what the World of Outlaws is today.

USAC competition was the way to Indy. The USAC circuit groomed its drivers to sit on the Indy 500 starting grid.

And start they did.

But on June 19 and September 25 at Williams Grove Speedway in 1971 and again on July 17 at Selinsgrove Speedway, Mitch Smith used a rarely doled out temporary racing permit issued by USAC to just a few local drivers to beat the traveling band badly.

The USAC stars were furious.

Protests were lodged and tear-downs were performed.

All was legal.

Smith had beaten the unquestionable best in the sprint car business not once, not twice but three times.

The word went out.

”The Linglestown Leadfoot,” Mitch Smith, had trounced USAC in Central Pennsylvania.

Smith retired from the sport in 1978 and in 1988 at the age of 58 was felled by a massive heart attack.

In 1995 Mitch Smith was inducted posthumously into the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame in Knoxville, Iowa.

It is the legacy left behind and the impact that Smith had on the sport in the region and at Williams Grove Speedway that the oval honors again this year with the running of the 36th annual Mitch Smith Memorial on Friday night.

Brent Marks is the defending winner of the prestigious Mitch Smith Memorial and in fact has won the last two Smith Memorial’s in a row.

Lance Dewease is the winningest driver in Smith Memorial history, having scored wins in 1992, 1995, 1997, 2001, 2018 and in 2021.

Fred Rahmer has four Smith Memorials to his credit along with the late Greg Hodnett.

Stevie Smith won the inaugural event in 1989.

Dietrich Opens PA Speedweek With Williams Grove Win

Doug Hammaker scores second of season in 358s

6/28/24

Mechanicsburg – Danny Dietrich sped to the win in the 34th annual Pennsylvania Speedweek Series opener on Friday night at Williams Grove Speedway.

Dietrich pocketed $10,800 for the victory including $800 in bonus moneys. It was the 13th win for Dietrich in the history of sprint car speedweek action.

Doug Hammaker took the win in the 20-lap 358 sprint main.

Justin Whittall started on the pole of the 30-lap speedweek main alongside Dietrich.

Whittall took the lead when action began with Dietrich giving chase.

By lap four when the first caution flag of the race unfurled, fifth starter Anthony Macri was up to third.

Macri got around Dietrich on lap six and set his sights on the leader.

By lap 10 Whittall was staring down the barrel of the rear of the field and he began attempting to work traffic with 12 away.

Lap 14 saw Dietrich briefly reclaim second over Macri only to again surrender the spot moments later.

At the halfway point Whittall had a .536 second lead with Macri closing fast in traffic.

And Macri made good on his momentum with 13 laps to go to net the top spot while bringing Dietrich with him as Whittall faltered.

The defending speedweek series champion, Macri appeared headed unchallenged to the win until disaster struck with four laps to go.

Macri jumped the cushion in turns three and four and slammed the outside wall before coming to a stop.

This handed the lead to Dietrich who himself had smacked the outside backstretch wall a few laps earlier causing suspension damage.

The Gettysburg pilot took the win by 3.508 seconds.

Whittall had to fend off the challenges of Troy Wagaman Jr. over the final laps before surrendering the spot with less than two laps to go.

After starting 12th, Freddie Rahmer then pressured Whittall for third to the finish line before settling for fourth.

Chase Dietz ended up fifth.

Sixth through 10th went to Lucas Wolfe, Dylan Cisney, Logan Wagner, Devon Borden and Kyle Reinhardt.

Heats were taken by Dietrich, Wagaman, Macri and Whittall with Cameron Smith taking the B Main.

Dietrich set quick time with a lap of 18.560 seconds.

Polesitter Jude Siegel led the first 13 laps of the 358 sprint main before Doug Hammaker made a move in traffic to take the lead in the fourth corner.

Derek Locke drove into second with five laps to go but failed to close on the leader as Hammaker took his second oval win of the year by 2.364 seconds.

Chad Criswell, Preston Lattomus and Siegel completed the top five finishers.

Sixth through 10th went to Logan Rumsey, Scott Fisher, Seth Schnoke, Cole Young and Dylan Norris.

Heats went to Siegel, Schnoke and Criswell.

MATT CAMPBELL CHARGES TO FIRST WIN WITH NEW TEAM; Steve Owings Back in Victory Lane

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, June 29 (7PM) PA SPEEDWEEK: 25th Annual Kevin Gobrecht Memorial presented by Goofy’s Eatery & Spirits and Commonwealth Trailer Parts $25,000 to Win for 410 Sprints plus Superior Homes Extreme Stocks

Monday, July 1 (7PM) PA SPEEDWEEK: $10,000 to win for 410 Sprints

Saturday, July 6 (6PM) CROWNSTONE EQUIPMENT NIGHT: Legends, Mason Dixon 270s, Flying Iron Limited Stocks and Classic Cars

Abbottstown, PA (June 22, 2024) – Matt Campbell hoped in the seat of a brand new team at the start of the 2024 season, “We started with a blank slate. This is our tenth show out and we’ve been consistent.” Coming into Saturday night, Campbell sat second in the season point standings.

Campbell lined up ninth for the start of the feature, midway through the field. Matt was up to sixth by lap 7 and then found his way into the top five on lap 13. Campbell continued his charge to the front. The car came to life for the second half of the race "I kept running my line and found something on the bottom,” he was up to fourth on lap 17 and then lap 22 he was into the top three, “This thing was on a rail.” After getting to third, Campbell got by Rahmer and Campbell with a single pass in turns 1 and 2 to take the lead with five laps to go. Once he got to the front he started to pull away and that was all she wrote, “What a freakin’ race!”

Pole-sitter, Kody Hartlaub, pulled a wheelie at the chalk line and led the field into turn 1. Troy Wagaman was looking under Aaron Bollinger for a shot at second and Kyle Moody got by Chad Trout for fourth.

Freddie Rahmer was working on Trout for fifth and made the pass with a slider in turn 2. Bollinger and Wagaman were closing in on Hartlaub as they got into lapped traffic

Wagaman made a move to get under Bollinger in turns 1 and 2 to take second and Rahmer moved into fourth. Rahmer got under Bollinger and Matt Campbell was there to make it a three-car battle for third.

Rahmer was closing in on Wagaman for second and made the pass to take the spot on lap 17. Campbell moved into fourth and was reeling in Wagaman for third. A fierce battle was underway for third as Wagaman and Campbell raced side by side at the line with 10 laps to go. Campbell moved into third and not long after there was a three-car battle for the lead with Hartlaub, Rahmer and Campbell.

Campbell got by both Rahmer and Hartlaub in one pass to take the lead coming out of turn 2 with 5 laps to go. Rahmer and Hartlaub raced wheel to wheel for second as Campbell pulled away.

Campbell took the checkers 2.557 seconds ahead of Rahmer. Wagaman worked his way back up to third and Hartlaub crossed the line fourth. Bollinger completed the top five.

Steve Owings Back in Victory Lane

It had been a little over a year since two-time track champion, Steve Owings, had been in victory lane at Lincoln. That all changed on Saturday night when Owings scored his ninth career Lincoln win.

Pole sitter, Jude Siegel, led the field into turn 1 but there was a yellow on the start when Doug Hammaker was facing the wrong way in turns 1 and 2. On the complete restart, Siegel led the field into turn once again but Steve Owings used the top line in turns 1 and 2 for a killer move that saw him go from fourth to second. Owings had the lead by a nose at the flag stand on lap 3. Siegel was right there and the two were side by side at the line on lap 5 with Owings holding the advantage by inches.

There was also an exciting battle transpiring between Cody Fletcher and Frankie Herr for fourth. Fletcher eventually pulled away and went to challenge Ashely Cappetta for third. Fletcher took the position but Cappetta stuck around and was still putting pressure on Cody to try and regain the spot.

Josh Harner brought out the yellow on lap 7 when he spun in turns 1 and 2.

Owings pulled away from Siegel, Fletcher, Cappetta and Logan Rumsey on the restart. Rumsey looked to the outside of Cappetta and briefly had fourth before Cappetta reclaimed the position. The yellow flew again on lap 8, this time it was for Tom Senseney in turns 1 and 2.

Fletcher looked to the outside of Siegel on the restart but settled for third. Owings was pulling away again as Ayden Hare used the top line to gain speed and challenge Cappetta for fifth. Hare and Cappetta went back and forth with Hare eventually coming away with fifth.

As Owings continued to pull away, Hammaker was on the move after his early race mishap and was up to sixth with three laps to go.

Owings scored the win by 1.020 seconds over Siegel. Rumsey crossed the line third and Fletcher was fourth. Hammaker had an impressive run through the field to finish fifth.

Anthony Macri Wins $22,000 Thriller, Eckert Wins in Different Ride, Spahr Wins from 11th

Port Royal, PA - The night started with a big announcement courtesy of Sandy Kline from J&S Classics that the Weikert Livestock 410 A-main event would pay $22,000 instead of the scheduled $5,000 to win in memory of her husband Jim Kline.

With the unannounced change in payout, the event became a PA Speedweek style format with 2 car qualifying saw Logan Wagner go fastest in the group.

The A-main would see Logan Wagner and Brent Marks make up the front row for the 25 lap event with Anthony Macri and Justin Whittall making up row two.

Wagner would lead the opening 13 circuits of the race before problems would slow the 69K to halt on the backstretch and give the 19M of Brent Marks the lead.

On the ensuing restart, Macri would attempt to put a slider on Marks in turn 1, but Marks was able to drive back by for the lead.

On the next lap, Macri would attempt another slider into one and would get it to stick for the lead with 10 laps remaining.

Macri would open his lead to over 1.000 seconds in the waning laps of the race, but with 3 laps to go, Brent Marks came to life and started to track down Macri for the win.

With the white flag thrown, Marks would follow Macri through the first set of corners and carry the momentum to pull alongside for the lead going into turns 3 and 4 when the caution flag would wave for a slowing Michael Walter on the front stretch.

With a one lap shootout for the win, Macri powered off to a great start and would claim the Jim Kline Tribute race title and take home $22,000.

"We drove over nineteen and a half hours from Husets to be here tonight for Sandy and this race," said Macri in victory lane. "This is the cherry on top for this team and for her."

"I've known Jim and Sandy since I was a really little kid. She used to tease me and Jim was just an amazing guy and everything he did was well respected."

Brent Marks would hold on for the runner up finish worth $5,000 and Chase Dietz would round out the podium.

Garrett Bard would take home the J&S Classics Warrior Award for finishing in the 22nd position worth $1,000.

Lance Dewease would win the Valley Supply hard charger for going from 18th to 9th worth an extra $500.

In Selinsgrove Ford super late model competition, Rick Eckert would lead from flag to flag for the $4,000 win in a different car than what fans would be used to seeing him in.

Eckert would drive the Jacob Julius number 5 for the night after a grueling Appalachian Mountain Super Late Model Speedweek would see him run out of motors after his would break at Lincoln Speedway a week ago.

"I was going to work on Jacob's car this week, and I called him up and asked him if he planned on racing this weekend," said Eckert after the race, "He said no. So, I asked him if I could and he said yeah!"

Eckert would start on the pole and lead all 25 laps with Andrew Yoder trailing him closely throughout the event.

While Yoder would pull close to Eckert multiple times throughout the feature, he never had enough speed to make the pass for the win.

Andrew Yoder would finish in the runner up spot and Dylan Yoder would finish in third.

For the Penns Valley Meat Market 305 sprint cars, Logan Spahr would charge from the 11th starting position to pass for the win with just 3 laps remaining.

Doug Dodson would lead the field to the green flag and would hold onto that position for the opening 17 laps.

He would start to face challenges from Spahr with 8 laps remaining with Spahr pulling alongside through the first two turns, but Dodson held enough speed to get back in front.

Spahr would attempt a slider but wouldn't be able to get the move to stick, and would lose ground on Dodson and have to charge him down for the next 4 laps.

Spahr would do just that and make the winning move in turn 3 by going to the inside and holding it steady to take the lead and the win.

Dodson would finish in second and Zach Rhodes would finish in 3rd.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action on Saturday June 29th for the 13th Annual Blue Collar Classic which will feature the Penns Valley Meat Market PA Sprint Series RaceSaver sprint cars, the Zimmerman Truck Repair Limited Late Models and the wingless sportsman.

Likewise, Adam Carberry of Bensalem wired in the HJ Towing & Recovery 358 sprint car main, taking a MacMor Construction Summer Series event.

It was Carberry’s first career Williams Grove checkers.

Buckwalter started on the pole of the 25-lap 410 sprint main alongside Austin Bishop.

Bishop made the opening lap interesting when Buckwalter beat him into the first corner by rallying to the eventual winner’s outside.

But Buckwalter bit fast on the inside lane as the pair raced onto the backstretch to take control.

Fourth starter Troy Wagaman Jr. got by Bishop on the second lap but was already well back of the fleet-running leader, who entered the rear of the field on just the sixth lap.

By lap 13 Buckwalter had amassed a 3.159 second lead and he wasn’t looking back.

Despite bobbling on and at times jumping the cushion and sacrificing significant ground, no other driver was ever close enough to make good on the opportunities.

Freddie Rahmer, who started the race in fifth, drove up to third with 10 laps to go but would fail to advance any further.

Buckwalter took the win by 3.230 seconds ahead of Wagaman.

Bishop was fourth and Lucas Wolfe finished fifth.

Sixth through 10th went to Ryan Smith, Tyler Ross, TJ Stutts, Kody Hartlaub and Cameron Smith.

Heats were taken by Buckwalter, Bishop and Ross.

Brent Marks set fast time with a lap of 17.258 in timed practice laps but later blew a motor in the final heat race and was out of action for the night.

Carberry raced with and fended off Zach Newlin for the entire 358 sprint car feature.

Newlin dogged Carberry for the lead by mostly racing just a lane higher than the leader around the speedway.

However Newlin could never quite muster the little bit of extra traction he needed in order to complete a pass.

Doug Hammaker got by Newlin for second with a lap and a half to go but it was too late to run down Carberry.

Newlin settled for third followed by Logan Rumsey and Derek Locke.

Sixth through 10th went to Seth Schnoke, Jayden Wolf, Chase Gutshall, Cody Fletcher and Kyle Spence.

Heats went to Gutshall, Logan Rumsey and Locke with Wyatt Hinkle claiming the consolation race.

CAMERON SMITH CHARGES TO FIRST LINCOLN 410 VICTORY; Dylan Yoder Scores Speedweek Win

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, June 22 (7PM) PA SPEEDWEEK TUNE-UP for 410 Sprints [TT] & 358 Sprints [YCRC Night]

Monday, July 1 (7PM) PA SPEEDWEEK: $10,000 to win for 410 Sprints

Abbottstown, PA (June 15, 2024) – Cameron Smith and the Rick Lefever #75 team have been on a roll since the World of Outlaws visit in May, “Brian’s had the car really good the last month, ever since the Outlaw show we’ve been really good and we’ve been able to put ourselves in the position to win.”

Smith lined up eighth for the start of the 30-lap feature, “The first caution came out and I had the wing to the trunk and was thinking it would be a long race but I started running the top and running harder in turns 1 and 2.” The win was Smith’s first in the 410 sprint car division at Lincoln Speedway and his second career win, with his first coming just a week earlier at Williams Grove Speedway.

Pole-sitter, TJ Greve took the lead at the drop of the green while Tim Glatfelter, Trey Hivner and Kody Hartlaub battled for second. Hivner had second and Hartlaub got by Glatfelter for third. Cameron Smith was using the top to work on Brett Strickler as they battled for fourth.

Jordan Givler spun in turns 1 and 2 and brought out the yellow on lap 8. Greve led Hivner, Hartlaub, Strickler and Smith on the restart. There was a yellow on the restart when Hayden Miller and Tony Jackson got together in turn 4.

Hartlaub got up next to Hivner for second with Smith in tow. Smith dove into turn 3 and got up to second. Hartlaub was right there to challenge him back. Smith pulled away and was solidly in second when Troy Wagaman moved into third.

Last week’s winner, Tyler Ross got into the top five. Smith started closing in on Greve and got by him on the back stretch to take the top spot halfway through the feature. Wagaman was not far behind and got by Greve for second.

Ross moved into fourth and Matt Campbell worked his way up to fifth. Ross continued his charge through the field and got by Greve for third. Smith entered lapped traffic on lap 19 as Wagaman was closing in. Once in lapped traffic Smith was able to pull away from Wagaman again and would go on to take the checkered flag nearly one second ahead of Troy. Campbell crossed the line third and Ross was fourth. Freddie Rahmer completed the top five.

Dylan Yoder Scores Speedweek Win

35 laps - $5,000 to win

Tyler Emory sat on the pole for the 35 lap $5,000 to win Appalachian Mountain Speedweek feature. Emory shot to the lead with Matt Cosner and Dylan Yoder racing side by side for second behind him. Yoder moved into second and Cosner settled for third. Kyle Hardy got by Cosner for third before the yellow came out on lap 4. Emory, the leader, spun in turn 2.

Yoder inherited the lead and the field lined up for a double file restart. Yoder and Hardy raced wheel to wheel for the lead with Yoder on the bottom and Hardy on the top. Yoder used the low line to keep the lead. Jason Covert worked his way into third and found himself challenging Hardy for the runner-up spot.

Dylan started pulling away from the field as Covert continued to work on Hardy for second. Matt Cosner caught up to them and made it a three-car battle for the position. Yoder held a 2.7 second lead over Hardy just as he caught the tail end of the field at the halfway point.

Covert got a nose under Hardy and with a good run into turn 1 he had second coming out of turn 2. Jason started reeling in Yoder as Dylan struggled in heavy lapped traffic. Unfortunately for Covert there were not enough laps left to catch Yoder.

Yoder crossed the line 1.115 seconds ahead of Covert for the win. Hardy was third and Cosner finished fourth. Jeremy Weaver completed the top five.

Next Saturday, June 22, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the Gene Latta Ford 410 Sprints competing in a PA Speedweek Tune-up and the McConkey Insurance & Benefits 358 Sprint Cars. Racing is scheduled for 7PM with pit gates opening at 4:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 5PM.

June 16, 2024 -- Port Royal, PA -- Open Wheel Madness at Port Royal Speedway drew a lot of competition on Saturday June 16th. 3 divisions of open wheel racing saw plenty of passing and excitement for the fans of the Speed Palace.

The USAC National Sprint Cars would kick off the night and saw pole sitter Briggs Danner take the lead. Danner would be followed closely on the opening lap by 4 starter Brady Bacon, and that theme would continue throughout the opening 27 laps of the 35 lap A-main event.

Danner and Bacon would gap the field over the first portion of the race before the battle and pressure for the lead would mount up seeing Danner go hard into the outside wall in turns 1 and 2. Danner would end up bending a radius rod and would result in him drawing a caution and bringing his night to an end.

Bacon would inherit the lead with just 8 laps to go and hold on to win with the USAC National Sprint Car series with CJ Leary and Alex Bright rounding out the podium.

"I was just going to have to stay there and pressure him until he did make a mistake," said Bacon in victory lane when talking about his strategy of running down Briggs Danner. "He was getting through lap traffic well. He just got into that cushion a little hard a few times and went up into the wall."

In Weikert Livestock 410 sprint car competition, pole sitter Justin Whittal would wire the field and pick up his second career win at the Speed Palace.

Just under a month before, Whittall was in a terrible accident that would result in him leaving Port Royal by ambulance. Come Saturday night, Whittall would be leaving the track $5,000 richer.

"I was on edge the whole night," said Whittall in victory lane, "I was nervous all night."

Michael Walter would finish in the runner-up spot and Kody Lehman would finish in third after starting 18th also winning him an extra $500 for being the Valley Supply Hard Charger.

Steve Buckwalter would take home an extra $1000 on top of his 13th place finish courtesy of the J&S Classics Warrior Award pill drawing his number after the race.

For the USAC Silver Crown division, there would be 3 lead changes in the A-main, with the most important one taking place in the 4th corner of the last lap. Daison Pursley would cross the finish line in first earning his first career USAC Silver Crown win.

Brady Bacon and Pursley would lead the field to the green for the 50 lap A-main with Bacon taking the early advantage.

Justin Grant, who started in 4th, would find himself in a 3-way battle for the lead with Bacon and Pursley 15 laps in to the feature event, and would take away the 2nd spot from Pursley with 34 laps remaining.

Grant would continue to battle with Bacon over the next 13 laps before officially taking the lead with a slider in turns 1 and 2. Daison Pursley would use the same move in turns 3 and 4 with just 18 laps left.

Pursley would use the top side of the race track to run down Grant over the final 18 laps while continuously banging into the cushion and the outside wall, but still keeping the car running.

With lapped traffic playing a heavy factor in the final laps in the race, Pursley would make his move, a slider in turns 3 and 4, to try and take the lead. Grant would turn his car back down the hill a bit to stay alongside Pursley with the two cars banging tires coming down the front stretch.

Grant would continue to be the leader into turns 1 and 2 on the white flag lap, but in turns 3 and 4 Pursley would use the top side of the track to mount momentum to get by Grant for the win.

"I feel like there were a lot of scary moments there," explained Pursley in victory lane. "It's Port Royal. If you want to win, you have to do stuff like that."

Justin Grant would finish in 2nd and Brady Bacon would round out the podium for the night.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action on June 22nd with Weikert Livestock 410 sprint cars, Selinsgrove Ford super late models and Penns Valley Meat Market 305 sprint cars.

TJ Stutts Returns To Williams Grove Winner’s Circle, Thomas Upsets Danner In USAC Eastern Storm

6/7/24

Mechanicsburg – After a near 19-year absence, TJ Stutts of Liverpool returned to victory lane at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night in the 25-lap Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint car feature.

Stutts claimed $5,500 for his first 410 sprint win at the track since August 26, 2005.

In the 30-lap USAC Sprint Eastern Storm main event, Kevin Thomas Jr. of Cullman, Alabama, pulled off a last corner pass of race-long leader Briggs Danner to upset for the win.

Tony Jackson started second in the 410 sprint car feature and took the lead at the start over Jarrett Cavalet.

Sixth starter Stutts came to second on the fifth lap.

Stutts worked on Cavalett until the 11th circuit when he was finally able to overtake him for the second spot and begin running down Jackson.

In his rookie season, Jackson was running a clean race on the cushion with the lead while Stutts made all of his time using the low side in the corners.

Jackson saw a half-second lead evaporate on the 17th tour when the first caution flag of the race appeared.

Stutts applied regular pressure to Jackson when action resumed and stalked him around the bottom, at times getting his nose alongside Jackson only to see the rookie surge back ahead.

But as the pair raced to the stripe on the 20th tour, Stutts was finally able to muscle by coming out of turn four to net control just before the red flag unfurled for a four-car tangle in the third turn.

Aaron Bollinger backed into the outside fence before collecting Bryn Gohn, Kody Hartlaub and Jeff Halligan.

Jackson gave it the old college try on the restart but Stutts was not to be denied his second career oval 410 checkers, taking the win by 2.967 seconds.

Jackson settled for a career-best second followed by Steve Buckwalter, Austin Bishop and a career-best for Cavalet.

Sixth through 10th went to PA Dyno Hard Charger Freddie Rahmer, Troy Wagaman Jr., Justin Whittall, Devon Borden and Chad Trout.

Heats went to Cavalet and Jackson.

Second starter Briggs Danner blasted into control when the green flag fell on the USAC main event and was never heeded throughout the wingless war.

Danner entered the rear of the field on lap 12, chased by Mitchel Moles and Thomas.

Danner withstood restarts on laps 12, 20 and 23 to maintain the lead although Thomas did muscle by Moles with six laps to go.

But Danner had clear sailing ahead of Thomas and was headed for the victory when with a lap and a half to go his car began sputtering, running low on fuel.

With that Danner began pitching his car in the turns and the straights to keep fuel flowing while also trying to keep the car’s momentum up.

And his antics got him all the way to the fourth corner with the checkered flag in sight when the fuel finally gave out, allowing Thomas to Zip by for the upset win along with Moles as Danner slowed under the white flag in third.

Thomas’ win was worth $6,000.

Brady Bacon and Justin Grant rounded out the top five finishers.

Sixth through 10th went to CJ Leary, Robert Ballou, Daison Pursley, Chase Stockon and Kyle Cummins.

Heats went to Bacon, Charles Davis Jr. and Jake Swanson.

Logan Seavey set fast time with a lap of 19.659 seconds.

THUNDER ON THE HILL RACING SERIES

NAPA AUTO PARTS THUNDER ON THE HILL RACING SERIES DELIVERS THRILLER ON PIONEER POLE BUILDINGS NIGHT TUESDAY AT GRANDVIEW SPEEDWAY

FIRST-TIME THUNDER WINNERS: HOMETOWN HERO, BRIGGS DANNER WINS FIRST CAREER USAC NATIONAL TOUR EVENT AS ERIC KORMANN POCKETS PPB BONUS FOR $5,000 VICTORY IN 30 LAP MOD FEATURE

BECHTELSVILLE, PA (June 11, 2024) – It was a night of firsts at Bechtelsville’s Grandview Speedway on Tuesday night as Pioneer Pole Buildings presented the Jesse Hockett Classic. It was the first night of the 17th Annual Eastern Storm, the first career USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car Championship win for Allentown, PA’s Briggs Danner, and the first NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series victory for Vineland, NJ’s Eric Kormann in the NASCAR 358 Modifieds. Danner collected a $6,000 payday with his hometown crowd cheering him on to the popular victory. For Kormann, the 30 lap Modified feature paid $3,000 to win and with Pioneer Pole Buildings posting a $2,000 bonus for a first time winner, his take was $5,000 for his first career Thunder on the Hill Modified victory.

“It’s so awesome to do this in front of this crowd and at this track,” Danner, who started racing NASCAR 358 Modifieds at the one-third-mile dirt oval, stated in victory lane. “This is the most fun I’ve ever had here, and maybe the longest 40-lap run of my life.”

Danner’s win marked the first USAC National Championship win for a Pennsylvania driver since 1999.

Littleton, Colorado’s Carson Garrett led the 24-car field to the drop of the green flag and led the first 10 laps of the event, navigating lapped traffic with Danner right on his tail. The two split a lapped car and swapped the lead four times before settling in just before the halfway point.

With heavy lapped traffic, Brady Bacon, a five-time USAC winner at Grandview, and CJ Leary closed on then-leaders Danner and Garrett igniting a four-car battle for the top spot.

Challenges from the best in the business were no match for Danner, as the Boulevard Truck Repair/E. Schneider & Sons Recycling No. 39 darted in and out of lapped cars widening the gap before a lap 30 caution closed the field.

Danner charged forward at the restart, pulling away from his competition and setting a comfortable pace before the yellow would fly for the final time with two laps remaining.

With one final circuit, Bacon would move into the second position but would not be able to get anywhere near Danner, who sailed onto victory aboard the Fran & Tim Hogue-owned No. 39 machine.

Brady Bacon would settle for the second spot, CJ Leary in third, Carson Garrett in fourth, and Logan Seavey in the fifth position.

Briggs Danner’s win marked the first USAC National Sprint Car Series win for a Pennsylvania driver since Frankie Kerr found victory lane in 1999.

Brady Bacon set a new track record with a lap of 13.341 during USAC AMSOIL National Sprint Car Championship Time Trials besting a decade-old time set by Kevin Thomas Jr.

Eric Kormann claimed the $3,000 win in the 30-lap NASCAR 358 Modified event and picked up an extra $2,000 courtesy of Pioneer Pole Buildings for being a first-time Thunder winner. Kormann started on the pole of the event and held off a hard charge from Grandview regulars Louden Reimert and Jeff Strunk to pick up the win.

The caution flew on lap 7 when Brett Kressley spun and then again on lap 10 when a four pile-up slowed the action for the final time.

As the laps ticked buy, Kormann ran a flawless race with Reimert and Strunk within striking distance with the completion of each lap. With just five laps remaining, Reimert made a run for the lead, then had to regroup to keep from giving up the runner spot to Jeff Strunk.

Kormann’s win marked his first career win at the Grandview Speedway. Louden Reimert finished in second, Jeff Strunk in third, Billy Pauch Jr. in fourth and Duane Howard in fifth.

Just like Danner, Kormann delivered an emotional victory lane celebration with confetti and champagne covering his car as he held the Pioneer Pole Building Winners Check. Bob Greene of Pioneer Pole Building joined Kormann in the victory lane photo shoot.

The NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series continues on Tuesday, July 2 with the $10,000-to-win Hodnett Cup presented by HVAC Partners for Business as part of Pennsylvania Sprint Car Speedweek, with action from both the 410 Sprint Cars and the NASCAR 358 Modifieds.

Kid Cleans Up: Cameron Smith Gets Grove Checkers

18-year old wires for Williams Grove sprints win

Briggs Danner Claims Gallagher Memorial For USAC East

6/7/24

Mechanicsburg – Teenager Cameron Smith wired the field for his sprint car win anywhere, at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night, taking home a total of $6,250 for the victory including bonus money from event sponsor Mamma’s Pizza.

The 18-year old Spring Grove driver held off point leader Freddie Rahmer for the popular victory.

In the USAC East Bill Gallagher Memorial for wingless 360 sprints, sixth starter Briggs Danner took the $5,000 win in honor of his former car owner.

Smith started Rick Lefever’s No. 75 from the outside of the first row in the 25-lap 410 sprint feature and jetted out to the lead over Bryn Gohn when green fell on the field.

East Berlin’s Kody Hartlaub got by Gohn for second on the ninth tour and began his pursuit of the leader while seventh starter Rahmer sat in fifth.

Smith entered the rear of the field on lap 13, shortly before Rahmer drove up to third on lap 15.

With seven laps to go both Hartlaub and Rahmer were a straightaway behind the teenage leader but by the five-to-go point, the pair was clearly closing the gap.

Hartlaub was busy pressuring for the lead when Rahmer got by for second on the 22nd tour but before he could pull a move on Smith for the win, the only caution flag of the race unfurled with two laps to go for a stopped Gohn in the third turn.

The caution cleared the track for leader Smith who sliced across the bottom of the first turn when action resumed before catching the cushion and driving off on the backstretch, opening up some breathing room over Rahmer.

The challenge by Rahmer that many expected over the final two tours never developed as Smith took the win by 1.394 seconds ahead of the Salfordville speedster.

Hartlaub was third followed by Lucas Wolfe and14th starter Troy Wagaman Jr.

Wagaman was the PA Dyno Hard Charger.

Sixth through 10th went to 15th starter Lance Dewease, Devon Borden, TJ Stutts, Austin Bishop and Mike Thompson.

Heats went to Gohn, Smith and Thompson.

Kenny Miller started second in the 25-lap USAC East feature and raced ahead of Tommy Kunsman until the seventh lap when Briggs Danner blasted by for the spot.

It took Danner only two more laps of ripping around the top of the oval to motor by Miller for control and begin driving off from the field.

In the meantime, two-time and defending event winner Alex Bright was working through the field after starting in 15th spot.

Bright was up to fifth with 12 laps to go and was running third with six to go.

However that was as far as Bright would be able to advance as he settled for third behind winner Danner and ninth starter Steve Drevicki.

Danner took his second career Williams Grove win by 3.655 seconds.

Miller was fourth and Christian Bruno finished fifth.

Sixth through 10th went to Joey Amantea, Tommy Kunsman, Carmen Perigo, Ed Aiken and Bruce Buckwalter Jr.

Heats were taken by Bobby Butler and Amantea.

Abbottstown, PA

TROY WAGAMAN CLINCHES $10,119 VICTORY; Scott Fisher Dominates 358 Action

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, June 8 (7PM) ELIJAH HAWKINS MEMORIAL: 410 Sprints [TT] & 358 Sprints

Saturday, June 15 (7PM) 410 Sprints & Appalachian Late Model Speedweek

Saturday, June 22 (7PM) PA SPEEDWEEK TUNE-UP for 410 Sprints [TT] & 358 Sprints [YCRC Night]

Abbottstown, PA (June 2, 2024) – After 35 grueling laps, and holding off the hottest driver in Central PA, Troy Wagaman celebrated with a much deserved wing dance in victory lane after winning the $10,119 Steve Smith Tribute Race, “I was the #19 for a long time and it means a lot to win this race.”

Even from the cockpit of his sprint car, Wagaman knew what a thrilling race it was for the fans, “That was fun Lincoln right there, I hope you guys enjoyed it.”

Saturday night’s win was Wagaman’s second of the year at Lincoln, his first coming at the Ice Breaker to kick off the season. Wagaman has been fast all year and lined up fifth for the start of the feature, “I knew with Freddie starting second and Danny seventh, I had to get there and there early and then dictate the pace and do what I wanted in lapped traffic.” Wagaman’s plan worked and he scored one of the biggest wins of his young career.

It was the Rahmer brothers, Brandon and Freddie, who led the field to the drop of the green flag with pole-sitter Brandon Rahmer leading the field into turn 1 as Tyler Ross moved into second and Freddie Rahmer in third. Ross challenged Brandon for the lead right away but it would take 10 laps before he could make the pass for the top spot. During those 10 laps Freddie and Troy Wagaman were right behind the two front runners reeling them in.

Ross used the bottom of the track to get a nose under Brandon and made the pass for the lead coming out of turn 2. Once Ross got by, both Freddie and Wagaman moved into second and third sending Brandon back to fourth. Wagaman was on the move and got by Freddie for second on lap 12.

After taking over the lead Ross moved to the top of the track with Wagaman using the bottom to get around the track. Wagaman rolled the bottom and got by Ross on lap 16 to take the lead.

While all eyes were on the action at the front of the field, Danny Dietrich was making his way up through the field from his seventh starting spot.

Just as things were getting exciting on the track, the caution flag waved on lap 21 when Glenndon Forsythe slowed on the track. Wagaman had been leading with Ross and Freddie swapping the second spot right behind him. The running order for the top five on the restart was Wagaman, Ross, Rahmer, Dietrich and Cameron Smith.

Wagaman had a great restart and went low into turn 1, Rahmer got high allowing Dietrich to get by for third. Danny then made quick work of Ross and moved into second with 12 laps to go.

Dietrich was following Wagaman’s line around the 3/8-mile oval, running the bottom in turns 1 and 2 and the top in turns 3 and 4, when the caution came out with 9 laps to go. Tim Glatfelter sat spun around in turn 2 with a flat front tire.

The restart with less than 10 laps to go was key for Wagaman to hold off Dietrich’s charge to the front. Wagaman stayed on the bottom with Dietrich trying the top on the restart, giving it everything he had. Dietrich also tried the bottom in turns 3 and 4 but could not make up the ground needed to catch the hooked up #27 Heffner machine.

JJ Loss earned the hard charger bonus driving from 17th to an 11th place finish.

Scott Fisher Dominates 358 Action

Logan Rumsey and Jake Galloway started on the front row of the 20-lap feature Saturday night with Galloway spinning in turns 1 and 2 on the start bringing out the yellow. The field lined up for a complete restart with Adam Carberry moving up to share the front row with Rumsey.

Rumsey and Carberry raced side by side for the race lead with Rumsey holding the advantage at the line. Scott Fisher was running third as the two battled for the lead. Frankie Herr sat backwards in turns 3 and 4 bringing out the caution on lap 2.

Carberry was all over Rumsey on the restart as cars battled three-wide behind them for position. One of those cars was Doug Hammaker, who was making his way up through the field. Jude Siegel and Eric Paxson got together in turn 4 bringing out the yellow on lap 5.

Once again, Carberry looked to the outside of Rumsey on the restart and the two raced wheel to wheel at the line. Carberry took the lead and then Rumsey spun in turns 3 and 4 bringing out the yellow.

Carberry paced the field with Fisher in second and Hammaker in third. Adam got a solid restart with Fisher holding off Hammaker. Fisher had reeled in Carberry and was putting pressure on the leader using the bottom of the track. Fisher moved into the lead with a good run off the bottom of turn 2 with 10 laps to go. After seeing that the bottom was fast, Carberry moved his line down, but Fisher was too far gone. Fisher continued rolling around the bottom and was closing in on lapped traffic as the laps wound down and had caught the tail end of the field with the white flag waving.

Fisher’s victory was his fifth career win in the 358 division at Lincoln.

Next Saturday, June 8, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the Elijah Hawkins Memorial featuring the Gene Latta Ford 410 Sprints and McConkey Insurance & Benefits 358 Sprints. Racing is scheduled for 7PM with pit gates opening at 4:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 5PM.

Wagner Gets Back To Victory Lane, Eckert Charges From 9th to Win, Reed Wins Exciting 305 Feature

Port Royal, PA - June 1st, 2024 - It had been nearly a year since Logan Wagner visited victory lane at Port Royal Speedway, and he ended that drought on June 1st in exciting fashion.

Devin Adams and Gerard McIntyre would lead the field to green in the 25-lap A-main event, and it would be McIntyre who would lead the opening lap.

Lance Dewease, who started in the 3rd spot, would put pressure to McIntyre over the opening 6 laps and would take the lead in turns 3 & 4 with just 18 laps to go.

Logan Wagner, after starting 7th, would find himself 6th when Dewease took the lead, and at this point in the race was when "The Pilot" started to hit his stride.

Wagner would work the top side of the corners to build momentum around the speedway, and over the next 7 laps would pick off cars to find himself in the runner-up spot.

While battling through lapped traffic, Dewease's 3 second lead would be eaten up by Wagner, and Wagner would dispatch of the track's 2nd all-time leading winner with 8 laps remaining.

A caution caused by Derek Hauck with 5 laps remaining would give Dewease one more shot at the lead, but Wagner would continue working the top side of the track to hold on for the $5,000 payday.

"Tonight was all about pulling the trigger and going for it," said Wagner in victory lane. "Tonight I said, we're going back to the way I used to drive this place and just go for it."

Lance Dewease and Chase Dietz would round out the podium. Gerard McIntyre would win the J&S Classics Warrior Award given to a driver who finishes a bit further back in the field decided by pill draw, and Mike Walter would win the night's hard charger courtesy of Valley Supply for driving from 22nd starting spot to 11th.

In super late model competition, Rick Eckert charged from the 9th starting spot to pick up the $4,000 win as well as an extra $300 for winning from 9th or further back per the speedway's rules.

Andrew Yoder and Justin Weaver would make up the front row in the 25 lap A-main with Yoder taking the lead in the opening lap.

Eckert would start to weave his way through the field on lap number 7 when he would pass 3 cars between turn 1 and turn 4 to get to the 6th spot.

Andrew Yoder would open up to a 3 second lead over the first 11 laps but a caution for Chris Casner who spun in turns 1 & 2, would draw the field back together over the next 14 laps.

Over the next 6 laps, the top 5 cars would become Andrew Yoder, Logan Zarin, Justin Weaver, Dylan Yoder and Rick Eckert, and they would all be within a 1-second margin of each other.

Coming to the line with 7 laps to go, Rick Eckert was able to turn on the boosters, getting by both Dylan Yoder and Justin Weaver to move into the top 3 and 3 laps later he would over take Andrew Yoder for the lead.

Once out in front, Rick Eckert would build up to just under a 3-second lead and go on to win the Selinsgrove Ford super late model feature event.

"I felt like I was better than the cars in front of me, but I wasn't sure," said Eckert, "Andrew Yoder started on the front row and that kid is really good. He's got a lot of talent, and he does a great job. I figured in clean air, he'd be gone. The cautions probably worked in my favor to catch him."

Andrew Yoder and Dylan Yoder would round out the podium and Colton Flinner would would the Lauver's Concessions hard charger for going from 21st to 11th.

For the Penns Valley Meat Market 305 sprint car feature event, Austin Reed would start 12th and charge to the front over the course of a 20-lap race to pick up the win.

Owen Dimm would lead the opening 18 laps of the race after starting on the pole. He would be closely challenged by Mike Melair who started to his outside throughout the feature, but while they battled, Austin Reed was charging his way to the front.

With just 2 laps remaining, coming off of turn 2, Reed would charge by both Dimm and Melair, and go on to win.

Dimm and Melair would round out the rest of the top 3 in the 305 A-main event.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in competition on June 8th for Appalachian Mountain Late Model Speedweek which will pay the super late models $5,000 to win, with Weikert Livestock 410 sprint cars and Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models also on the card.

Pittman Scores Williams Grove 8K Sprint Car Payday, Gives Mechanic Davey Brown 90th Birthday Gift

Dirty Deeds 25 For 358s Goes To Matt Findley

5/31/24

Mechanicsburg – It had been eight months since Daryn Pittman last sat in a sprint car, at Williams Grove Speedway, and it was eight years since he last visited victory lane at Williams Grove but that didn’t stop him from walking off with the $8,000 top prize in the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint car feature at the track on Friday night.

In fact, the 45-year old Oklahoman scored a clean sweep of the night aboard the Don Kreitz No. 69K, earning $300 for quick time in time trials before going on to win his heat and then the main event.

And he did it all on a momentous day for his Hall of Fame Mechanic Dave Brown Sr. as the win came on Brown’s milestone 90th birthday.

In the Dirty Deeds 25 for HJ Towing & Recovery 358 sprint cars, Matt Findley scored his first ever checkers after years of trying to the tune of $2,500.

Pittman started third in the 25-lap 410 sprint Hoosier Diamond Series race and watched as Troy Wagaman Jr. and Dylan Cisney took the green from the front row.

Wagaman was in control over Pittman on the third lap when the first yellow flag of the race unfurled with three laps down for a spun Danny Dietrich who was running fourth.

The restart saw only one more lap get completed before Tony Jackson rode the first turn rail and turned over.

Pittman chased Wagaman for the next eight laps before squeezing to Wagaman’s inside in the second corner to get command.

Wagaman was hard to shake however as the Hanover pilot stuck close to Pittman for the next several laps as the pair worked through traffic.

However as the laps wore on Pittman began sneaking away only to see another yellow flag bunch the field with four laps to go.

The caution was for a slowing Freddie Rahmer who had been racing with Dylan Cisney for third when the pair made contact, causing both of their mounts to suffer damage.

Pittman pulled away on the restart to a 3.413 second lead at the finish for the 18th Williams Grove sprint car win of his career.

Wagaman was second followed by Lance Dewease, TJ Stutts and Australian Ryan Newton.

Newton’s run was a career-best at the oval and earned him the PA Dyno Hard Charger Award after starting 12th in the field.

Sixth through 10th went to Lucas Wolfe, Devon Borden, Jeff Halligan, Danny Dietrich and Ryan Taylor.

Heats went to Pittman, Dietrich and Stutts.

Pittman’s fast time clocked in at 17.428 seconds.

Chad Criswell initially started third in the Dirty Deeds 25 but ended up on the pole thanks to a pair of false starts that saw the second row become the first.

Criswell seemed to have the field covered, pulling away to a straightaway advantage at one point before traffic entered the picture.

And in that traffic Criswell got fouled up behind a suddenly slowing lapped car, seemingly getting trapped as the field sped by, led by Matt Findley.

Findley went on to score the first win of his career ever at Williams Grove Speedway.

The Dillsburg veteran took the win by .510 seconds over Steve Owings who closed to within car lengths at the finish.

Derek Locke, Chris Frank and Cody Fletcher completed the top five.

Sixth through 10th went to Logan Rumsey, Adam Carberry, Doug Hammaker, Criswell and Preston Lattomus.

Heats went to Jude Siegel, Tyler Ulrich and Criswell with Hammaker taking the consolation.

Hammaker was the PA Dyno and Dirty Deeds Hard Charger while Cameron Merriman earned the Dirty Deeds Hard Luck Award.

“IT’S ABOUT DAMN TIME”, EXCLAIMS BRENT MARKS AFTER SCORING HIS FIRST WIN AT GRANDVIEW TUESDAY NIGHT IN THE LEVAN MACHINE & TRUCK EQUIPMENT AND RICH MAR FLORIST KUBOTA HIGH LIMITS SPRINT EVENT, MARKS POCKETS $22,000 INCLUDING PIONEER POLE BUILDING BONUS

BECHTELSVILLE, PA (May 28, 2024) – Brent Marks of Myerstown, PA claimed his first NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series event win in dramatic fashion on Tuesday night at Grandview Speedway. The event, presented by Levan Machine and Truck Equipment and RichMar Florist, featured the highly competitive Kubota High Limit 410 Sprint Car Series at the Bechtelsville oval.

Marks’ victory – his second on the Kubota High Limit Sprint Car Series season – was hard fought. He regained the lead on the final lap, sneaking by to score the $20,000 top prize, along with a $2,000 bonus from Pioneer Pole Buildings as a Pennsylvania-based racer.

“It’s about damn time we won a race here,” Marks, a veteran at the Grandview oval, stated during victory lane ceremonies. “What an amazing night, this has been a long time coming and this win means a lot to me.” Marks, a Pennsylvania local has been to Grandview numerous times but never made it to victory lane. On Tuesday night, he changed all that topping a field of some forty-three 410 sprint cars.

Starting on the pole after winning the FK Rod Ends Dash, Marks set a blistering pace early in the main event, closely followed by Brad Sweet of Grass Valley, CA.

The pair weaved in and out of lapped traffic, creating thrilling moments as the lap counter clicked away. Slower cars erased the gap between the top five competitors which included defending race winner Rico Abreu and High Limit Series Standings leader and Tyler Courtney.

With top-five nose-to-tail, Marks shot to the inside lane to avoid an upcoming lapped car and with just 10 laps remaining, allowed Brad Sweet to take the top spot. Sweet’s lead was short-lived as a few circuits later his car got sideways in turn 4, handing the lead back to Marks and giving Courtney the second position.

Capitalizing on difficult-to-navigate lapped traffic, Courtney charged hard into the lead with 3 laps remaining taking the white flag for the final lap as the race leader. He set his sights on the $20,000 payday and darted to the high side of one-third-mile oval to get around a lapped car.

“I got impatient early on and lost the lead to Brad. Then got it back. When Tyler got by me, I thought ‘Not this again.’ and just tried to run as hard as I could to stay on his bumper and hope he would leave a door open.”

Marks remained relentless, seizing the opportunity when Courtney misjudged a move around a lapped car. Marks snuck inside, battling side-by-side down the backstretch and ultimately edged him to the finish as the checkered flag flew, claiming his first win at Grandview Speedway.

Courtney would settle for second in the finish with Abreu in third, Sweet in fourth and Corey Day in the fifth position.

Marks swept the events he competed in winning the FK Rod Ends and his heat race event. Brad Sweet set the quick time with a lap of 11.848 around the one-third mile speedway.

Gage Phillips of Fleetwood, PA won the 12-Lap F&L Doors Outlaw Vintage Racing Series Modified feature event by a full straightaway lead. Mike Stofflet finished in second, followed by Rich Baker, Kevin Kuser, and Dom DeGlas. The Sportsman portion of the Outlaw Vintage Racing Series doubleheader was won by Sven Olsen of Virginville, PA. Finishing in second was J.R. Roth, Scott Schaeffer, and Jake Foster rounded out the field.

The NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series returns on Tuesday, June 11 when Pioneer Pole Buildings presents the 17th running of the Jesse Hockett Classic for the AMSOIL USAC National Sprint Car Series with 40 Laps and $6,000 to win, plus the 358 NASCAR Modifieds in a 30 Lap, $3,000 to win.

Danny Dietrich Keeps Bob Weikert Memorial in PA

Port Royal, PA - May 26th, 2024 -- The richest paying race in Port Royal Speedway track history lived up to the billing on Saturday night as the PA Posse dueled with the drivers from Kubota High Limit Racing, and Danny Dietrich led the charge and claimed victory at the end of 40 laps.

Dietrich, who was sporting the Weikert Livestock number 29 and colors for the weekend's event, would roll off 3rd to start the A-main event. Through the opening 15 laps, he would run in the 4th spot, when a restart with 25 to go allowed him to drive by the pole sitter and leader through the first portion of the race Devon Borden. The pass would move Dietrich up to 2nd as High Roller with High Limit Racing Tyler Courtney would take the lead from Borden on the ensuing restart.

A flat tire for Corey Day would bring the field back together for a restart with 22 laps remaining which would bring the Weikert 29 alongside the NOS Energy Drink 7BC.

Once racing resumed, Anthony Macri would get by Dietrich to move into the runner up spot but the two PA drivers would battle for position for the next 9 laps without ever losing ground on Tyler Courtney in the top spot.

Dietrich would take the runner up spot back from Macri with 13 laps remaining and set his sights on the top spot. He would make the pass for the lead in turns 3 and 4 and come across the line with 10 laps remaining. He would open up his lead to over 2 seconds, but he wouldn't walk away with the win without some late race dramatics.

With 4 laps remaining, and Tyler Courtney closing in, a caution caused by Zeb Wise would bring the field back to the tail of Danny Dietrich.

Over the next 3 laps, Dietrich would work the bottom and middle lanes in the corners and Courtney would run the extreme top side trying to mount momentum to get around the driver from Gettysburg, PA.

As the drivers were going into turn 3 on the white flag lap, Tyler Courtney would drive to the inside and pass Dietrich for the lead, but as soon as he did, the caution flag would wave for Devon Borden who sat still at the top side of turn 4, giving Dietrich the lead back for a green/white/checkered finish.

As the green flag waved on the single file restart, Dietrich was able to pull away from the field behind him as Rico Abreu attempted a slide job on Courtney giving Dietrich enough space to cross the line in first for the $75,000 payday.

"I was just trying to drive every lap as hard as I could," said Dietrich in victory lane. "I slowed up a bit in turn 3 coming to the checkered because I ran out of fuel. I wanted to do some donuts but I don't have enough fuel to do it."

"Tonight was about 75 grand," said runner-up Tyler Courtney. "It sucks we couldn't finish that lap, but that's how racing goes."

Dietrich would ultimately take home $76,500 dollars as he was also the Durst Dice Roll driver after a fan rolled a 3 in victory lane meaning the fan and Dietrich, who started 3rd, would split $3,000 if Dietrich would win from that position.

In Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late model competition, Brad McGinnis put the rest of the division in his rearview mirror as he would lead every lap and win by over a 6 second margin.

Trent Brenneman would finish in 2nd and Casey Steinhoff would finish 3rd.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in racing action on Saturday June 1st with Weikert Livestock 410 sprint cars, Selinsgrove Ford super late models, and Penns Valley Meat Market PA Sprint Series 305 sprint cars. Racing will get underway at 7PM.

Kubota High Limit Racing will stay in the PA borders and head to Grandview Speedway on Tuesday May 28th for their Midweek Money Series worth $20,000.

Danny Dietrich Pockets $10,000 Trone Tribute Loot At Williams Grove

Logan Spahr claims 305s

5/24/24

Mechanicsburg – Danny Dietrich started on the pole and walked off with $10,039 in Friday night’s Hoosier Diamond Series John Trone Tribute Race for Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars at Williams Grove Speedway.

Dietrich led all 25 laps to pick up the 30th overall win of his career at the track.

In the 20-lap PASS 305 sprints main event, Logan Spahr took the lead on lap 11 to pick up the victory.

Lucas Wolfe beat Danny Dietrich back to the line on the initial lap of the 410 sprint feature for what would have been the lead however the red flag appeared before the entire field could complete the circuit.

The stoppage found the cars of Brandon Rahmer and Lance Dewease connected on the frontstretch while both Dylan Norris and Freddie Rahmer go t knocked out as well.

This gave Dietrich another shot at the opening lap and he made good on the opportunity by beating Wolfe off of turn four when the green flag again unfurled.

Wolfe and invader Spencer Bayston gave chase during the early going with Bayston working relentlessly on Wolfe for second.

Dietrich entered the rear of the field with 10 laps recorded but a caution flag on lap 11 wiped out a 3.075 second advantage he had built over the field.

Bayston again went to work on Wolfe for second when action resumed and got to his outside in the second corner for the spot with 11 laps to go only to see Wolfe reclaim the spot as the pair came back to the stripe.

A second and final caution flag regrouped the field with 10 laps to go and although Wolfe tried to stay close he was again caught up in trying to fend off Bayston who eventually took the spot with three laps to go.

But by that time Dietrich was too far away for Indiana’s Bayston to mount a charge.

Dietrich took the checkers 3.427 seconds ahead of Bayston with Wolfe, Cory Eliason and Chase Dietz completing the top five.

Sixth through 10th went to Anthony Macri, Deveon Borden, Kyle Reinhardt, Brian Brown and TJ Stutts.

Heats went to Rico Abreu, Bayston, Wolfe and Dietrich.

Cameron Smith won the consolation race.

Fast time was set by Cory Eliason with a lap of 17.898 seconds.

Kyle Moody was the PA Dyno Hard Charger.

Josh Beamer started on the pole and led the first half of the 305 sprint main before Logan Spahr drove by for control and the win.

He amassed a 5.571 second lead over the field before the finish.

Beamer was second followed by Christian Rumsey, Mike Melair and Erin Statler.

Rumsey started 14th in the field.

Sixth through 10th went to Kenny Heffner, Danny Buccafusca, Drew Young, Andrew Boyer and Owen Dimm.

Heats went to Boyer and Heffner.

Mechanicsburg, PA (May 23, 2024) – The 2024 PA Sprint Car Speedweek is set to be the most lucrative in the series' history. Thanks to growing sponsorship, including returning presenting sponsor Red Robin Gourmet Burgers and Brews, the ten-race series now guarantees a minimum winner’s prize of $10,000. This year’s lineup features eight $10,000-to-win events, the prestigious Mitch Smith Memorial at Williams Grove on July 5 offering $20,000 to the victor, and the highly anticipated 25th annual Kevin Gobrecht Memorial at Lincoln Speedway on June 29, boasting an impressive $25,000 winner’s share. The Kevin Gobrecht Memorial isn't just the highest-paying race to win to date; it also boasts the largest single-race purse in Speedweek history, totaling $55,650.

In addition to the outstanding race day payoffs, C&D Rigging has returned as a sponsor to boost the point series payoff to $30,000 to be paid to fifteen drivers. First through fifth in the final point standings will collect $6,000, $3,000, $2,700, $2,500, and $2,200 respectively. The big increase is the bonus for the next ten drivers in the point standings who compete in every Speedweek event. Those bonus payoffs will range from $1,800 to $1,000. All events must be completed for the total of $30,000 to be paid. A total of over $353,500 will be awarded throughout the week, including $30,000 from the point fund, $323,500 in total purses, and additional contingency prizes each night.

A minimum of 7 events must be completed for the bonus. If multiple drivers have all top ten finishes, the highest point finisher receives the $5,000 bonus. If no driver records all top ten finishes, the driver with most top ten finishes receives $1,000. In the event of a tie for most top ten finishes, the highest driver in final points will receive the $1,000 bonus. Drivers must compete in all events to qualify for the bonus. The 2022 Speedweek champion Brent Marks captured the award on his way to the title and last year’s Speedweek champion, Anthony Macri, took home $4,000 in the bonus even with multiple rainouts.

New this year, the York County Racing Club is offering a $100 bonus for the first non-qualifier that is a dues paying member to the Club.

Trone History In Sprinting Will Be Honored Friday At Williams Grove 10K To Win John Trone Tribute Race Is May 24

5/19//24

Mechanicsburg – The career of long-time sprint car owner John Trone of York will be feted this Friday night at Williams Grove Speedway when the $10,039-to-win John Trone Tribute race for 410 sprint cars is staged as part of the Hoosier Diamond Series and presented by HVAC Distributors.

The total purse for the 25-lap main event for the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprints is nearly $30,000!

The Trone name’s history in the sport dates back to 1955 when John’s father Ray Trone of York began fielding a No. 39 car on local dirt tracks flying the banner of the family business, Trone’s Sunoco.

Ray Trone experienced success for the next 17 years with drivers like Dave Leppo, Bobby Hersh, Johnny Dubendorf, Ed Zirkle, Tommie Spriggle and others.

However the elder Trone retired from the sport midway through the 1972 season and the name disappeared from the scene until John Trone emerged in a sponsorship role with TJ Stutts some 33 years later.

Trone became a full-fledged owner for Stutts beginning in 2007 and for the majority of the last 17 years has kept the familiar No. 39 on the track and in winner’s circles.

At Williams Grove Trone scored the 2012 overall track title with Greg Hodnett at the wheel to go along with the Diamond Series title the same season.

Trone and Hodnett were also the Pennsylvania Speedweek titlists in 2013, Keystone Cup champions in 2012, Thunder on the Hill champions at Grandview Speedway in both 2012 and 2013 and series champs at Selinsgrove Speedway in 2012.

Other Trone winners through the seasons aside from Hodnett have been Stutts, Keith Kauffman, Doug Esh, Tim Glatfelter, Cory Haas and Chase Dietz.

Additional drivers have included Brent Marks, Alan Krimes, Cale Thomas, Jason Solwold, Justin Peck, Cameron Smith, Troy Wagaman Jr, Kyle Moody, Garrett Williamson, Dominic Melair and Lynton Jeffrey.

Australian standout Callum Williamson is the current pilot of Trone’s mount at Williams Grove and across the region.

Several Trone drivers including Stutts, Dietz, Haas, Wagaman and Callum Williamson plus mechanic Kevin Frey will gather in the infield prior to the Trone Tribute race on Friday for interviews, beginning at approximately 5:40.

Adult general admission for May 24 is $30 with students ages 13-20 admitted for just $10.

Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

Courtney Picks Up Win in Weikert Warmup

For the third time in five races at Port Royal Speedway, the winning Weikert Livestock 410 sprint car driver started from 9th or further back to pick up the win and claim an extra $300 on top of their winnings. Tyler Courtney was the driver on May 18th to do just that as he prepared for a bigger weekend to come at The Speed Palace.

Courtney would start on the outside of the 5th row and charge his way into the top 5 inside the first 4 laps. Garrett Bard, in his second year of full time 410 sprint car racing, would start on the pole of the A-main event and would lead the opening 17 laps of the race.

Bard would battle with the driver of the Clauson-Marshall 7BC through the corners of the speedway, but the Kubota High Limit Racing driver would overtake the Port Royal Speedway regular in the third turn and not look back.

Courtney would take home a $5,000 winner's check as well as earn an extra $300 for his driver to the front from his 10th place starting spot on top of $500 courtesy of Valley Supply for being the night's hard charging driver. His check at the end of the evening would total $5,800.

"That was the reason for coming here tonight," said Courtney in victory lane when talking about making the unscheduled trip to Port Royal Speedway. "I'm excited for next weekend and seeing this place packed full of fans."

"We spent the first 3 years getting our butts kicked here in Pennsylvania," added Courtney, "to be able to end the year the way we did here last year and come out strong here again this season makes you feel good. The Weikert is a really big race and the Tuscarora 50 at the end of the year so this is a good place to be good at."

Spencer Bayston, also a Kubota High Limit Racing regular, would come from 8th to finish in the runner up spot, and Austin Bishop would finish in 3rd. Mark Smith would win the J&S Classics Warrior Award after Tyler Courtney pulled the 23 chip in victory lane.

In Selinsgrove Ford super late model competition, there were many movers and shakers throughout the main event, but it came down to the final corner which saw Colton Flinner overtake Trever Feathers and pick up the $5,000 check at the end of the night.

Flinner, who was the track champion in 2022, hasn't won at Port Royal Speedway since the loss of his father who battled cancer and was and
continues to be a large part of the driver's passion for racing.

Bryan Bernheisel and Gary Stuhler would make up the front row in the spring championship race, but it would be fourth starting Trever Feathers who would take the lead off of turn number 4 and lead all but the final lap in the race.

Colton Flinner would start 9th but fall back to 11th before he began his slow charge to the front with 17 laps remaining.

Over the course of the next 17 laps, Flinner would begin picking his way through the rest of the top 10, and would find himself restarting in 3rd with just 4 laps to go.

On the ensuing restart, Flinner would battle with second place running Dylan Yoder and would get by the driver of the 24 car off of the fourth corner with just 2 laps remaining as he crossed the line.

He would then set his sights on the leader Trever Feathers in an attempt to rope him in and pick up the big payday at Port Royal Speedway. Coming down the backstretch, the 2 cars were side by side battling for position, but it would be the 48 of Flinner who would cross the line in first position, leading the deciding lap.

When the driver from Allison Park, PA pulled into victory lane, he took a moment to try to gather his emotions and thoughts as he took in what it was like to be in victory lane at Port Royal without his dad.

"This means the world to me. I wish my dad was here, I miss him like crazy," said Flinner in his winning interview. "I doubt myself this whole year that I would be able to do this without him. My dad's my best friend and doing this without him is incredibly hard."

When talking about his performance in the 25-lap A-main Flinner said: "Honestly this is the worst car I've ever driven in my life. I had a handful. I didn't have powersteering. I don't know how I did. My dad, that's how I did it."

Trever Feathers would finish the race in the second position and Dylan Yoder would hold on to 3rd holding off the night's Lauver's Concessions hard charging car Coleby Frey who started in the 22nd starting position.

For the Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models, Trever Feathers would start on the pole immediately after finishing the super late model race, but it would be Ryan Zook would would claim his second victory of 2024 at Port Royal Speedway.

On the opening set of corners, there would be a three wide battle for the lead between Feathers, Jaxton Garmin, and Trent Brenneman who started in the 3rd position, that would see Brenneman come out in front to lead the opening lap.

Brenneman would lead the opening 10 laps of the race before Zook would overtake him in turn 2 and hold on for the win.

Zook on top of his win, set 2 new track records at Port Royal Speedway, setting the new 8 lap track record at 2:30, topping the old record held by Andrew Yoder by 5 full seconds as well as the new 20 lap track record at 6:38.443, topping the old record by just under 22 full seconds.

"You can't complain about the start of the season we've had so far," said Zook in victory lane, "It's tough to keep this momentum, but we're going to ride this wave until it crashes."

Jaxton Garmin and Trent Brenneman would round out the podium finish for the limited late models.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in action on May 25th and 26th for the Bob Weikert Memorial weekend with High Limit Racing. Saturday will include the Selinsgrove Ford super late models, and Sunday, on top of the $75,000 to win main event, the Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models will also join the card.

Lucas Wolfe Holds Off Rahmer For Williams Grove 410 Sprint Win

Andy Best notches first win in 358s

5/17/24

Mechanicsburg – Lucas Wolfe held off the late race challenges of Freddie Rahmer to win the 25-lap 410 sprint car feature at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night.

The victory was the 24th of his career at the track.

Delaware’s Andy Best took the win in the 20-lap 358 sprint car feature to close the night, notching his first career oval checkers in the division.

Wolfe led the first two laps from the second starting spot in the 410 sprint main before a light rain halted the event.

Fortunately, the shower was brief and the race was able to resume within 30 minutes with Wolfe racing ahead of Chad Trout, Kyle Reinhardt and Rahmer.

Only two more laps could be completed before Tony Jackson crashed in the third turn, slowing the pace.

Rahmer got by Reinhardt on the restart before the pace was again slowed with seven laps away, this time for a spun Jeff Halligan.

Wolfe continued to set the pace at the halfway point but by lap 15 Rahmer was racing with Trout for the second spot, which he was able to secure with seven laps to go.

And by that time Wolfe was racing through the rear of the field, allowing Rahmer to close in, setting up a battle for control.

On more than one occasion Rahmer was able to work alongside of Wolfe for the top spot only to see Wolfe hold on and surge back into control.

The pair set a torrid pace through traffic all the way to the finish line with Rahmer mounting a furious final lap, final turn bid for the win.

But a last lap pass was not to be as Wolfe took the victory by .318 seconds over a challenging Rahmer.

Troy Wagaman Jr. was third followed by Trout and PA Dyno Hard Charger Matt Campbell.

Sixth through 10th went to Devon Borden, Reinhardt, Logan Wagner, Justin Whittall and Dylan Cisney.

Heats went to Reinhardt, Wolfe and Borden with Ryan Taylor taking the consolation race.

Wagaman set fast time in warm-ups with a lap of 16.609 seconds.

Andy Best annihilated the field in his heat race and then picked up where he let off when it came time for the limited sprint main event.

Best entered the rear of the field on the eighth lap but saw his pace halted at the halfway point for a terrible backstretch flip by Samuel Miller who was running 10th.

Luckily Miller was able to climb from his car under his own power.

Best went on to snag the win by .400 seconds over Derek Locke.

Steve Owings, Chase Gutshall and Logan Rumsey completed the top five.

Sixth through 10th went to Wyatt Hinkle, Kyle Spence, Doug Hammaker, Dwight Leppo and Adam Carberry, who was the PA Dyno Hard Charger.

Heats were taken by Rumsey, Best and Locke with Carberry copping the consolation race.

Williams Grove Morgan Cup Is This Week

Outlaws and Pennsylvania Posse match-up on deck

5/5//24

Mechanicsburg – The NOS Energy Drink World of Outlaws Sprint Cars Series is slated to take on the Lawrence Chevrolet Pennsylvania Posse 410 sprint cars this week at Williams Grove Speedway, slated for Friday and Saturday, May 10 and 11.

The showdown between the drivers from both circuits will take place during HVAC Distributors Morgan Cup weekend at the Grove.

Action both nights will get underway at 7:30 pm.

The Friday and Saturday main events will be 25 laps in distance with the big money up for grabs on Saturday.

With $12,000 on the line Friday, Saturday’s finale will pay $15,000 to win plus another $5,000 for Morgan Cup bragging rights.

The Morgan Cup is contested each season in honor of late track owner Morgan Hughes.

Bragging rights and the trophy Morgan Cup itself will spend the next year resting at the home base of whichever series’ driver cops the Saturday main, either at outlaws headquarters or at the Williams Grove office.

David Gravel and Donny Schatz are at the top of the outlaws series point standings so far this early season.

Freddie Rahmer is the current Williams Grove Speedway points leader over Anthony Macri with three wins between them.

Macri has been busy so far this season, taking big money shows both on the road and during action in the mid-state.

With seven wins already this season, Macri has scored a 12K payday in Texas while taking wins around home worth $20,000 and $15,000 each.

The Dillsburg driver is the top local contender to upend the outlaws in the Morgan Cup.

On the outlaws side, Gravel, Schatz and Carson Macedo have to be viewed as top contenders.

Gravel is in the middle of a hot streak currently having taken two of the last three outlaws races that have been run.

Still winless this season, outlaws driver Logan Schuchart is the defending Morgan Cup champion.

Adult general admission both nights is set at $35 with students ages 13-20 admitted for just $15.

Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

Fireworks are part of both racing programs.

Mechanicsburg – Lance Dewease scored the first career 410 sprint car win for car owner Barry Shearer at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night, taking $6,000 for the 115th career victory of his own driving career at the oval in Lawrence Chevrolet sprint car action.

Dewease’s win came in the Hoosier Diamond Series World of Outlaws tune-up event as the track and competitors prep for the upcoming May 10 and 11 two-day outlaws stand at Williams Grove.

In the HJ Towing and Recovery 358 sprint main, it was Doug Hammaker leading flag to flag to pick up the win.

The start of the 25-lap 410 sprint main was slowed when TJ Stutts looped his car on the opening lap.

Chad Trout, who started on the pole, led the first five circuits over Anthony Macri before Dylan Norris slowed on the backstretch.

And then three laps later the pace was slowed again, this time for a spun Callum Williamson.

After setting quick time earlier in the night, Macri appeared poised to make a bid for control of the race moments later when he suddenly slowed on the ninth tour and pulled pitside.

During the caution period, Chase Dietz who had inherited second, was penalized two spots for being out of line for the previous two restarts.

This placed Lance Dewease in second for the new green but Trout pulled away when action resumed, leaving Lance far behind.

However as the race worked into its final stages, Dewease began circling the track faster and faster and at the same time leader Trout began struggling to work his way through the second corner.

This gave Dewease the chance he needed and the Fayetteville flyer dive-bombed Trout for the lead with a third turn move on the 21st lap but before the circuit could be scored another caution flag slowed the pace.

This placed Trout back at the point with Dewease and last week’s winner Troy Wagaman Jr. giving chase.

Trout would survive at the front for tow more laps before trying to slam the door in the first turn on lap 23.

And with that Dewease simply changed lanes and rallied to his outside in the second corner to blast out front and to the win by 2.472 seconds.

Wagaman would end up second followed by Dietz, 15th starter Devon Borden and Freddie Rahmer.

A faltering Trout rode home sixth followed by Danny Dietrich, Logan Wagner, Aaron Bollinger and Justin Whittall.

Dewease credited Trout for having the fastest car in the main event.

Heats went to Stutts, Wagaman and Dietz with Norris taking the B Main.

Trout earned the pole for the feature by claiming the dash.

Macri set fast time in qualifying with a lap of 16.766 seconds.

Doug Hammaker, the defending 358 sprint car track champion, started on the pole of the 20-lap feature for the division and was never heeded for the victory.

He raced through traffic during the final nine circuits to get his 11th career checkers at the track.

Nat Tuckey chased Hammaker the entire distance before finishing second.

Cole Young finished third followed by Chase Gutshall and Adam Carberry.

Sixth through 10th went to Cody Fletcher, Kyle Spence, Derek Locke, Seth Schnoke and Justin Foster.

Heats were taken by Logan Rumsey, Carberry and Spence with Preston Lattomus taking the consolation race.

Macri 3-peats Keith Kauffman Classic, Amantea and Perigo Win Wingless Thrillers

It was a test of wills at Port Royal Speedway as a part of the Keith Kauffman Classic on Saturday April 27th. Anthony Macri battled to win his 3rd straight and 4th overall Keith Kauffman Classic presented by Valley Supply and Joey Amantea and Craig Perigo would win tight contests in their respective wingless classes.

The start of the Weikert Livestock A-main would start with carnage where multiple cars would get upside down and torn apart in turn 1 collecting the likes of Lance Dewease, Austin Bishop, AJ Flick, Steve Buckwalter, Jeff Halligan, and Callum Williamson.

Once the wreckage cleared, Logan Wagner and Chase Dietz would lead the field back to green with 30 laps still to be run.

Macri who started in 4th, would nearly see his race come to an end with 17 laps remaining when he made contact with a lapped car of Aaron Bollinger who would flip in turn 2 and collect Logan Wagner in the process.

Dietz would lead the feature event for the opening 16 laps of the race when his left rear tire would tear to shreds and ending his night in the process, allowing Macri in the 39M to inherit the lead.

It wouldn't be smooth sailing for the driver out of Dillsburg, PA as TJ Stutts would make a charge and pass Macri with off of turn 2 with 13 laps remaining.

Stutts would lead the next 5 laps before Macri would overtake the top spot back in turn 1 and run away to pick up the win by over 1.8 seconds and take home the $15,000 payday courtesy of Valley Supply.

"It took us a couple laps to get our car going," said Macri in victory lane. "He had a really good restart and he went up to the top after that. Clean air is very important on big tracks now. I knew I wasn't going to be able to be very good following him on the top, so I pulled my wing back a little bit and tried to work the bottom. I got close enough to him coming down the front stretch to throw a slider on him and just knew I had to keep my momentum up the rest of the race and here we are."

In USAC East Coast Wingless 360 competition, fans were in for a classic feature event as they saw the top 2 cars in the series of Alex Bright and Briggs Danner spin each other out in turn 2 and allowed Joey Amantea and Christian Bruno trade the top spot lap after lap.

Amantea and Bruno would inherit the top 2 spots with 10 laps remaining and for those final 10 circuits, they would trade the lead over and over again.

Christian Bruno would lead the field with 6 laps to go coming to a restart and would battle with Amantea until Amantea took the lead for the final time with 3 laps remaining.

Bruno would attempt to run down Amantea in the final 3 circuits but would have to battle with Steven Drivicki and Carmen Perigo. Carmen Perigo would ultimately overtake Bruno for the runner up spot but it was Joey Amantea would claim the $2,000 paycheck at the end of the 25-lap A-main.

In wingless super sportsman competition, Craig Perigo, Cliff Brian Jr., Steve Wilbur and Trent Yoder would all battle for the top spot in the final 8 laps.

Perigo would hold off multiple attempts from Cliff Brian with Wilbur nipping on his heels throughout the event while Yoder would take advantage on a late race restart to get by Wilbur for the final podium spot.

Perigo met every attempt for the lead with good track position and would hold on for the win.

Port Royal Speedway will be back in competition on Sunday April 28th with the Lucas Oil Late Model Dirt Series for the Battle in the Borough worth $10,000 to win partnered with the Zimmerman Truck Repair Limited Late Models racing for $2,000 to win.

Pits will open at 3PM, general admission at 4PM, hot laps will begin at 5PM and racing at 6PM.

Pit passes will cost $40, general admission $30, students between the ages of 13 and 18 are $20, and kids 12 and under are free.

Wagaman Wins Williams Grove Sprints For Career Third, Trent Brenneman Gets Limited Late Models

4/26/24

Mechanicsburg – Troy Wagaman Jr. of Hanover scored his first Williams Grove Speedway win of the season on Friday night in Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint car action.

Wagaman took home $5,000 for his third career oval victory.

The Topless 25 for limited late models was won by Trent Brenneman of Port Royal for his first ever win at the speedway where his late grandfather Butch Renninger owns four career super late model checkered flags.

The initial start of the 25-lap sprint car main was yellow-flagged when Ryan Wilson turned sideways on the frontstretch.

Second starter Lucas Wolfe drove into the lead when action resumed with third starter Wagaman giving chase.

Wagaman wasted little time challenging Wolfe for the lead as he first got around him for the top spot on the fourth lap only to see Wolfe’s No. 5W reclaim control at the start/finish line.

Wagaman then went low in the first and second turns as the pair raced through the corners to drive into control and a lead that he would not relinquish.

The new leader’s pace was slowed two laps later for a spun Matt Campbell.

At the halfway point pacesetter Wagaman was well out in front with Wolfe still racing second and polesitter Justin Whittall holding down third.

Wagaman entered the rear of the field to contend with traffic on lap 16 but proved to easily work the backmarkers.

But a mistake by Whittall in the third turn with three laps to go would again regroup the field when the New Jersey driver backed his car into the outside fence, ending his good run.

Wagaman easily survived the restart to take the win by .940 seconds ahead of Wolfe.

Freddie Rahmer moved from fifth to third on the final restart with Chase Dietz and Devon Borden completing the top five.

Sixth through 10th went to Ryan Taylor, Steve Buckwalter, 23rd starter Anthony Macri, Dylan Norris and Dylan Cisney.

Heats went to Borden, Cameron Smith, Whittall and Dietz with Callum Williamson taking the last chance race.

Macri was the fast qualifier in timed practice laps with a tour of 16.401 seconds and earned the PA Dyno Hard Charger Award in the feature .

Brenneman would wire the field for a $2,500 payday in the Topless 25 for limited lates.

He was chased early by Andrew Yoder before Yoder began a duel with Ryan Zook for second.

Yoder would eventually get sidelined and DJ Myers would pick up where he let off in the chase for the leader.

Brenneman had to fend off Myers’ challenges during the last 10 laps in order to pull away to a 1.063 second win.

Devin Hart was third followed by Zook and Dan Zechman.

Sixth through 10th went to Devin Frey, Shawn Shoemaker, Taylor Farling, Mike Walls and Wes Bonebrake.

Heats were taken by Hart, Brenneman and Zook with Mike Walls taking the consolation race.

Brenneman set fast time with a lap of 20.513 seconds.

ANTHONY MACRI COMES BACK TO PA AND SCORES $20,000 WELDON STERNER WIN; Rookie Ayden Hare Impresses in First 358 Victory

UPCOMING SCHEDULE:

Saturday, April 27 (6PM) 410 Sprints & 358 Sprints

Saturday, May 4 (7PM) 410 Sprints [TT] & 358 Sprints [Summer Series] plus York County Racing Club Night

Wednesday, May 8 (7:30PM) World of Outlaws Gettysburg Clash

Abbottstown, PA (April 20, 2024) – After a trip to the Midwest and a High Limit Racing feature win in Texas, Anthony Macri made the trip back home for Saturday’s $20,000 to win Weldon Sterner Memorial. The 20th Weldon Sterner Memorial was originally scheduled for the 2023 season and after two rainouts in 2023, the marquee event kicked off the big money races in Central PA for 2024.

After winning his heat race, Macri drew the pole for the start of the 40-lap feature in the redraw. Anthony shot out to the lead and after the halfway point, moved to the top of the track and ran his signature line against the wall. “Honestly, I think running out on the road and running some of the tracks we ran made me more comfortable running the wall like that. Being on the road can be stressful at times but it pays off when we come back home.”

There was excitement before the green flag waved for the start of the $20,000 to win Weldon Sterner Memorial when Danny Dietrich, who was slated to start fifth, went to the pits after not firing on the track. The Gary Kauffman Racing team thrashed on the car but to no avail, as Danny was not able to make the call.

Anthony Macri and Ryan Newton led the field to the green flag for the start of the 40-lap feature. Macri shot to the lead with Newton in second and Freddie Rahmer in third. Troy Wagaman challenged Freddie for third and had it by a nose at the line on lap 2. Rahmer took the position back on lap 3.

Cory Haas spun in turn 1 after contact with the inside wall bringing out the yellow on lap 3.

The top five for the early race restart were Macri, Newton, Freddie, Wagaman and Lucas Wolfe.

Macri drove through the middle of turns 1 and 2 with Newton opting for the bottom. Rahmer closed in on Newton and was putting the heat on him for second. Both Kyle Moody and Matt Campbell were working their way up through the field and got into a three-car battle with Billy Dietrich for sixth.

The leaders entered lapped traffic on lap 11. Rahmer used lapped traffic to reel in Newton and made the pass for second on lap 12. Freddie then went to work closing in on Macri. Two lapped cars were battling for position in front of Macri and Rahmer was using the bottom to gain on Anthony when the yellow came out on lap 18 for debris on the front stretch.

Macri drove through the middle of turns 1 and 2 and Rahmer was on the bottom for the restart and was able to stick with Macri. Wagaman got by Newton for third.

Macri was doing what he does best, riding the wall around the 3/8-mile oval.

Lapped traffic came into play again on lap 25, but this time it did not slow Macri down.

Tyler Ross fell off the pace and stopped on the front stretch bringing out a caution on lap 33. With seven laps to go, the top five for the restart were Macri, Rahmer, Wolfe Wagaman and Newton.

Rahmer tried a groove higher than Macri through the turns on the restart to no avail. With the laps winding down, Wolfe was closing in on Rahmer and got to his bumper as the white flag waved.

Still riding the wall, Macri took the checkered 2.412 seconds ahead of Rahmer. Wolfe crossed the line third and Wagaman was fourth. Newton completed the top five.

TJ Stutts was the Hard Charger, driving from 23rd to 11th and Danny Dietrich was given the Hard Luck award. Heat race winners, Lucas Wolfe, Billy Dietrich, Cameron Smith and Anthony Macri also earned bonus money as part of the Weldon Sterner Memorial. Freddie Rahmer set quick time with a lap time of 13.768 seconds.

Rookie Ayden Hare Impresses in First 358 Victory

Rookie, Ayden Hare, scored his first 358 victory in only his fourth start in the division on Saturday night at the Weldon Sterner Memorial. Hare, who turned 16 earlier in the week, took home $1,669 for the win.

Pole-sitter, Scott Fisher led the field into turn 1 but Hare hare took the lead coming out of turn 2 and led lap 1. Frankie Herr was all over Fisher for second but could not find a way around him.

Lapped traffic did not slow Hare down as he continued to pull away from the field. Fisher eventually created some distance between him and Herr, leaving Frankie to fend off a challenge from Doug Hammaker.

Jayden Wolf ended up on his side in turns 3 and 4 on lap 11 bringing out the red. Wolf had been running eighth at the time of the incident.

Fisher tried the bottom through the turns on the restart but Hare blocked the line and got a great run coming off of turn 2.

Hare spent the remaining laps pulling away from the field and took his first checkered flag in a 358 sprint car nearly two seconds ahead of Fisher. Herr crossed the line third and Hammaker was fourth. Adam Carberry completed the top five.

The Hard Charger of the feature was Jude Siegel who raced from 22nd to 15th. The Hard Luck Bonus was awarded to Jayden Wolf. The 358 sprint car heat race winners, Doug Hammaker, Jayden Wolf, Frankie Herr and Tyler Ulrich each took home an extra $100 as part of the Weldon Sterner Memorial.

Next Saturday, April 27, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the 410 Sprints and 358 Sprints. Racing is scheduled for 6PM with pit gates opening at 3:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 4PM.

THUNDER ON THE HILL RACING SERIES

NAPA AUTO PARTS THUNDER ON THE HILL RACING SERIES TO KICKOFF TUESDAY, MAY 28

KUBOTA HIGH LIMIT 410 SPRINTS WILL CHASE $20,000 TO WIN ON THE HIGH BANKS OF GRANDVIEW

BECHTELSVILLE, PA APRIL 18, 2024 . . . . . . The Big Deal, the real deal is fast approaching and the one-third mile High Bank Grandview Speedway is ready. With two events already taking place at Grandview, excellent track conditions, great car counts and strong fan turnout has set the stage for Tuesday night, May 28.

The NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series opens when the Levan Machine & Truck Equipment present the Rich Mar Florist Kubota High Limit 410 Sprints as they invade the hill with this high profile event paying $20,000 to win the 35-lap sprint car feature. Also, on the program will be the Vintage Modifieds and Vintage Sportsman each competing in a 15-lap feature event. As part of this big event, Thunder on the Hill and Kubota High Limit Racing will honor the Keystone State Quarter Midget Racing Club that race in Schnecksville, PA.

This is a rare occasion and certainly a special treat for race fans of the Tri-State Area as the Kubota High Limit sprints have limited dates here in the northeast. In fact, Grandview is just one of two tracks in the area hosting the national 410 sprint touring division.

Tuesday, May 28 the top 410 sprint drivers will chase the $20,000 first prize to win the 35-lap Kubota High Limit 410 sprint feature. Rico Abreu won his last two starts at Grandview Speedway and will be in the hunt once again. Another driver to watch is Corey Day of Clovis, CA who is currently third in the Kubota High Limit point chase and most recently scored back-to-back Kubota High Limit feature wins.

Kubota High Limit Point leader Tyler Courtney is no stranger to the fastest “bull ring” in the East and he’ll be in the field along with multiple World of Outlaw Champion Brad Sweet. Brent Marks, Jacob Allen and Anthony Macri rank fourth to sixth in the point standings and all three drivers have strong roots here in Pennsylvania. Marks, Allen and Marci are also looking for their first Thunder on the Hill victory.

As an added incentive for the local drivers, Pioneer Pole Buildings posted a $2,000 bonus for any Pennsylvania sprint car driver that takes the win in the 35 lap Kubota High Limit 410 Sprint event.

The PPB $2,000 bonus is an added eye catcher to lure the best of Pennsylvania to the Hill. Just a few of the local drivers with their eye on the bonus include Danny Dietrich, Freddie Rahmer, TJ Stutts, Tim Buckwalter, Kyle Reinhardt, Lance Dewease, Tyler Ross, Kyle Moody, Ryan Taylor, Tyler Esh and Ryan Smith just to name a few.

The Thunder Series recently added the Vintage Cars to the Tuesday, May 28 Kubota High Limit 410 sprint show. We are inviting Vintage Modifieds and Vintage Sportsman to take part in this show. We ask the competitors of both the Vintage Modifieds and Sportsman to pre-enter by calling 443 513 4456. There is no entry free but pre-entering will help us in the planning of the show. Entries shall provide the drivers name, car number division (Modified or Sportsman) and phone number. Both the Vintage Modifieds and Sportsmen will each have a warm-up and a 15 lap feature.

We are adding the Vintage cars to compete during the show when the 410 sprints need some time between events. Our goal remains to have an efficiently run event that is completed by 10 PM.

The NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series is the long-time trend setter for presenting mid-week, high profile special events. The Thunder Series was the first to bring the Kubota High Limit sprints to the area and it was the Thunder on the Hill series that created the 17 year running of the USAC Eastern Storm.

The prominent Thunder Series will continue on Tuesday night, June 11 when the AMSOIL USAC Non-Wing Sprints and 358 Modifieds star in the Pioneer Pole Building sponsored event. Also on the roster, Tuesday night, July 2 is the HVAC Partners for Success Pennsylvania 410 Sprint Speed Week, the Hodnett Cup paying $10,000 to win and will be joined by the 358 Modifieds.

Be sure to say hello to Miss Thunder on the Hill Skylar Kuhl joined by Thunder Girls Kailyn Getz and Maddie Stephens.

Williams Grove Tommy Classic Pays Sprints $8,000 To Win Friday

Prestigious Spring race kicks off 2024 Diamond Series

4/14/24

Mechanicsburg – The Seifert Concrete Hoosier Diamond Series Tommy Hinnershitz Classic is this week at Williams Grove Speedway, slated for Friday night, April 19 at 7:30 pm.

The program for the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars will pay a fine $8,000 to one member of the Pennsylvania Posse for the 30-lap victory.

The Tommy Classic is the first race in the 2024 Hoosier Diamond Series of races at Williams Grove.

Time trials will set the heat starting lineups with $300 posted as the Fast Tees Fast Time Award in honor of late track champion Jimmy Nace.

A program of Street Stock racing is also on this week’s racing card.

The Spring classic event at the oval honors the late, great Tommy Hinnershitz, the famed racer from Oley that holds the distinction of winning the first ever race held at the brand new Williams Grove Speedway back on Sunday, May 21, 1939.

Last year in the Tommy Classic, Brent Marks scored his second win in a row in the prestigious race.

Marks took the lead from Anthony Macri on a restart with 10 laps go to after Justin Peck dominated the first half of the race only to come up with engine ills, sidelining him for the rest of the night.

The late Craig Keel won the first Tommy race in 2007.

No one has won more Tommy Classic races than Lance Dewease who is a three-time victor.

So far this season in 410 sprint car action at Williams Grove, Macri has scored twice and Freddie Rahmer has won once in the three races held to date.

For over 60 years, event sponsor Seifert Concrete of Dillsburg has been providing concrete construction services to general contractors and owners in South Central Pennsylvania.

Serving both the residential and commercial sector, learn more about Seifert Concrete at seifertconcrete.com and reach them at 717.432.5020.

Hinnershitz Legacy Honored Friday At Williams Grove

4/14/24

On tap at Williams Grove on Friday will be the annual Seifert Concrete Tommy Hinnershitz Memorial Spring Classic, honoring the late, great racer from Oley that holds the distinction of winning the first ever race held at the brand new Williams Grove Speedway back on Sunday, May 21, 1939.

Hinnershitz won the race in what was called a “hard and heady” event to best the famed Joie Chitwood.

Hinnershitz’s death in 1999 left behind an auto-racing legacy worthy of note by any standards.

He had garnered 103 total AAA/USAC feature wins with 19 taking place at Williams Grove. Hinnershitz set 43 AAA track records during his tenure and would compete in three Indianapolis 500s.

At the time of his death, the 87-year old was ranked second behind Steve Kinser on the National Sprint Car Hall of Fame’s Top Sprint Car Drivers of All Time list.

It was said that when Hinnershitz passed Chitwood, “the Big Chief was met with acclaim from the crowd.”

And Williams Grove will bestow even more worthy acclaim in the Big Chief’s honor this Friday night.

Adult general admission for the April 19 racing program is set at $25 with students ages 13-20 admitted for just $10.

Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for FREE at Williams Grove Speedway.

Port Royal Speedway

Article Credit: Brad Strawser

Port Royal, PA - April 6, 2024 - Danny Dietrich scored a $6,000 payday by winning the opening 410 race of the season at Port Royal Speedway and Ken Duke Jr took home $1,000 in the Keystone RaceSaver Challenge.

Dietrich started 11th in the Weikert Livestock 410 A-main on the initial green flag start before a multi-car accident brought out the red flag to start the event. Lynton Jeffrey, driver of the Trone Outdoor #39 who started 2nd, got turned sideways in front of the field and multiple cars got collected in the wreckage.

Once the field was reset, Dietrich lined up in the 10th starting spot and defending track champion Devon Borden lined up 3rd. Borden on the start quickly drove to the lead on the restart and Dietrich quickly moved up into the runner up spot.

Borden would lead the field through the opening 22 laps with Dietrich tight to his tail. With 3 laps to go, a late race restart following a caution for slowing TJ Stutts, allowed Dietrich to take advantage in the entrance of turn 1 to overtake Borden.

Another caution with 1 lap to go set up for a final chance for Borden to claim the top spot back, but Dietrich took the bottom side away in turns 1 and 2 and pulled away for the opening race payday.

"My thought process is a little different than most guys," said Dietrich in victory lane when talking about the restart that saw him take the lead, "but when we came out of 4, I got a good run on him coming down the front stretch and stuck my car in there."

in Penns Valley Meat Market RaceSaver 305 sprint car competition, Ken Duke Jr. was able to drive from the 9 starting spot to claim the 2023 makeup of the Keystone RaceSaver Challenge.

With single digit laps remaining, Ken Duke Jr. was able to take over the top spot following a caution that saw the leader drop out due to a flat tire. Duke Jr. took home $1,000 which is the top paying race for the RaceSaver series in PA, and he'll have the chance to repeat when the 2024 edition of the event is held on June 29th.

Port Royal Speedway to Race Top RaceSaver Event Alongside $6,000 to Win Weikert Livestock 410 Sprint Cars

Port Royal, Pennsylvania - April 2nd, 2024 - Port Royal Speedway is looking to resume the 2024 racing season on Saturday April 6th with the Penns Valley Meat Market PA Sprint Series and the 12th running of the Keystone RaceSaver Challenge sponsored by the Pennsylvania Game Commission as well as Weikert Livestock 410 sprint cars racing for $6,000 to win.

Both divisions boast impressive purses as the Keystone RaceSaver Challenge has a total purse of $19,000 to payout to the teams, and the Weikert Livestock 410 purse payout is $26,000 in total. The 410 purse is up $1,000 from it's normal $25,000 in thanks to Packer's Concessions for the additional support for the first 410 sprint car race of the season.

This is the rescheduled running of the Keystone RaceSaver Challenge from 2023 that was originally scheduled for October 2023 which was postponed due to weather conditions. The 13th annual (2024) edition of the race will then be run on Saturday, June 29. This is a departure from the traditional October date for the race in an attempt to get more favorable weather for the teams and the fans.

This will be only the second time a Keystone RaceSaver Challenge race has been postponed and rescheduled for the following spring. The 2016 edition actually was run in April 2017 after it was rained out.

"Fans can expect competitive racing from the RaceSaver division at Port Royal Speedway," said regional director Rod Ort. "our series is dedicated to the amateur racer. You’ll see the best RaceSaver racers in the country and we attract them to Port by registering teams focused on RaceSaver and our usual dedication to purse distribution. The main event pays $1000 to win and $500 to start giving more teams a good payday for their travels. For this reason, the event brings in a large car count with already 50 cars pre-registered. Registration is required so we can make sure teams are ready and know the procedures. We focus on being efficient and keeping the show moving while also having some of the most competitive racing of the night."

In the past 11 years, a total of 570 competitors have taken part in the race, an average of 52 cars per year. The top total was 68 in 2021.

A total of 10 different drivers have won the event since its inception, and 2 of them – defending race winner Logan Spahr and 2019 winner Nick Sweigart – will look to join Jeff Miller as the only two-time winners. Other past winners include Garrett Bard, Sean Campbell, Jeff Geiges, Kyle Smith, Darren Miller, Justin Clark, and Jake Waters.

Ken Duke Jr. of Selinsgrove has one of the strongest records of any competitor coming into this event. He didn’t begin his PASS career until 2013, so he missed the inaugural race, but in the ten years since then, his 3 top-five finishes (including a second in 2016) and 6 top-tens are the most of any racer. At one point the 2019 IMCA/RaceSaver National Champion had a string of 5 top-tens in a row.

Fans can arrive at The Speed Palace in the early afternoon Saturday April 6th for this event. Pit gates will open at 2PM, general admission gates open at 3PM, hot laps will begin at 4PM and racing starts at 5PM.

General admission tickets are $20, pit passes are $35, students (age 13-18) are $10, and kids under 12 are free.

The entire event will be livestreamed on FloRacing, the livestreaming partner for weekly racing at Port Royal Speedway.

Macri Drives From 17th To Williams Grove 410 Sprint Win

Norris goes from 14th to victory in 358 sprints

03/29/23

Mechanicsburg – Anthony Macri drove from 17th to the win in the 25-lap Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint car feature at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night.

The Dillsburg driver pocketed $6,000 for his second win of the year at the track including a $500 bonus from WC Eshenaur for making a last lap pass for the win.

In the 20-lap HJ Towing & Recovery 358 sprint main, Dylan Norris jetted from 14th to the victory to open the season for the division at Williams Grove.

Mike Walter II., started on the pole of the 410 sprint main and was leading over Ryan Wilson when Steve Buckwalter stopped on the third tour.

Fifth starter Kyle Moody motored into second on the restart but failed to produce any results over Walter on ensuing restarts of laps nine, 10 and 13.

The restart of lap 13 came after a red flag for the tangled cars of Danny Dietrich and Logan McCandless in the fourth turn.

Macri was up to third behind Walter and Moody for that restart and went to work on Moody when action resumed.

It took until lap 16 for him to net second and begin running down Walter.

Macri was turning laps some four-tenths of a second faster than the leader as he honed in for the lead.

And then on what would have been lap 22, Macri blasted underneath Walter for control in the first corner only to see the move negated seconds later when Jake Karklin spun his mount in the fourth corner, nearly collecting the front two cars.

With three laps to go, Macri settled in for his final runs at leader Walter and after nearly pulling off the pass in the second turn on the final lap only to see Walter regain control, Macri ran down the backchute in the leader’s shadow.

And when Walter entered the third corner in the middle trying to make his car as wide as possible, Macri decided at the last moment to make a bid on the ragged outside.

Side by side the pair ran into the fourth turn with Macri barely squeezing by for the victory as Walter bicycled on the cushion and nearly crashed while losing not one but two spots when Dylan Norris got by for second.

The checkers were the seventh of Macri’s career at Williams Grove, coming by 1.767 seconds over Norris.

Moody and Briggs Danner followed Walter across the line to complete the top five.

Sixth through 10th went to Cory Eliason, Ryan Taylor, Freddie Rahmer, Devon Borden and TJ Stutts.

Heats went to Walter, Ryan Wilson and Buckwalter while Danny Dietrich won the consolation race.

Macri was the PA Dyno Hard Charger.

Norris backed up his second in the 410 sprint main with a win in the 358 feature, taking the lead from Matt Findley with four laps to go.

Findley had led from the outset and withstood four restarts and challenges from Zach Newlin to maintain control until Norris struck late in the event.

Norris got around Newlin for second with six laps to go before gaining on the leader and making a lowside pass for the top spot in the first turn.

Norris’ second career win at the track came by 3.228 seconds over Newlin, Kyle Spence, Preston Lattomus and Doug Hammaker.

Sixth through 10th went to Findley, Nat Tuckey, Dwight Leppo, Chris Frank and Chase Gutshall.

Heats went to Derek Locke, Frankie Herr and Leppo.

Norris was the PA Dyno Hard Charger.

NAPA AUTO PARTS THUNDER ON THE HILL RACING SERIES……

VINTAGE CARS JOIN HIGH LIMIT SHOW, THUNDER GIRLS & NATIONAL ANTHEM PERFORMERS NAMED

BECHTELSVILLE, PA MARCH 27, 2024 . . . . . . . . For the thirty-fifth season, the NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series will open with the first of three big events in 2024 on Tuesday night, May 28 when Levan Machine & Truck Equipment present the Rich Mar Florist Kubota High Limit 410 Sprints at Grandview Speedway. The Series will continue on Tuesday night, June 11 when the AMSOIL USAC Non-Wing Sprints and 358 Modifieds star in the Pioneer Pole Building sponsored event. And also on the roster Tuesday night, July 2 is the HVAC Partners for Success Pennsylvania 410 Sprint Speed Week event joined by the 358 Modifieds.

The Thunder on the Hill Racing Series is the long- time trend setter for presenting mid-week, high profile special events and the coming season will be no different. The Thunder Series was first to bring the High Limit Sprints to the area and it was the Thunder Series that created the seventeen year running of the USAC Eastern Storm.

Some special announcements for the coming Thunder Series include adding the Vintage Cars to the Tuesday, May 28 High Limit 410 Sprint Show. We are inviting Vintage Modifieds and Vintage Sportsman to take part in this show. We ask the competitors of both the Vintage Modifieds and Sportsman to pre-enter by calling 443 513 4456. There is no entry free but pre-entering will help us in the planning of the show. Entries shall provide the drivers name, car number division (Modified or Sportsman) and phone number. Both the Vintage Modifieds and Sportsmen will each have a warm-up and a 15 lap feature.

We are adding the Vintage cars to compete during the show when the 410 sprints need some time between events. Our goal remains to have an efficiently run event that is completed by 10 PM.

For many years the NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series is proudly represented by a Miss Thunder on the Hill and the Thunder Girls. These ladies are great contributors to the event as they assist in key aspects of the show from greeting spectators, to handling the Inside/Out Promotion, the popular Pit Tours and victory lane celebrations.

Please welcome Miss Thunder on the Hill Skyler Kuhl to be joined by Thunder Girls Kailyn Getz and Maddie Stephens.

Rahmer Nabs First Grove Sprints Win In First Night Race Friday

Tyler Emory victorious in ULMS late models

03/22/23

Mechanicsburg – Freddie Rahmer muscled around Danny Dietrich to claim his first sprint car victory of the season at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday night, worth $5,500.

The victory was the 18th of his career at Williams Grove, tying him with Mark Kinser on the oval all-time win list.

Tyler Emory of Chaptico, Maryland, wired the field in the 20-lap ULMS Late Model Series main to claim $4,000.

The entire racing program was completed less than two hours.

Defending track champion Rahmer started on the pole of the 25-lap 410 sprint main but allowed Dietrich to snag control when action began.

Dietrich was holding sway on the seventh tour when the first caution flag of the race unfurled for a stopped Devon Borden on the backstretch.

Dietrich would then lead another lap before the red flag appeared for a hard hit of the inside wall by Lynton Jeffrey on the frontchute.

Rahmer stuck with Dietrich when action resumed and got a set of front wheels alongside of him in the second turn on the 10th tour only to see Dietrich maintain control.

Rahmer dogged the leader for the next six laps before blasting across the bottom groove in turns three and four to net the top spot with eight laps to go.

The leader was forced to contend with traffic during the late going, allowing Dietrich to narrow the gap however a last lap upset was not to be as the Salfordville speedster took the win by .429 seconds.

Cory Eliason of Visalia, California, rode home third followed by Kyle Moody and Justin Peck.

Sixth through 10th went to Anthony Macri, 19th starter Dylan Norris, Chase Dietz, Dylan Cisney and TJ Stutts.

Norris was the PA Dyno Hard Charger.

Heats went to Cisney, Dietrich and Brandon Spithaler.

After a rough start to the 20 lap ULMS late model feature that saw eventual winner Tyler Emory get crossed up in front of the field, Emory would lead from start to finish in the event.

Fourth starter Justin Weaver motored into second early but failed to challenge for the win, instead finishing 1.371 seconds behind at the finish.

Drake Troutman, Ryan Montgomery and Matt Sponaugle completed the top five finishers.

Heats went to Weaver and Sponaugle.

Bryan Bernheisel set fast time with a lap of 19.852 seconds.

Williams Grove returns to action on Friday night, March 29 at 7:30 pm with a program of Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprints and the season debut of the HJ Towing & Recovery 358 sprints.

Port Royal Speedway Cancels Racing for March 23rd Due to Impending Weather

Port Royal, PA – March 22nd, 2024 – The Port Royal Speedway team has made the decision to cancel racing activities for the upcoming March 23rd weekend.

The competition committee has kept a close eye on the weather report for the upcoming weekend over the past week in hopes for a better report, but expect a significant amount of rainfall at the track as well as cooler temperatures and high wind gusts that aren't fit for racing.

The committee also looked at the potential of running another date throughout the weekend, but with racing going on throughout the community in central Pennsylvania, wanted to allow their neighboring tracks to get their seasons started and celebrate the opening weekends of their seasons.

The team looks forward to seeing race fans on March 30th for Weikert Livestock 410 sprint cars, Selinsgrove Ford super late models, and Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models.

Stay tuned to our official channels and social media platforms for further updates and announcements regarding all future scheduled events.

HEFTY $17,000 410 SPRINT POINT FUND GUARANTEED FOR EIGHT RACE SERIES AT BAPS MOTORSPEEDWAY

YORK HAVEN, Pa.: A year ago, BAPS Motor Speedway had its best 410 Sprint Car season on record. The events were bigger, car counts were up, and the racing on the track didn’t disappoint. There was also a nice point fund in place to reward drivers who made the York Haven facility a regular stop on their schedule.

For the 2024 and 70th anniversary season, the 410-point fund at BAPS Motor Speedway makes a popular return. General Manager Kolten Gouse has announced that this year’s title chase winner will receive $5,000. The point fund will pay ten spots, with 5th receiving $1,350 and 10th taking home $750.
“Drivers and teams came out last year to support our 410 events,” Gouse said. “I believe the sponsors of the point fund was a big part of the 2023 season success, and we appreciate their continued support to bring it back again for 2024.
“It gives us a chance to reward drivers who support the speedway with a little more money than a simple purse. A big thank you goes out to the race teams and our point fund sponsors: RV 4-Wheel Drive and Performance Automotive, Denk Electric, Emory Transmission, and our Pay-Per-View provider- SprintCarUnlimited.tv for making this possible.”

This year’s schedule features nine 410 Sprint Car events, eight of which will be full point events. The July 24 World of Outlaws Bricker Bash will not be a point race for the 410 division.

This Sunday’s Pressurized H-2-O Night featuring the 410 and 358 Sprints kicks off the season. A pair of events highlight April, with a 410 Sprint Car, Late Model, and Wingless Super Sportsman taking the track on April 14, and the 358 Modifieds joining the 410s two weeks later.

The 410s and 305 Sprints are back for CH Recovery Night presented by UPMC on May 19. Engler Machine and Tool is on board for the June 30 Pennsylvania Speedweek spectacular, which is presented by Hoseheads.com.
Three events highlight the 2024 season close out events. The HVAC Distributors Inc. Kevin Gobrecht Classic takes place September 21, with the EK Services Britton Finkenbinder Memorial presented by Denk Electric on tap for October 26. The season concludes with the Heavy Equipment Loaders and Parts Sprint Showdown on November 16.

“We made a couple of changes to our schedule, and we are excited by the 410 Sprint Car events,” Gouse said. “Not only do we get to showcase the area’s top teams, but we also have a variety of support divisions on the card with the Sprints that will get exposure in front of bigger crowds.

“Things really came together with the schedule and the point fund. We are looking forward to exciting racing for the drivers and teams, as well as the fans in attendance.”

Total Point Fund for 2024 $17,000 Breakdown:

$5,000
$2,500

Anthony Macri Finally Snags Williams Grove Sprint Opener

Wilbur takes wingless sportsman

03/17/23

Mechanicsburg – Anthony Macri of Dillsburg scored his first ever Williams Grove Speedway opening day sprint car event on Sunday afternoon, worth $5,500.

After nearly winning the event last season only to lose control on the final circuit, Macri took the lead from Ryan Taylor on lap three to get the 2024 checkered flag which was the seventh of his career at the oval and his first since July, 2022.

In the 20-lap wingless super sportsman main, Steve Wilbur of Mechanicsburg took the win.

After a failed initial start by front row drivers Cameron Smith and Danny Dietrich in the 410 sprint car main, the first and second rows swapped to put Macri and Taylor up front for the second attempt.

The ensuing try saw Billy Dietrich and Lucas Wolfe stop after a spin by Freddie Rahmer in the third turn before Steve Buckwalter slowed on the third attempt to again slow the pace.

Eventually, Taylor would lead the first circuit of the 25-lap feature with Macri first trying to muscle into the lead on the second tour.

Macri was able to make the move stick on the backstretch the next time around.

The leader entered the rear of the field with 10 laps recorded before a yellow flag regrouped the field with 10 laps to go for a stopped Taylor, who was holding down third.

After racing into second on the fourth lap, Danny Dietrich restarted second but failed to challenge for the lead and despite another restart with just two laps to go, Macri cruised to the victory on the hard daytime surface.

Dietrich finished .788 seconds behind at the finish followed by Freddie Rahmer, Lance Dewease and Chris Frank.

DANNY DIETRICH WIRES FIELD FOR FIRST WIN OF THE SEASON; Dylan Norris Starts off 358 Season with a Victory

Abbottstown, PA (March 16, 2024) – After starting off the Lincoln Speedway season with second and third place finishes, Danny Dietrich scored the win on Saturday night in the pigeon hills, “Just had a really good car all night long and a good pill draw all night long.” With only a handful of laps left in the 30-lap feature, Danny was working around the lapped car of Rick Lafferty and Lafferty spun in turns 1 and 2, bringing out a caution with three laps to go. That set up Dietrich to have to hold off invader, Paul Colagiovanni, on the restart, “He’s really good on these diverse racetracks and is a heck of a driver. It’s just a matter of time until he gets a win down here in Central PA.” Despite a solid effort, Dietrich held off Colagiovanni on the restart and went on to score the win.

Saturday’s race was the first to implement a 1-inch wicker bill at Central PA race tracks. Danny, who has expressed support for the rule change prior to Saturday shared, “We were looking forward to the 1-inch wicker bill and ran used tires tonight because we know it isn’t going to be as hard and it worked out pretty good.”

Kyle Moody shared the front row with Dietrich to start the feature and the two raced side by side into turn 1 and down the back shoot with Dietrich claiming the lead at the line.

The yellow came out on lap one for Chad Trout who was off the pace and came to a stop in turn 1.

Dietrich led Moody, Aaron Bollinger, Dylan Norris and Paul Colagiovanni for the restart. Norris looked under Bollinger to take third and got by Moody for second at the line.

Tony Jackson brought out the yellow on lap 2 when he stopped on the front stretch.

This time the top five for the restart were Dietrich, Norris, Moody, Colagiovanni and Bollinger. Colagiovanni got by Moody for third and Matt Campbell and Anthony Macri drove by Bollinger to move into fifth and sixth.

Moody was working on getting third back from Colagiovanni as Macri worked on Campbell for a spot in the top five.

Tyler Ross slowed on the track with a flat tire on lap 6 bringing out another caution.

Dietrich, Norris, Colagiovanni, Moody and Campbell lined up to pace the field for the restart. Norris looked to the bottom of turn 1 leaving the top open for Colagiovanni. Norris held off Colagiovanni’s attempt at taking second. Macri got under Campbell and Moody in one move to drive from sixth to fourth in turn 2.

Lap 9 saw yet another caution when Cameron Smith stopped on the front stretch.

Dietrich, Norris, Colagiovanni, Macri and Campbell made up the top five for the restart. Colagiovanni tried the high side again and once again Norris held the spot. Norris started closing in on Dietrich at the half-way mark as lapped traffic loomed ahead.

Campbell took fourth back from Macri on the back stretch and Devon Borden followed, sending Macri back to sixth.

Freddie Rahmer was running eighth when he flipped hard in turn 4 on lap 13 after contact with Justin Peck, bringing out the red.

Dietrich led Norris, Colagiovanni, Campbell and Borden to the cone for the single file restart. Colagiovanni went high with his best move yet and took second from Norris on the restart. Campbell followed suit and moved into third.

Troy Wagaman was challenging Borden for fifth and Peck joined making it a three-way battle for the spot. Borden held the position for the moment but Peck would take it on lap 24.

Lapped traffic loomed ahead of Dietrich with 5 laps to go. As Danny was putting Rick Lafferty a lap down, Lafferty spun in turns 1 and 2 bringing out the caution on lap 27.

Dietrich paced the field ahead of Colagiovanni, Campbell, Norris and Peck for a three lap shoot out to complete the feature. Colagiovanni looked to the top in turns 1 and 2 but could not get past Dietrich for the lead.

Dietrich crossed the line .985 seconds ahead of Colagiovanni. Campbell finished third and Norris was fourth. Peck completed the top five.

Dylan Norris Starts off 358 Season with a Victory

After finishing fourth in the 410 feature earlier in the night, Dylan Norris lined up sixth for the start of the first 358 sprint car feature of the season. Norris was up to fourth for a lap 3 restart and continued to make his way to the front of the field. Norris made the winning pass on the white flag lap, scoring his second 358 division win at Lincoln.

Joe Timmins and Tyler Ulrich made up the front row for the start of the 20-lap feature and led the field side-by-side coming out of turn 2. Jayden Wolf got by Timmins for second and Cody Fletcher followed, moving into third.

Ayden Hare and Justin Foster got together in turn 4 bringing out the yellow on lap 2. Doug Hammaker was also involved and suffered front wing damage. Hammaker made a trip to the pits ending his night. Hare and Foster rejoined the field.

Fletcher went to work on Wolf for second and took it coming out of turn 2. Wolf spun out while running third on lap 3 in turns 3 and 4 bringing out the caution.

Ulrich led Fletcher, Wyatt Hinkle, Norris and Steve Owings to the cone for the restart.

Owings got his nose under Norris to try and take fourth but Norris had his eyes set on taking third from Hinkle. Fletcher was all over Ulrich for the lead when the yellow came out for Josh Harner who had spun in turns 1 and 2.

Hinkle got under Fletcher for second on the restart and Norris was right there to challenge Fletcher for third and took the spot, sending Fletcher back to fourth.

Hinkle was searching for a way around Ulrich for the lead as Norris closed in. Ulrich was pulling away from the field as he closed in on lapped traffic.

Preston Lattomus and Andy Best got together in turns 1 and 2 bringing out the red on lap 14.

Ulrich, Hinkle, Norris, Owings and Fletcher made up the top five for the restart. Norris got by Hinkle for second leaving Hinkle to fend off Fletcher’s challenge for third.

Justin Foster and Jude Siegel got spun around in turn 3 bringing out the yellow on lap 16.

The top five for the final restart of the feature were Ulrich, Norris, Hinkle, Fletcher and Owings. Fletcher got by Hinkle to move up to third. Owings entered the battle and took fourth from Hinkle.

Norris was all over Ulrich for the lead with two to go. Norris took the top spot as the white flag waved.

Norris took the win by 1.124 seconds over Ulrich. Fletcher crossed the line third and Owings was fourth. Kyle Spence made a late race pass to finish fifth.

Next Saturday, March 23, Lincoln Speedway is back in action with the 410 Sprints and Legends. Racing is scheduled for 6PM with pit gates opening at 3:30PM and grandstand gates opening at 4PM.
