COUNTDOWN TO 100. . . . . . .410 SPRINTS & 358 MODIFIEDS ON TAP TUESDAY, JUNE 28 AT GRANDVIEW SPEEDWAY FOR HISTORIC 100TH THUNDER ON THE HILL RACING SERIES CELEBRATION
Two premier divisions of dirt track racing will share the spotlight at the Grandview Speedway on Tuesday night, when NAPA Auto Parts present the 100th Thunder on the Hill event. It's only fitting that the 410 sprints and 358 modifieds come together for this spectacular double-header celebrating the long and successful history of Thunder on the Hill at the Grandview Speedway. Adult general admission for this event is just $20, children 6-11 $5 and children under the age of six will be admitted free. The pit fee is $25 and a license is not required.
Many give aways are planned including Thunder on the Hill water bottles along with several surprises including t-shirts from Vertical Telephone Systems and Lee Myles Transmissions. Of course, Joe the Pizza Dude will greet fans in his usual run through the grandstands.
The 410 sprints will compete in time trials, heat race qualifying and a 35 lap feature event as the 358 modifieds battle in a series of heat races, a consolation and a 25 lap feature.
Brian Leppo won the May Keystone Cup 410 sprint series event on the hill, holding off a determined Fast Freddie Rahmer. Lance Dewease, Greg Hodnett, Stevie Smith, Daryn Pittman and Mark Smith are some of the heavy hitters expected in the sprint car roster. In the modified field, expect May Thunder winner Jeff Strunk, Duane Howard, Mike Gular, Craig VonDohren, Kevin Hirthler, Rick Laubach and Doug Manmiller.
Gates will open at 5 PM with race time set for 7:30 PM.
