Hamlin, PA- Racing Returns To The Hamlin Speedway This Saturday Evening, June 30th

Hamlin Speedway, the premier racing facility in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania, will spring back into action this coming Saturday night, June 30th with a seven division race card. The event will act as a prelude to the Annual VETSTOCK “Firecracker 100” that will take place on the following weekend July 7th. The speedway took a weekend off last week to allow families an opportunity to enjoy some quality vacation time together away from the rigors of racing and to re-charge their batteries for the start of the second half of the racing season at Hamlin. The Hamlin Speedway continues to enjoy great racing action in 2018 and the loyal band of racing heroes have created a star base of a driving roster that has just been over the top with new drivers emerging each week to take on the regulars on the newly clayed, multi-grooved raceway. The racing action on Saturday night will allow the drivers the opportunity to get back to their “A-Game” as the speedway heads into the second half of the racing season.

For the Slingshot driving stars at the speedway, this will give them a chance to make sure their equipment is ship-shape and top notch as they prepare for the century grind that will await on July 7th. A big win or solid finish on Saturday will propel the drivers into the big dollar event. Through six events in 2018, the All Star Slingshot features have produced six different winners. From the solid core of driving talent at the speedway, the drivers are very much of the talent that surrounds them so the next couple of shows at the speedway may find the shining star breaking free from his rivals. Brett Bieber, Troy Langendoerfer, Austin Silfee, Scott Neary, Tyler Banks and Mike Fogler have claimed wins thus far in Slingshot action.

The remaining six divisions have battles of their own going on and all will be seeking their own breakout event to place them at the top of the heap in their division. The racing at Hamlin in 2018 has been spectacular with a quality weekly roster that has produced a star studded field of racing heroes, creating the excitement and the buzz of what small car division racing is all about. Hamlin Speedway is a transitioning track with drivers transitioning in and out as they make their way into other divisions of the sport that will take them away from where they have made their initial mark in racing. To replace them, new stars have emerged each year at Hamlin from the quarter midget and go kart ranks to take on the speedway regulars on the multi-grooved and highly competitive raceway.
