BECHTELSVILLE, PA. –Following an action-packed June schedule, the month of July will be just as exciting at Grandview Speedway.
Several added attractions will join the weekly NASCAR Advance Auto Parts stock car program, plus the first time visit of the High Limit 410 Sprint series highlight the July schedule.
This Saturday night will be a NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series double-header featuring the T.P. Trailer Modifieds and T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman. The race program will consist of qualifying races for both divisions leading into the 30-lap T.P. Trailer Modified feature and 25-lap T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman main event.
Saturday’s program will also be a special night for the younger fans, as there will be a kid’s money scramble. The kids will be divided into three age groups and sent scrambling to pick up as many scattered coins as they can in a certain amount of time! Kids are reminded to arrive early on Saturday as the first 100 youngsters through the gates will receive a gift bag!
On Saturday, July 1 pit gates will open at 4 pm. with grandstand gates opening at 5:30 pm. warm-ups starting at 6:15 pm. and racing starting at 7:30 pm.

There will be a pre-race Meet and Greet with the guys from Low Down and Dirty on Saturday. The featured drivers will be Modified driver Eric Kormann and Sportsman driver Mike Schneck Jr. They will be on hand with their cars in the main gate area starting at 5 pm. This is a great time for fans to meet the drivers up close, collect some autographs, take photos, and talk racing with their favorite drivers.
This past Saturday, June 24 the race program was lost to the weather. With the postponement, the 90’s night promotion has been rescheduled to Saturday, July 22. Speedway management is inviting any 1990’s era drivers to attend on July 22 and participate in an autograph session. If interested, please contact Tina Rogers at Grandviewspeedway1963@gmail.com.
The T.P. Trailer Modifieds will look to continue the close competition that has been happening so far this season, with eight different drivers reaching victory lane, including six different drivers in eight Saturday night programs, and two different Thunder on the Hill winners to date.
Brett Kressley and Doug Manmiller have won two features each, as the only repeat winners, with Mike Gular, Eric Biehn, Nate Brinker, and Ryan Watt capturing one win each.
