This past Saturday was the second consecutive and seventh Saturday night rain/weather cancellation to start a season, becoming the most ever in Grandview Speedway’s 63 year history. Previously the most events lost to the elements to begin a season were five, which occurred in the 1972, 1982, 2003, and 2018 racing seasons.
With the very slow start to the 2025 race season, there have only been four T.P. Trailer Modified features run so far this season, and all at different distances. The Bruce Rogers Memorial 50-lap main event started the season, followed by a Twin 25-lap feature program, and one 30-lap feature run.
The T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman have completed just three features this year, all at the 25-lap distance, however two of the three feature winners captured their first ever Grandview Speedway victory.
Brian Hirthler, Brett Kressley, Chris Esposito, and Jeff Strunk have been winners so far this year in the T.P. Trailer Modifieds, while Colin Cox, Lawson Szerencits, and Jesse Landis have been T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman feature winners.
With no racing completed last Saturday, the chase for the championship will see the point standings remain the same heading into this week’s racing action, with Brett Kressley leading the T.P. Trailer Modified standings and Colin Cox sitting on top of the T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman standings.
The following are the current top ten drivers in the T.P. Trailer Modified point standings – 1. Brett Kressley – 1094, 2. Mike Gular – 1074, 3. Craig Von Dohren – 965, 4. Logan Watt – 917, 5. Jared Umbenhauer – 915, 6. Louden Reimert – 890, 7. Duane Howard – 830, 8. Tim Buckwalter – 625, 9. Kyle Smith – 619, 10. Matt Stangle – 602.
The following are the current top ten drivers in the T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman point standings – 1. Colin Cox – 789, 2. Adrianna Delliponti – 668, 3. Mike Schneck Jr. – 636, 4.
