HIGH LIMIT 410 SPRINTS JUST AROUND THE CORNER ON TUESDAY MAY 19 – ADVANCE TICKETS ARE AVAILABLE
EDDIE STRADA AND COLIN COX CONTINUE TO LEAD CHAMPIONSHIP POINTS RACE
BECHTELSVILLE, PA. – Competition has been keen so far this season, and Grandview Speedway returns to action with a NASCAR Local Racing Series Powered by O’Reilly Auto Parts double-header program this Saturday night.
The program on Saturday, May 16 will feature the T.P. Trailers & Truck Equipment Modifieds along with the T.P. Trailers & Truck Equipment Sportsman, with both divisions participating in qualifying races leading up to the 30-lap Modified and 25-lap Sportsman feature events.
Start time on Saturday will move to 6:30 pm, with pit gates opening at 3:30 pm, grandstand gates opening at 4:30 pm, and warm-ups starting at 5:30 pm.
Adult grandstand admission is $20, students 10-15 with ID are $10, while children ages 9 and under are admitted free of charge. Pit admission is $35 for NASCAR members and $45 for non-members.
This past Saturday’s race program was to include TWIN 25-LAP FEATURES for the T.P. Trailers & Truck Equipment Modifieds, but due to the rain out, track management has rescheduled the TWIN 25’s for the T.P. Trailers & Truck Equipment Modifieds for Saturday, May 30.
The first Thunder on the Hill Racing Series event is set to take place next Tuesday, May 19 (rain date May 20), featuring the Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing Roto-Rooter Midweek 410 Sprint Series at Grandview Speedway, presented by Levan Machine & Truck Equipment and RICH MAR Florist.
The list of talented drivers is impressive with expected entries to include Ryan Timms, Tyler Courtney, Kyle Larson, Tanner Thorson, Aaron Reutzel, Brent Marks, Kasey Kahne and defending High Limit Champion Rico Abreu, along with local PA Posse talent on hand in chase of the $20,000 first place prize. In addition, Alpine Building Supply has added a $2,000 bonus if a PA driver tops the High Limit stars to win the 35-lap Hodnett Cup.
The Hodnett Cup is dedicated to Greg Hodnett, a feature winner, multiple time champion and star of the PA Posse, who lost his life in a racing accident in 2018. The Hodnett Cup is an actual trophy that belonged to Greg, and each year, the event winners’ name is added to the cup. Previous winners of the Hodnett Cup at Grandview include Danny Dietrich (2019), Aaron Reutzel (2020), Kyle Larson (2021), Rico Aberu (2022 & 2023), and Logan Schuchart (2024), while the 2025 event was lost to rain.
Advanced tickets for the Interstate Batteries High Limit Racing Roto-Rooter Midweek 410 Sprint Series race event on May 19 can be ordered now at HIGHLIMITRACING.COM.
On Tuesday, May 19, advance ticket holders will enter the grandstand area in turn one at 4:30 pm, with general admission tickets going on sale at 5 pm at the main entrance. Following opening ceremonies, heat race qualifying will take the green flag at 7:35 pm.
