STP World Of Outlaws To Take On Williams Grove PA Posse This Week, May 16 & 17
5/11/14
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mechanicsburg –
Williams Grove
Speedway will present the STP World of Outlaws Sprint Cars this Friday and
Saturday night, May 16 and 17, at 7:30 pm.
The invasion by the traveling band will be the first of three
slated match ups between the outlaws and the Pennsylvania Posse this season.
On Friday night, the 25-lap sprint car winner will receive
$8,000 while Saturday’s champion of a 30-lap feature will walk away with $12,000
plus another $5,000 for being crowned the 2014 Morgan Cup victor.
The Morgan Cup title is bestowed in honor of late speedway
owner Morgan Hughes and the winner’s side of the title will take ownership of
the sterling Morgan Cup for another season.
The trophy will be kept at either World of Outlaws
headquarters in Concord, NC., or at the offices of Williams Grove Speedway in
Mechanicsburg.
The May 2014 outlaws vs. posse clash will find the Williams
Grove posse trying to keep its head up high after a sweep of the most recent
challenges by the outlaws in last October’s National Open races when Don Kreitz
Jr. and Fred Rahmer swept the two-day stand.
Prior to the National Open events, the STP World of Outlaws
had swept the posse at Williams Grove during the circuit’s previous six
appearances dating back to May of 2012.
Winners during that time included Donny Schatz, 3; Paul
McMahan, Cody Darrah and Steve Kinser.
The outlaws invasion will also mark the return to Williams
Grove of posse turned outlaws in 2014, Logan Schuchart and Jacob Allen, both of
Hanover.
The circuit will hit town with Joey Saldana leading tour
points along with other up front drivers Paul McMahan, defending champion Daryn
Pittman and Donny Schatz.
Williams Grove returns to action on May 23 with a Diamond
Series event for the 410 sprints along with action including the PASS 305
sprints and fireworks.
Aside from the Friday
programs at the oval, the Williams Grove Speedway Saturday Series, offering
racing action with the Super Sportsman, 358 late models and street stocks at
6:30 pm is currently underway, resuming May 24.
Saturday Series adult admission is JUST $5.
