Nationals Hit Williams Grove This Week

7/13/14
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Mechanicsburg –
Williams Grove Speedway will present the two-day World of Outlaws Summer
Nationals for sprint cars this Friday and Saturday, July 18 and 19.
Racing on both nights will begin at 7:30 pm.
Lineups both nights will be set using time trials with
Friday’s feature going 25-laps in distance while paying $8,000 to win.
Saturday’s 30-lap finale will pay a hefty $20,000 to the
victor.
If one driver can sweep the weekend he will pocket nearly
$30,000.
The mid-summer outlaws invasion will continue the rivalry
between the locals known as the Pennsylvania Posse and the World of Outlaws
travelers.
Back in May when the outlaws made their first stop of the
season at Williams Grove, traveler Daryn Pittman swept both days of action
aboard a mount owned by Kasey Kahne.
Donny Schatz is the defending Williams Grove Summer
Nationals champion.
Pittman won the Summer Nationals finale back in 2006 and
again took a win in 2008.
The annual July Summer Nationals began at Williams Grove in
2002 as a three-day event before becoming a two-day affair in 2008.
Over the years, Posse stars Greg
Hodnett, Lance Dewease, Donnie Kreitz, Fred Rahmer, Brian Leppo, Jason Johnson
and Cody Darrah while still running locally have taken victories in Summer
Nationals action.
Likewise, outlaws pilots Danny
Lasoski, Joey Saldana, Paul McMahan, Craig Dollansky, Terry McCarl and Jason
Meyers have also taken event wins along with Schatz and Darrah as a card
carrier.
Schatz, Pittman, McMahan and Saldana all currently rank
within the top five in the World of Outlaws point standings.
Aside from 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 in
full swing.
Saturday Series adult admission is JUST $5.
And please remember,
kids ages 12 and under are always admitted free at Williams Grove Speedway!
