–
Williams Grove Speedway will kickoff the first ever Mid Atlantic Crown for URC
and ESS 360 c.i. powered sprint cars this Friday night, July 29 at 8 pm when it
stages its annual 360 Sprint Nationals.
Joining the exciting 360 sprints on the Williams Grove
Friday card will be the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars for a 25-lap, $3,800
to win main event.
The Mid Atlantic Crown for 360 sprints is a series of three races spun off in
Pennsylvania and New York that is co-sanctioned by both the URC and ESS circuits
at not only Williams Grove but also at Selinsrove and Utica-Rome Speedways.
Williams Grove will kickoff the
three-race, three-day series for URC/ESS on Friday night with a $4,000 to win,
25-lap main event.
There will be no time trials
for the 360 sprint cars.
The appearance by the Empire Super Sprints at Williams Grove on Friday will be
the first time in history that ESS has competed at the speedplant.
Adult general admission is
just $16 for the big sprint car show with youth ages 13 – 20 priced at $10.
Kids ages 12 and under are always admitted for free at Williams Grove Speedway!
A display of restored racecars
from the Eastern Museum of Motor Racing will be held in the infield during the
night with the EMMR taking home the Williams Grove portion of the 50/50 on the
night.
It is expected that a number of area 410
sprint pilots will compete in at least some if not all of the Mid Atlantic Crown
series events.
At Williams Grove of course, this means that fans will get the
chance to see those pilots in action twice on the same night as they also
compete in Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint car action as well.
More than $80,000 in prize money has been posted for three
consecutive nights of 360 sprint car racing at all the tracks in this Mid
Atlantic Crown series.
Lelands.com,
one of the most respected sports memorabilia auction houses in the world,
recently upped the stakes by announcing a $10,000 bonus will be paid to any one
driver who is victorious in all three of the series main events spanning the
trio of ovals.
The Einstein Construction Group,
headquartered in Denton, Texas, and largely based out of Central New York, is
sponsoring the Mid Atlantic Crown points series with a $2,000 point fund being
posted.
In addition, a $2,000 participation program, which
will be split among the drivers who compete in all three events, is being
sponsored by Fox Shocks, ASI Racewear, Dave Franek Auto Sales, and Don Ott
Racing Engines.
