August 23rd, 2020

HERE COMES THUNDER ON THE HILL. . . . 410 STARS DIETRICH, WOLFE & MACRI TO TAKE ON THE ALL STAR’S IN CHASE OF THE THUNDER CUP ON THURSDAY NIGHT AT GRANDVIEW SPEEDWAY

BECHTELSVILLE, PA AUGUST 23, 2020 . . . . . . . Local 410 Sprint Car favorites Danny Dietrich, Lucas Wolfe and Anthony Macri have their eye firmly planted on the prize, a $5,000 check and the prestigious Thunder Cup up for grabs this Thursday night, August 27 when Tony Stewart’s Ollie’s Bargain Outlet All Star Circuit of Champions storm Grandview Speedway. This always exciting Thunder on the Hill Racing Series event is presented by Levan Machine & Truck Equipment of Fleetwood, PA and will also include the popular 358 Modifieds chasing a $3,000 first place prize. Gates open at 5 PM with race time set for 7:30 PM.

Danny Dietrich certainly knows his way around the always tricky Grandview Speedway one-third mile oval. In fact, Dietrich owns one Thunder on the Hill victory. Lucas Wolfe has been a long time contender on the hill but luck has never played to the advantage of Wolfe. There is no doubt, if Lucas Wolfe is in the line-up, he’s a contender for the win. Also looking for his first Thunder win is Anthony Macri. A rising star in the 410 sprint ranks and did set fast time in a previous Thunder on the Hill event.

Aaron Reutzel has won the last two All Star events at Grandview and leads the All Star points over Cory Eliason of Valisia, CA, Paul McMahan of Nashville, TN, Zeb Wise of Angola, IN, and Josh Baughman, Odessa, TX. Some well-known home town favorites looking to chase the $5,000 first prize include Freddie Rahmer, Ryan Taylor, Alan Krimes, Brandon Rahmer, Brock Zearfoss, JJ Grasso and Kyle Reinhardt to name a few.

The thrilling 358 NASCAR Modifieds are the charm of Grandview Speedway every Saturday night. They never disappoint the fans when they are on a Thunder on the Hill Racing Series event. Very few tracks present shows with two star-studded divisions. After a series of qualifying events, the Modifieds will battle in a 30 lap feature paying $3,000 to win. The talent-filled field is expected to include Craig VonDohren, Duane Howard, Jeff Strunk, Brett Kressley, Rick Laubach, Doug Manmiller, Jared Umbenhauer, Mike Gular, Colt Harris, Kevin Hirthler and Mike Lisowski.
