BECHTELSVILLE, PA. – Off to a great start!
Grandview Speedway hosted an open test and tune practice session on Saturday afternoon, setting the stage for Opening Night next Saturday, April 5.
An outstanding turnout of race teams jammed the Grandview Speedway pit area on Saturday, with a grand total of 96 race cars taking part in the traditional free-to-the-public open practice session, which allowed drivers to test their cars for the upcoming racing campaign.
Drivers from various divisions were represented and leading the way were the two weekly divisions, as 37 - T.P. Trailer NASCAR Modifieds, and 40 - T.P. Truck Equipment NASCAR Sportsman jammed the pit area, along with Outlaw Racing Series Enduro cars, Pro 4 Racing Series Four Cylinders, Vintage cars, winged and non-wing Sprint cars, Late Models, and a Slingshot, which all took practice laps in the 4-hour test session.
Six-time T.P. Trailer Modified track champion Duane Howard was the quickest of all 37 Modified teams in attendance, turning quick time in two different sessions at 14.335 and 14.866 seconds respectively. Other T.P. Trailer Modified drivers who were quick during practice included 2024 Champion Jeff Strunk at 15.800 and 2023 Champion Brett Kressley at 15.810 during one of the later practice runs.
In the T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman division, the fastest lap of the afternoon was turned in by one of the top ten points drivers from last year Adrianna Delliponti who turned a lap of 15.395 seconds, followed by Mike Schneck Jr. at 16.675, and Addison Meitzler who turned a lap of 16.725 seconds.
Several Sprint teams were on hand with Chase Moran of Fultonville, N.Y. in a winged 360 Sprint turning a quick lap of 15.243 seconds, while Patrick Chilmonik in a wingless Sprint turning a quick lap of 17.236.
A very robust grandstand crowd was on hand, taking advantage of the free grandstand admission to check out the new cars and drivers for the upcoming season on a partly sunny and rare 80 degree March day.
With practice in the record books, attention now turns to the 2025 season opening VP Racing Fuels Bruce Rogers Memorial Money Maker, which is open to both Big and Small Block Modified competitors and is run in honor of long-time track owner and promoter Bruce Rogers. The feature race will be 50-laps, paying a cool $7500 to win as well as a remarkable $1000 to take the green flag in the main event. The feature race winner will also receive a guaranteed starting spot in the September 20 Freedom 76!
Grandview Speedway management is reminding all competitors that the Opening Night program will be sanctioned by NASCAR and will be the first point race of the new campaign for both the T.P. Trailer Modified and T.P. Truck Equipment Sportsman divisions toward both the track and NASCAR Advance Auto Parts Weekly Series Championships.
