BECHTELSVILLE, PA (July 25, 2016) — A jam-packed night of racing action is on tap for this Tuesday, July 26 as the mighty roar of 410 Sprints and 358 Modifieds overtakes the Grandview Speedway for the second running of the NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series THUNDER CUP.

Fans will be treated to double A-Main events for the both the 410 Sprint Cars and the 358 Modifieds. Along with the regularly scheduled show, make-up features from the Speedweek show will also be completed.

The make-up feature event will kick-off where it left off on lap 15. Greg Hodnett of Thomasville, PA will restart the race in the top spot chasing the $5,000 top-prize money, with the rest of the field taking the positions they held at the caution flag.
