You can’t count out 410 favorites like Ryan Smith and Danny Dietrich, who are heading to Berks County in full force searching for a NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series checkered flag.
The Sprint Cars will compete in a 35-lap event with $7,000 winner’s share and will be joined by the NASCAR 358 Modifieds – Grandview’s mainstay weekly division for a 30-lap, $3,000-to-win double main event. Modified drivers Craig VonDohren, Jeff Strunk, Brett Kressley, Ryan Watt and Billy Pauch Jr., have indicated their intentions to compete on Tuesday evening.
