THE TRIPLE “ROARING 20’S” FOR MODIFIEDS, PIONEER POLE BUILDINGS SWEETENS THE POT,  $8,500 POSSIBLE TO SWEEP ALL THREE SUNDAY, MAY 30 AT GRANDVIEW

 

MAY 2, 2021  Bechtelsville, PA     . . . . . . . . . . The Roaring 20’s  refers to the decade of the 1920’s when the United States enjoyed great economic prosperity,  sometimes called the crazy years.   Emphasizing the era, Jazz blossomed, the flapper redefined the modern look and there was a large scale growth of high speed cars, films, radio and aviation.  This economic growth brought about new trends in lifestyle and culture.    The Roaring 20’s also introduced some of the most notorious gangsters such as Al Capone (Scarface), John Dillinger, “Baby Face” Nelson,  “Pretty Boy” Floyd, “Machine Gun” Kelly and of course, Bonnie and Clyde.  For whatever reason, these names became household names and in many ways, the public saw these famous figures as heroes, that were often celebrated and admired, not scorned.

Well, it is now 2021, the Roaring 20’s are making their return, this time to the Grandview Speedway as part of the NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series event on Sunday night, May 30.  It will all go down like this.  For the Modifieds, it’s a big payoff, short distance, three times to get it done, take the loot and get out of town.    Sounds easy…….but as we know, it never comes easy on,  “the Hill”.   It will take a plan and usually, in the dark of night,  it’s the most famous figures who take the cash.   The victors are usually celebrated, admired and sometimes scorned.

Likely entries who can close the deal and get it done include Craig VonDohren, Jeff Strunk, Duane Howard, Doug ManMiller, Billy Pauch Jr,  Kevin and Brian Hirthler and Brett Kressley just to name a few.

So here’s the scoop, the Triple Roaring 20’s for modifieds will be joined by the sportsman stock cars and the Vintage Outlaw Racing Series on Sunday night, May 30 at the Grandview Speedway.  Gates open at 5 PM and show time is set for 7:30 PM.

After modified qualifying heat race action, the first of three Roaring 20 lap modified features will take to the Grandview Speedway.  Each 20 lap Modified feature will pay $2,000 greenbacks to the winner.  If any driver can make it a three win heist, Pioneer Pole Buildings has a $2,500 bonus on the line, making the triple sweep worth $8,500 big ones.  If one driver wins two features, PPB will add an additional $500 bucks in bonus money.  All cash and no wooden nickels.   Each feature offers an attractive payoff with $200 being paid just to start each feature.

Also on the program will be the sportsman, competing in a series of qualifying events leading up to a $1,300 to win 20 lap feature plus the first time showing of the Vintage Outlaw Racing Series.
