VINTAGE CARS JOIN HIGH LIMIT SHOW, THUNDER GIRLS & NATIONAL ANTHEM PERFORMERS NAMED
NAPA AUTO PARTS THUNDER ON THE HILL RACING SERIES…… VINTAGE CARS JOIN HIGH LIMIT SHOW, THUNDER GIRLS & NATIONAL ANTHEM PERFORMERS NAMED
BECHTELSVILLE, PA MARCH 27, 2024 . . . . . . . . For the thirty-fifth season, the NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series will open with the first of three big events in 2024 on Tuesday night, May 28 when Levan Machine & Truck Equipment present the Rich Mar Florist Kubota High Limit 410 Sprints at Grandview Speedway. The Series will continue on Tuesday night, June 11 when the AMSOIL USAC Non-Wing Sprints and 358 Modifieds star in the Pioneer Pole Building sponsored event. And also on the roster Tuesday night, July 2 is the HVAC Partners for Success Pennsylvania 410 Sprint Speed Week event joined by the 358 Modifieds.
The Thunder on the Hill Racing Series is the long- time trend setter for presenting mid-week, high profile special events and the coming season will be no different. The Thunder Series was first to bring the High Limit Sprints to the area and it was the Thunder Series that created the seventeen year running of the USAC Eastern Storm.
Some special announcements for the coming Thunder Series include adding the Vintage Cars to the Tuesday, May 28 High Limit 410 Sprint Show. We are inviting Vintage Modifieds and Vintage Sportsman to take part in this show. We ask the competitors of both the Vintage Modifieds and Sportsman to pre-enter by calling 443 513 4456. There is no entry free but pre-entering will help us in the planning of the show. Entries shall provide the drivers name, car number division (Modified or Sportsman) and phone number. Both the Vintage Modifieds and Sportsmen will each have a warm-up and a 15 lap feature.
We are adding the Vintage cars to compete during the show when the 410 sprints need some time between events. Our goal remains to have an efficiently run event that is completed by 10 PM.
For many years the NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series is proudly represented by a Miss Thunder on the Hill and the Thunder Girls. These ladies are great contributors to the event as they assist in key aspects of the show from greeting spectators, to handling the Inside/Out Promotion, the popular Pit Tours and victory lane celebrations.
Please welcome Miss Thunder on the Hill Skyler Kuhl to be joined by Thunder Girls Kailyn Getz and Maddie Stephens.
Skyler Kuhl/Miss Thunder on the Hill. . .Grew up racing quarter midgets and attending dirt track races. As Miss Thunder on the Hill I’m excited to meet and interact with all the fans and drivers and will work to be a role model for kids who attend the races. I respect the women who have so well represented our sport and I’m so excited for this season. See you all at Grandview Speedway May 28, June 11 and July 2.
Kailyn Getz/Thunder Girl 2024. . . . I’ve been involved in racing my entire life with both my father and grandfather racing dirt modifieds. My father turned to the role of car owner and in 2021, Duane Howard would wheel the Butch Getz Motorsports Modified. I want to encourage more females to get involve in this great sport. I am really looking to enjoy some hardcore racing at Grandview Speedway this year.
Maddie Stephens/Thunder Girl 2024 . . . I started drag racing when I was eight years old but always had a desire for dirt tracks. I remember always looking up to the girls who were active in the sport. I am extremely excited and grateful to be part of the Grandview Speedway Thunder Girls for 2024. Looking forward to meeting all the amazing fans and interact with the drivers. Here’s to having an amazing season!
