Coventry Mall Race Car Show returns in 2014

Coventry Mall Race Car Show returns in 2014

 

After a one year hiatus, a race car show will return to the Coventry Mall. The Coventry Mall Race Car Show will run from Friday, March 7th through Sunday, March 9th. The Coventry Mall is located in Pottstown, PA and is just 11 miles south of Grandview Speedway. 

 

Garage Talk Live will be the 2014 sponsor of the Coventry Mall Race Car Show. Garage Talk Live is a Motorsports radio show that is broadcasted every Monday on Blog Talk Radio.   The show is hosted Vince Bonfigli and promoted and run by Tammy Auman. Tammy also handles the Meet and Greets at Grandview Speedway and runs the tracks Fan Page.   

 

Event Organizer Scott Hoffmaster is excited about bringing the mall show back this year.  “I started a new position at my job last year that was very time consuming and did not have the time that was needed to put together a great show,” said Hoffmaster. “My goals of hosting this event is to promote local dirt track racing and to give drivers another opportunity to promote their sponsors.”   

 

There are some new things in the works as well for the 2014 show.  A local RC Club has been asked to join the show and provide live racing.  As plans are finalized and times are scheduled, this information will be released.  The club features several classes of cars that run on a weekly basis and there is hopes that a Celebrity event can also be set up to have a few of the local racers try their luck at racing some RC Cars.  

 

Hoffmaster is now accepting entries for the 2014 Coventry Mall Race Car Show. Previous years entries range from Late Models to Modifieds, Sprint Cars, Micro Sprints, 600 Modifieds, ARDC midgets, Enduro and Vintage cars. Plans include having a Grandview Speedway display in center court. The display will include featured cars from the track, Grandview Speedway 2014 schedules and NASCAR license applications. 

 

The Montgomery County Quarter Midget Racing Club (www.mcqmrc.com) will also be participating in the show yet again this year.  Their display will include several cars as well as information about the club.  They host a variety of events each year, including a driver’s experience, where families looking to see if their child would have any interest in racing, can borrow a car and the child is mentored and has the chance to run some laps.  

 

Entries are still be accepted for the show, and there is no fee to display your racecar.   Please e-mail Scott at coventrymallrcs@yahoo.com with your name, phone number, type of car and car number. Cars will be staged and allowed to enter the mall Thursday night, March 6th when the mall closes at 9 pm and the cars will exit the mall at 6 pm Sunday night.
