Bechtelsville, PA June 16, 2014 . . . Open wheel racing fans will be in their glory this weekend at Grandview Speedway with two big nights of racing that will include URC winged sprint cars and NASCAR 358 Modifieds on Saturday (June 21) and the first Open Wheel Spectacular of the season featuring the TSRS winged sprints and ARDC wingless midgets which is set for Sunday (June 22nd).

Jeff Strunk, a nine time track champion, will head up the NASCAR 358 Modifieds in the Saturday night doubleheader as he and Duane Howard continue their close battle for the NASCAR Whelen All American 358 Modified championship. More than 30 outstanding modified talents will be seen in action as part of a doubleheader show that also features the Rislone United Racing Company winged sprint cars.
Brian Carber of Pipersville, PA currently leads the Rislone URC Sprint Series point chase heading to the Grandview Speedway.
Carber, a feature winner earlier this year at the Delaware International Speedway would like nothing more then to pull off a win at Grandview. Kevin Darling of Wyoming, DE is hot off a URC win Saturday night at the Winchester Speedway, where he led wire-to-wire to score his first win of the season. Grandview is considered by many to be one of the most challenging tracks on the URC circuit.
Saturday night action will get the green flag at 7:30 p.m. with spectator gates open at 5:30 p.m. for the RCN-TV sponsored night.

Then on Sunday Hillborn Tri-State Race Saver wingless sprint cars will have defending champion Mike Haggenbottom leading the list of talent that will be seen in action. And it will be Trevor Kobylarz looking to add another ARDC midget win to his Grandview efforts. He won a midget feature last season at the Bechtelsville clay oval. Current ARDC point leader Steve Drevicki, who has two feature wins this season, will be looking to add to his win list.
More than 50 sprints and midgets are expected to see action in a full series of qualifying events that get the green flag at 7:30 p.m. and lead up to 25-lap features in each division.
