Regular Event Admission Prices Remain the Same, Grandview Remains a Part of the Rich American Racer Cup Championship and All Racers Need to Use G’view Stamped American Racer Tires
BECHTELSVILLE, PA (February 12, 2015) — There will be no increase in admission prices for the regular Saturday night NASCAR sanctioned stock car racing events at Grandview Speedway this season. Good news for the many fans that support auto racing at the popular racing facility now headed into its 53rd season of racing.
Adult admission for regular shows, featuring the 358 Modifieds, BRC Late Models and Sportsman stock cars, will remain at $15 for adults. Youngsters 11 and under will be admitted free for the regular shows. Pit passes, for those with a NASCAR license, will be available for $30.
A free-to-the-public practice session is scheduled for noon on Saturday, March 28th and will be open to all divisions of competition. There will be no NASCAR license required for the practice.
During the point season, Grandview offers two separate point funds; all racers will be required to use American Racer tires that carry the G-view stamp.
“We had announced this change early last season and gave the racers ample time to use up their supply of BPG stamped tires,” said track owner Bruce Rogers. “We even extended the grace period to encompass the entire 2014 season. Now we will require that all racers use the G-view stamped tire.”
Again in 2015 Grandview Speedway will be part of the American Racer Cup championship that includes many of the most popular area short track racing facilities. In 2014 Duane Howard won the American Racer Cup Modified title while three time Grandview Sportsman champion Jared Umbenhauer walked off with the Cup Sportsman title. Race teams are required to purchase a one-time membership to participate in the American Racer Cup and have the opportunity to share in the $150,000 in cash and awards that are available.
The membership also makes the racer eligible to win tires and certificate drawings at the participating tracks.
Membership details and membership forms are available at www.dirtmodcup.com.
Grandview racers are reminded that a NASCAR license is required for everyone entering the pit area starting with the season opener on Saturday, April 4th at 7 p.m. Applications for NASCAR licenses are available at www.grandviewspeedway.com.
