No Racing This Week at PPMS, Racing Returns July 1
Imperial, PA (June 21) Pittsburgh’s Pennsylvania Motor Speedway will not be in action this weekend, but racing will return to the speedway on Saturday, July 1. Berks/Nickles will present Dollar Dog Night, highlighting Diehl Automotive Driver Autograph Night, a favorite of the race teams and fans alike. During intermission, the race teams will bring their cars on the track, and the fans will get a chance to go on the track and visit with their favorite drivers. On the track, making their annual visit will be the exciting Rick’s Trucks and Equipment BOSS Sprint Series for traditional non-winged sprints. Unlike the pure speed of the winged sprints, the nonwinged variety places a premium on driving ability, and they put on an incredible show on the ultra wide PPMS track. Also in competition will be weekly point racing for the Precise Racing Products RUSH Late Models, Sunoco Sportsman, Super6 Late Models, Miley Truck Rental Hobby Stocks, Imperial Heights Garage Young Guns, and CruiseAmerica Open Fours. The Twin State Auto Racing Club will be guests of the speedway.
