MIKE KELLNER!


Here is a good picture of one of the winners in the late model division saturday night Mike Kellner! Mike can sure get around Grandview's high banks in a hurry! Mike is one to watch when he is on the track. "FULL THROTTLE" should be Mike's nickname! I would love to see twisting the wheel of a modified. Congrats! Kyle Merkel was the winner of the regularly scheduled late model feature. (Bob Yurko photo)(click to enlarge)

BILLY PAUCH JR!


Billy Pauch Jr wins his 1st modified feature last night at Grandview Speedway! Congrats to Billy! Billy has reeled off some fine runs over the last few weeks and you knew the win was coming soon! Billy has been very smooth, and the car has a ton of smoke aboard! When Billy finally worked his way past Mike Gular for the lead, you knew it was over. Billy is one of the friendliest and good spirited drivers at Grandview week in and week out! Nice job Billy!

DON MARKS MEMORIAL NIGHT!




Tomorrow night is Don Marks Memorial night at Grandview Speedway! The night is being run in memory of Don Marks who was the long time track photographer who passed away in March, 2008. His contributions to Grandview Speedway, to the sport and to the racers were numerous. He was considered one of the very best photographers in the motorsports business.





There is a full night of racing on tap with an additional 20 lap make up late model feature as a result of the May 16th rainout. Adding a lot of interest to the racers on this night will be cash awards for the winners of each qualifying event plus lap money for the lap leaders in the modified feature and one 20-lap late model feature. In addition there are a couple of special cash awards plus beautiful statues for the feature winners courtesy of the Cheers Tavern. More than $2,000 in extra cash awards has been posted by a variety of different sponsors. (Bob Yurko photo)
