Grandview Speedway in Pennsylvania is set to kick off a high‑octane August, headlined by a NASCAR Modified and Sportsman racing program that blends qualifying sessions, feature events and a series of one‑on‑one match races.
Low‑Down Throw Down: A $500 Showdown
The centerpiece of the weekend is the Low‑Down Throw Down, a match‑race format that pits the division’s top seven point‑standing drivers against the three fastest qualifiers from the hot‑lap session, creating a unique showdown for fans.
The overall victor of the Low‑Down Throw Down will walk away with a $500 cash prize, an American Racer tire certificate and a bottle of Bear’s Inferno Armor, while Jimbo’s Exteriors adds a $200 bonus for any driver who remains undefeated throughout the match.
Sponsors such as MB Roofing, Baer Den Farms, Stringers Collision Center, Hoffman Speed Supplies and others have come together to back the event, underscoring the community’s deep involvement in the sport.
Grandstand tickets are priced at $20 for adults, $10 for students aged 10 to 15 with identification, and free for children nine and younger, while pit access costs $35 for NASCAR members and $45 for non‑members, with gates opening at 4 p.m. and grandstand gates at 5:30 p.m.
Adding to the month’s excitement, the Forrest Rogers Memorial 50‑lap championship for the T.P. Trailers & Truck Equipment Modifieds is scheduled for August 8 at 7:30 p.m., offering a $10,000 top prize.
The T.P. Trailers & Truck Equipment Sportsman division has already seen ten different winners this season, with Brad Brightbill leading the charge after two victories, while point leaders in the Modified division include Eddie Strada, Logan Watt, Rick Laubach, Mike Gular, Brett Kressley and Jax Yohn.
In the Sportsman ranks, top point contenders such as Colin Cox, Joe Toth, Teague Miller, Jimmy Leiby, Adrianna Delliponti, Decker Swinehart, Chase Gular and Jordan Henn are all poised to contend.
Grandview Speedway has been a staple of weekly NASCAR stock‑car competition since the 1960s, running from April through October on its half‑mile oval located at 43 Passmore Road, Bechtelsville, Pennsylvania, just off Route 100 ten miles north of Pottstown.
