Stop At PPMS
PITTSBURGH, PA — Join us this Saturday, June 15th, as Pittsburgh’s Pennsylvania Motor Speedway hosts the third stop on the ‘Icon Memorial Tour’ Speedweek sponsored by the Renegades of Dirt. The Herb Scott Memorial, presented by K&N Performance, will showcase the Diehl of Robinson Super Late Models in a 40-lap main event with the winner earning a cool $4,000 paycheck for his or her efforts. The Edge E-Mods will also compete this Saturday in their first of four events in 2013 with the winner of their 20-lap feature event scoring $1,200. The Precise Racing Products RUSH Pro-Lates, Sunoco Race Fuels Late Model Sportsman, Miley BP Carwash Hobby Stocks and the Imperial Heights Garage Young Guns will round out the evening’s racing action.
“We are extremely excited to host the third leg of the ‘Icon Memorial Tour’, stated Speedway Owner Matt Miley. “This event provides our Super Late Model teams with the opportunity to compete with some of our region’s top Super Late Model drivers without driving several hours to do so. In addition, we are also recognizing Herb Scott, who is a legend in Late Model racing and who’s accomplishments are recognized throughout the nation.”
The Super Late Model portion of Saturday’s racing action will get underway with group time trials, followed by a six lap Dash that will invert the top six qualifiers. The finish of the dash will determine positions one through six in the A-Main. Heat race action and a B-Main will determine the remainder of the field for the 40-lap feature event.
Mike Benedum, George Lee and Rick Aukland are just a few of the competitors expected to invade the Imperial, PA oval to battle weekly hotshoes such as Michael Norris, Jared Miley, Lynn Geisler, Keith Barbara and Brandon Burgoon.
