Pittsburgh, PA (September 29th, 2014) – The 52nd Annual ‘National Open’ featuring the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series will hit the center stage this Friday and Saturday, October 3rd & 4th at the Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania. The greatest sprint car drivers in the world will make their way back to the world-famous Williams Grove Speedway half-mile on Friday and Saturday, ready to do battle for the $50,000 top prize being awarded on Saturday night. Danny Holtgraver, an occasional visitor to Williams Grove Speedway during his yearly campaign, will make his return to ‘The Grove’ this weekend to compete with ‘The Greatest Show on Dirt.’ Holtgraver, who finished 15th during last year’s ‘National Open’ main event, hopes to make a lasting impression during his upcoming visit to central Pennsylvania, and challenge the ‘Outlaws’ and ‘Pennsylvania Posse’ for the 50G’s.

“This is the big one…the one we wait all season for” explained Danny Holtgraver, “I think the Knoxville Nationals and National Open are the two events that I look forward to the most each and every year…the best sprint car drivers in the country will be at Williams Grove Speedway this weekend…being a part of something like that is special…we had a pretty good run last year; coming through the ‘B’ and finishing 15th in the ‘A’…I think we are capable of bettering that this year…I just want to thank my entire crew; my Dad, Pup, Earl, Josh, Sandy…and I especially want to thank my car owner, Rob Hunter…he gives me the opportunity to do this each and every weekend…we’ll see what we can do!”

The 2014 edition of the Williams Grove Speedway ‘National Open’ will feature two complete programs for the World of Outlaws STP Sprint Car Series; kicking-off with preliminary action on Friday evening, October 3rd. Friday night’s preliminary main event will be 25 laps in distance, awarding $8,000 to the main event winner. The weekend will be headlined with the 40-lap finale on Saturday evening, October 4th; awarding $50,000 to the champion. Fred Rahmer is the defending race winner; Danny Holtgraver finished 15th.

“There is a lot of money on the line this weekend…getting into the big show on Saturday is really important” said Holtgraver, “We’ve been doing really well lately…qualifying well and finishing up front…momentum is very important in this sport, so being able to go to ‘The Grove’ with that kind of momentum behind us helps set the tone…we will go there with the same mental attitude that we always have and work towards getting to the front…we are all really excited…should be a great weekend, regardless!”
