Bechtelsville Pa.- May 1 , 2016-Mark these dates. The popular return of the USAC Non-Wing Sprints will head East, June 7 through June 12 with the 10th Annual AMSOIL Eastern Storm.
The Eastern Storm opens at the one-third mile Grandview Speedway in Bechtelsville, PA as part of the NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series. The USAC non-wing sprints always put on a show, but at Grandview, it’s even better.

Wednesday night, June 8 it’s off to the Lincoln Speedway in Abbottstown, PA as USAC and the 358 Sprints team-up for big double header.
