Mechanicsburg – Williams Grove Speedway will host VP Racing Fuels Night on May 6, featuring the Lawrence Chevrolet 410 sprint cars and the HJ Towing & Recovery 358 sprints.
The event will be a Hoosier Diamond Series race for the 410 sprints, paying $6,000 to win as a World of Outlaws tune up.
The race will be the last chance for the Williams Grove sprint car drivers and teams to prepare themselves for the May 13 and 14 invasion by the World of Outlaws Sprint Cars series.
Time trials will set the heat lineups with the fast timer earning the $300 Fast Tees Fast Time Award.
For the 358 sprint cars the race will be their season opener of sorts after their first slated race was lost to weather in April.
Derek Locke will be in the spotlight as the division hits the track as fans and teams wait to see if he can run his string of wins up to 10 in a row.
The Carlisle driver has won every 358 sprint event contested at the track since September 25, 2020.
Each 358 sprint heat on the night and all through the season will pay $50 to win thanks to High Side Apparel.
Race sponsor and official fuel supplier of Williams Grove Speedway, VP Racing Fuels will have fan giveaways for the night and the VP Mad Scientist will be on hand to greet those in attendance.
