JENNERSTOWN SPEEDWAY HOSTS TRUCKIN’ THUNDER NIGHT

JENNERSTOWN, PA (July 11) … Jennerstown Speedway will honor the men and women who keep America rolling this Saturday evening (June 15) when Fox & James Freightliner, Hunter’s Truck Sales and Service and D.M. Bowman, Inc. join forces to salute area truck drivers by presenting Truckin’ Thunder Night.

Headlining the evening’s activities will be Indiana-based stuntman Paul Stender, who is bringing an arsenal of three jet powered vehicles to the Somerset County speed emporium.

Stender will light up the Jennerstown sky with his famed jet delivery truck, and street legal ‘Crunch Time’ jet-powered wrecker. Also during the course of the evening, Stender will attempt to set a new closed-course speed record for outhouses, when he cranks up his jet-propelled ‘one holer’ on the front straightaway.

Also on the agenda for area eighteen wheel jockeys is a Big Rig Show ‘n Shine contest, with awards going to the best looking semi-trucks in attendance. In addition there will also be an on-track ‘Big Rig’ cruise during intermission. Any driver with a CDL license will be admitted free to the night’s activities.

A complete racing program for the NASCAR Dodge Weekly Series will also be in the spotlight, featuring action for the Courtesy Suzuki super late models, WJAC-TV late models, Advance Auto Parts street stocks and the hobby stocks.

Lebanon teenage Kyle Martel will be looking for his third victory of the season, following a dominating triumph last Sat. in the 40-lap super late model main event.

Andrew Kostelnik will be gunning for his sixth consecutive victoy in street stock action, while Dusty Rhoads will attempt to continue his domination in the late model class.

Admission is $8.00 for adults, while kids age 12 and under will be admitted free.

Spectator gates open at 5:00 pm, with the first race set begin at 6:00 pm.
