SPEEDWEEK PRESS RELEASE
Attention racers, its that time of year again! PA 600 Speedweek is happy to announce that this year’s edition is ready to go and the racing end of things will remain the same for this year. The number of races, the locations, the rules, and the same trail will be followed this year. Many of our sponsors remain the same as well as new ones being added. Hoosier Tire and American Racer, The Dry Dock Pub, and Hinchman Racing Uniforms have generously agreed to return as some of our main sponsors. Its still not too late to get in on any sponsorship deals for the week so we may keep this thing going. ALL sponsorship monies go back to the racer. Keep that in mind when you consider sponsoring with us! This year has been especially hard to secure the sponsorship needed to provide the 600cc racing fraternity with it’s most fun, most competitive week of the year. Wayne Lesher’s wildly popular 600 Pro Series has given everyone a great opportunity to race against the best at different tracks over the course of the year, now you can get a taste of the same thing jam packed into one week of racing and traveling with your fellow competitors. If you talk to anyone who has followed the entire week in previous years, they will tell you it is something you don’t want to miss out on after you get to do it once. In addition to “B” main sponsors Senter Farms of Oceola Arkansas, Guhl Motors, Spar Racing Engines, NPS Racing, Liberator Performance of Carlisle and Hyper Racing, Valken Wheels will be adding a new twist this year on two different platforms. First, The Valken Wheel Hard Charger Award for each race will offer 100.00 for the racer who improves the most positions in the race. The money will be split among any racers that pass the same number of cars in that Race. Also, The Valken Wheel Challenge will be a huge boost to the already popular week’s events. We will be announcing the parameters of this great opportunity in an announcement soon! After stops at Trail-Way Speedway in Hanover, Lincoln Speedway in Hanover, Path Valley Raceway Park in Spring Run, Susquehanna Speedway in Lewisberry, and Linda’ Speedway in Jonestown, The series will culminate at the famed “Clyde Martin Memorial Speedway” Lanco for the big Micro-Mania show. Once again a double heat race passing point format will highlight the racing this year, giving everyone a fair shot at making each “A” main event during the week. Only one race will require a pre entry fee to race, and that will be the Micro Mania show at Lanco. A pre entry form will be available soon on both the Lanco website and the PA 600 Speedweek website. Pre entry is 100.00 per car and will run through June 26th. All entries after June 26th will be a required 200.00 entry fee. Once again we look forward to a great week of racing here in PA and hope that all of you can join us and Mother Nature will again shine down upon us. Again, thank you to all the competitors, owners, fans, race tracks and sponsors and volunteers that make this week as big as it is and as fun as racing gets! One additional note......Dave Bodine has been gracious enough to actively peruse a manufactures challenge race this year. Details of this new and exciting event will be coming soon!

SPEEDWEEK 2010 IS ALL SET
The 2010 addition of PA 600 Speedweek is finally ready to go! With all the planning and preparation of this coming years event, not alot will change. Adhering to the old adage, if it aint' broke, dont fix it, we have made little changes to this years events. The tracks remain the same, the rules remain the same, only the dates have changed! Opening on the 26th of June at Trailway Speedway and Ending on the 3rd of July at Lanco Speedway for the second edition of Micro-Mania. Tuesday and Wednesday remain open for "Rayne" days. Some new sponsors will come on board, and some old ones have gone by the wayside. Passing points will again be used in double heat races to set the 26 car feature field. Open motor rules again will be used. Alot of discussion was used again on this sensitive issue. We felt that there is absolutely no possible way to tech the cars the proper way for current rules and still remain on a sensible timetable after each race and moving on to the next night. In short, it would be a nightmare! Anyone wishing to discuss this may do so by contacting Dan or Trip directly. Parts will be available at the track from the Speedweek sponsors who participate this years program as an "A" main or "B" sponsor as exclusive parts dealers. A mandatory right rear compound will remain in effect also. Stay tuned to this wesite for further news and developments as time goes on. Good Luck to everyone leading up to this years events.
