This coming Saturday evening, June 22 starting at 6:00 pm Mahoning Valley Speedway presents a six division program of asphalt stock car racing which will include the headline Modified class along with Late Models, Street Stocks, Dirt Mods, Pro 4s and Hobby Stocks.

Also added to the night’s card will be the touring American Three Quarter Midget Racing Association (ATQMRA) TQ Midgets.

All classes are scheduled to run a complete program of heats and features.

Heading into this weekend’s action Bobby Jones holds the lead in the Modified points over Kyle Strohl and last week’s winner Josh Scherer with Earl Paules and defending champ Brian DeFebo lucking intently behind.

With his second win in a row and third on the season Mike Sweeney has narrowed the gap on Frankie Althouse by 13 points while Jeremy Miller, Matt Wentz and Samantha Osborn are keeping close pace.

The Street Stock standing s are showing Jon Moser by a slim margin over Randy Schlenker while Todd Ahner and Mark Martini are within striking distance to move to the top of the rankings.

The Dirt Mod points reveal Cory Edelman the leader by a mere three markers over Ricky Yetter.

Bobby Kibler Sr., has been holding steady as the front-runner of the Pro 4s but keeping in step is Jake Kibler. Both drivers are credited with a combined seven wins in nine races thus far.

When Devin Schmidt added win number two this past Saturday it padded his point lead ever so slightly over Shawn Kistler. Al Arthofer, Peyton Arthofer and Cody Boehm round out the top five and are close enough to unseat Schmidt at any time.

If watching stock cars soar around the tight confines of Mahoning Valley Speedway aren’t thrilling enough, having the TQ Midgets on hand bring the speed level to all new heights. Zipping in and out of traffic and making laps at nearly 100 mph on the ¼-mile is spine-tingling.

The combination of stock cars and TQ’s adds up to a great night of racing. Front gates open at 4:00 pm. Adult grandstand admission is $14, $2 off for students, seniors 65+ and active military. Children under 10 are free. Pits will open at 11:30 am. Early paid practice ($25 per car) will be from 12:30 to 3:30. Regular warm-ups begin at 4:15. Pit admission $25 members, $35 non-members. Driver sign-ins will be from 3:00 to 4:15.

Coming up on June 29 is a special 75-lap/$2500-to-win Modified cone race feature.
