Award Winning GT Radiators To Sponsor Balls To The Wall Segment Leaders At Grandview Speedway

BECHTELSVILLE, PA    MAY 16, 2023    .   .   .   .   .  The  NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series of 2023 will open on  Sunday night, May 28 with the return of the Pioneer Pole Buildings  2nd Annual Balls to the Wall 50 Invert Race for 358 Modifieds, joined by a complete program of 602 Sportsman at the Grandview Speedway.   Race time is set for 7:30 PM

The PPB Balls to the Wall 50 is very different from your traditional fifty lap feature, with two inverts taking place, one on lap 20 and again on lap 35 when the top four in running order will invert.  The leaders on lap 20 and 35 will pocket the GT Radiators Bonus of $1,500 with $400 going to second, $200 for third, $100 for fourth and $50 going to fifth through tenth at each invert.

In 2023, GT Radiators will again be an active sponsor with Thunder on the Hill and they’ll play a big part in the Sunday, May 28 Balls to the Wall Modified 50 lap Invert Race.    GT Radiators are sponsoring the Bonus money paid to the leaders on lap 20 and lap 35 of the Balls to the Wall 50.
