Prepare for the 18th Annual Eastern Storm

Mark your calendars for the annual National Touring Series of the Amsoil USAC Non-Wing Sprints as they make their way to the East for the exciting 18th edition of the Eastern Storm, presented by Levan Machine and Truck Equipment.

Thrilling Racing Experience

The atmosphere is always charged with excitement as the promising young stars of the USAC National Non-Wing Sprint Tour travel across states. In the East, this surge of energy is amplified by the variety of six distinct tracks that will host the Eastern Storm, ensuring plenty of nail-biting moments.

A Diverse Racing Schedule

This six-night racing event not only showcases USAC Non-Wing Sprints but also features other exciting categories like 358 Modifieds, URC 360 Winged Sprints, 410 Sprints, 600 Non-Wing Sprints, and USAC Champ Cars. It’s a consecutive lineup of thrilling races that you won’t want to miss.

Historic Background

The legacy of USAC Non-Wing Sprints in the region dates back to 1956 when Oley, PA driver Tommy Hinnershitz claimed the first three USAC Sprint victories at the Berks County Reading Fairgrounds. Many legends such as Johnny Thomson, A.J. Foyt, and Bobby Unser have also triumphed at this historic location. However, the last USAC race at the Reading Fairgrounds took place on April 14, 1979, marking the end of an era.

The Return of the Eastern Storm

The USAC Non-Wing Sprints made a comeback in 2007, spearheaded by Grandview Speedway’s Bruce Rogers and Event Promoter Bob Miller. A packed crowd witnessed Levi Jones clinch the first event under the Eastern Storm banner that kicked off the 2007 Thunder on the Hill Racing Series. Since then, Grandview has hosted the Eastern Storm’s opening event.

Current Champions and Incentives

Notable drivers like Brady Bacon, Bryan Clauson, and Chris Windom have joined Levi Jones as winners of the Eastern Storm. This year’s Eastern Storm will feature a total point fund of $10,000 sponsored by Levan Machine and Truck Equipment, aiming to attract attention and excitement to the series.
