Sprint Car Double Header Highlites Holiday Weekend
Selinsgrove Hosts 410 Speedweek Finale' On Sunday Night
SELINSGROVE, Pa. – Selinsgrove Speedway will showcase two sprint car specials over the Fourth of July weekend. The 358 sprint cars will be featured in the Firecracker 30 this Saturday, July 4, with the 410 sprint cars taking the spotlight in the PA Speedweek finale this Sunday, July 5. Track gates will open at 5 p.m. and qualifying will begin at 7:30 p.m. both nights. 

Saturday’s Eighth Annual Salem RV Center Firecracker 30 for 358 sprint cars will pay $2,000 to win and $225 to start. The payoff for all 24 starting positions has been increased for the race.  Time trials, heats, and a B-Main will be the format for qualifying for the 30-lap A-Main.  Also on this Saturday's racing card will be late models, pro stocks, and roadrunners. 

Past winners of the Firecracker race as a 40-lap contest include Jim Nace of Thompsontown (2002), Bob Beidleman of Walnutport (2003), Dave Calaman of Carlisle (2004), Nate Snyder of Halifax (2005), and Blane Heimbach of Selinsgrove (2006). In 2007, the race was abbreviated to 30 laps and was won by Calaman. Scott Flammer of West Milford, N.J., is the defending winner of the race.

Race sponsor Salem RV Center, located on Route 522 and Clifford Road in Selinsgrove, specializes in the sales and service of new and used recreational vehicles.
