GRANDVIEW THRILLER: Schuchart Wins PA Speedweek Feature at Grandview Speedway
BECHTELSVILLE, PA (July 2, 2024): A pair of traveling men found their ways to Grandview Speedway for Tuesday night’s Thunder on the Hill event that was part of the Pennsylvania Speedweek 2024 edition. Logan Schuchart, who was given a reprieve by the World of Outlaws, made the relatively short trip from his Hanover home to place his name on the Hodnett Cup winning Tuesday’s Thunder on the Hill event at Grandview Speedway that was part of the 2024 Pennsylvania Speedweek 2024.
“Greg Hodnett was awesome to me and winning a race in his honor is really cool,” Schuchart said in Victory Lane. “It means a lot to me to get this win.”
Schuchart did not race at Grandview Speedway for more than a decade, but he quickly remembered the fastest way to get around the track. After setting the evening’s best time in qualifications (12.073 seconds), he battled with Anthony Macri throughout the thirty-five lap affair. The two young lions swapped the lead a couple of times, with Schuchart leading the final seven laps to claim the $10,000 victory.
“I haven’t been here since 2010, but I’ve watched a lot of videos.” Schuchart explained, “the videos showed the top is better until the rubber comes in on the bottom.” He admitted to having some difficulty deciding when to move down. He said that he took his cue from the cars that he was trying to put a lap down.
“When I had some problems with lapped cars, I knew that it was time to move down.”
