Invaders and Posse Regulars Headline Port Royal Speedway Regular Season Championship Opener
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Port Royal, PA, March 21st, 2024 – As the weekend approaches, anticipation builds for the action set to unfold at Port Royal Speedway this Saturday, March 23rd. Race fans have been eagerly awaiting the Weikert Livestock 410 sprint cars, Selinsgrove Ford super late models and Zimmerman Truck Repair limited late models to return to The Speed Palace.
With the strong lineup of drivers from the “PA Posse” that call Port Royal Speedway home, fans can also look forward to invaders like High Limit Racing’s Cory Eliason to headline the field. This Saturday can give fans a taste of what to expect with competition from the touring season coming in later months.
Devon Borden will be one for the headlines from the “PA Posse” team of drivers, coming off a spectacular 2023 season that saw him take home track championship at The Speed Palace, and the first driver not named Logan Wagner to hold the title since Brock Zearfoss in 2017.
Super late model competition over the past 4 years has proven to be a gauntlet for who can come away with the track championship. Last season Rick Eckert from York was able to take home the crown, but will be challenged by top drivers like Colton Flinner, 2022 track champion, and Dylan Yoder who won championships in 2019 and 2021.
Limit Late Model fans can expect the same high level of competition between drivers, as the last repeat champion came in 2019 and 2020 with Andrew Yoder picking up 2 of his 3 championships those years. Drivers by the likes of Devin Hart, who won the track championship in 2021 and won the Hagerstown track championship in 2023 is expected to be in competition as well as Shawn Shoemaker won took home the crown in 2023.
