BILLY PAUCH TAKES THE WING OFF FOR USAC NATIONAL SPRINT TOUR EVENT AT
GRANDVIEW WEDNESDAY, JUNE 6

The USAC National Wingless Sprint Tour will invade the Grandview
Speedway on Wednesday night, June 6th for the second event of the 2007
NAPA Auto Parts Thunder on the Hill Racing Series event. This will mark
the first ever appearance by the USAC Wingless Sprints on the Hill.
Wingless sprint car racing is not uncommon to Grandview, as the CRA
(California Racing Association) Wingless Sprints invaded Grandview in
1992 when Mike Kirby took the win. In 1993, CRA returned to Grandview
and Billy Pauch stood on the podium. Then in August of 2002, Ron Shuman
brought the SCRA wingless sprints to Grandview. After a long fought
battle wit J.J. Yeley, Billy Pauch scored his second wingless win with
Yeley finishing a close second.

On Wednesday night, June 6 the USAC Wingless Sprints will compete in the
COMDIAL Telephone Communications Time Trials with $200 going to fast
time of the night. Following Time Trials, the USAC Sprints will
compete in a series of 10 lap heat races, a "B" Main and the 35 lap
$4,000 to win feature event.

Also on the program is the ARDC Wingless Midgets, making their only
visit to Grandview Speedway in 2007. Heats, a "B" Main and a 20 lap
feature will make-up their racing program. COMDIAL Telephone
Communications will also post $200 for any first time Grandview Speedway
ARDC feature winner. Headlining the list of ARDC entries include Andy
Martin, Billy Pauch Jr., Ray Bull, Ryan Smith, Eric Heydenreich, Brett
Arndt, Frank Polimeda and A.J. Ernesto.

Early entries for the USAC Wingless Sprints include Lucas Wolfe, USAC
point leader Darren Hagen, Levi Jones, Dave Darland, Jerry Coons, Ricky
Stenhouse, Robert Ballou, Brady Short, Kevin Swindell, Jesse Hockett,
Johnny Heydenreich, Brady Bacon, and Dustin Morgan just to name a few.
