Sarver, PA (March 30, 2008) The Lernerville Speedway will try once again to wave the green flag on the 40th Anniversary Season of the Lernerville Speedway on Friday April 4. Opening Night will be the first of 19 nights of Fab Four racing scheduled for 2008. The Commercial Truck & Trailer Sprints, Freidman’s Freshmarkets UMP Super Late Models, Ferrante Motor Cars DIRTcar Modifieds and Advance Auto Parts UMP Street Stocks will all be in action this Friday Night at 7:30 for a Cash & Carry tune-up for the season long journey for the Budweiser Points title which begins the following week Friday April 11.
One of only two exceptions to the Friday Night Fab Four schedule is the All Star Circuit of Champions Sprint Car race originally scheduled for May 23. The All Stars recently accepted an invitation to join the Advance Auto Parts World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series at the Dirt Track at Lowe’s Motor Speedway for the Rite Aid Outlaw Showdown on that same date of Friday May 23.
As such, Lernerville General Manager Gary Risch Jr. and All Star President Guy Webb agreed to reschedule the Lernerville All Star race for Friday April 25. The Friedman’s Freshmarkets UMP Super Late Models and Advance Auto Parts UMP Street Stocks will also be in action along with the All Star and CTT Sprints. Both the Late Models and Street Stocks will be racing for Budweiser points, Sprints will earn only appearance points, and the Modifieds will have the night off.
May 23 is now scheduled as a full night of Fab Four Racing with all divisions racing for Budweiser Points. To see the entire 2008 Lernerville Speedway 40th Anniversary Season schedule log on to Lernerville.com.
The other exception to the Friday Night Fab Four schedule is the 2nd Annual Firecracker 100 presented by GottaRace.com. The Firecracker is scheduled for Friday-Saturday June 27-28 and will be televised on Sunday July 13 from 5-7 p.m. on SPEED.

Word out of Warren, PA is that 1990 Lernerville Late Model Track Champion Ron Davies will be “Back in Black” behind the wheel of the #71D this season, after taking a year off in 2007. At this time, Ron does not plan on running weekly at any track, rather he will hit the bigger shows in the area. You can expect to see Davies at the Action Track on April 4 for a Fab Four Race with the Friedman’s Freshmarkets UMP DIRTcar Super Late Models, on April 15 for the Showdown in Sarvertown sponsored by Y108 with the World of Outlaws Late Model Series, on June 27-28 for the 2nd Annual Firecracker 100 presented by GottaRace.com with the World of Outlaws Late Model Series, and possibly on Friday August 29 for the Cleveland Brothers CAT Jim Shank Memorial MACS Late Model race.
