The Tommy Classic will feature time trials, heats and a 30-lap main paying $5,000 to win out of a total purse worth over $25,000.
The Tommy Classic will also kickoff the 2017 Diamond Series of events at the oval, a series of races that carries its own points and resulting payoff at season’s end.
The PASS/IMCA 305 sprint cars are also on the Tommy Classic program.
May 5 will find Williams Grove Speedway in action with another Yellow Breeches 500 for the 410 sprints along with the 358 sprint cars at 8 pm.
