July 24th, 2020

MECHANICSBURG, PENNSYLVANIA (July 24, 2020) – With four races in five nights, Philip Dietz, Clyde Knipp and Nate Repetz were hustling in the heat all week. The heat and humidity was simply unrelenting which made their days long and hard away from the track. All too often the crew’s efforts go unnoticed by the fans as they humbly work extremely hard to accomplish their jobs before they even arrive at the track. Early morning maintenance. Late night car washes. Long drives to the next track. Success at the track does not happen just by showing up at the track. It is a direct result of everything preparation wise that happens when no one is looking away from the tracks. The ‘to-do’ task lists never get any shorter and the process repeats itself after each race day. After their 4th place finish in the Gettysburg Clash on Thursday evening at Lincoln Speedway, the JJR crew had smiles on their faces and were looking to continue to positive momentum to build on their consistency on the first of two nights of racing in the Champion Oil Summer Nationals at Williams Grove Speedway.

David Gravel has had some success here in the past. He and the JJR #41 team were one of 42 teams situated on the backstretch paved pit area at the 3/8-mile speed plant nestled in the Pigeon Hills of Pennsylvania. It was race day at Lincoln Speedway pitting the Outlaws versus the PA Posse!
