Pottsville, Pennsylvania (June 19, 2025)………Kyle Cummins surged to the top of the USAC Eastern Storm Presented by Levan Machine & Truck Equipment standings following his victory on Thursday night at Pennsylvania’s Big Diamond Speedway.
A mere three points separate the top-three of the Eastern Storm points entering Friday night’s June 20 round at Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania’s Williams Grove Speedway.
Cummins (Princeton, Indiana) also finished fourth in Wednesday’s opener at New Jersey’s Bridgeport Motorsports Park, and his lead stands at two over Briggs Danner (Allentown, Pennsylvania) at 150 with defending Eastern Storm champion Mitchel Moles (Raisin City, California) third at 149.
Bridgeport winner Justin Grant (Ione, California) is fourth (-13) while Daison Pursley (Locust Grove, Oklahoma) currently occupies the fifth spot (-15).
Levan Machine & Truck Equipment is serving as the presenting sponsor of the 18th edition of USAC Eastern Storm, with each event paying $6,000-to-win and featuring a point fund totaling $10,000 with $5,000 of that going to the champion.
As the series hits the weekend, two historic 1/2-miles are on tap with Williams Grove taking center stage on Friday, June 20. The Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania venue is one of the USAC originals, having hosted its first series event in USAC’s inaugural season of 1956.
The second of the two 1/2-mile tracks on the docket is slated for Saturday, June 21, at Port Royal Speedway in the penultimate round of Eastern Storm. The event will also feature USAC’s Silver Crown National Championship.
Kutztown, Pennsylvania’s Action Track USA caps off a busy week of racing on Sunday, June 22. The smallest track on the entire USAC National Sprint Car schedule at 1/6-mile produces big excitement as evidenced by 2024’s photo finish between Logan Seavey and Briggs Danner.
