Swedesboro, New Jersey (June 18, 2025)………Justin Grant has taken the early lead of the USAC Eastern Storm Presented by Levan Machine & Truck Equipment standings entering Thursday’s June 19th round at Pottsville, Pennsylvania’s Big Diamond Speedway.
Grant (Ione, California) scored the victory in Wednesday night’s Eastern Storm opener at New Jersey’s Bridgeport Motorsports Park, and his lead stands at one over Briggs Danner (Allentown, Pennsylvania).
Kyle Cummins (Princeton, Indiana) is third (-5) while defending Eastern Storm champion Mitchel Moles (Raisin City, California) is fourth (-6). Daison Pursley (Locust Grove, Oklahoma) currently occupies the fifth spot (-12).
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.
