Outlaws Eye Lernerville for Don Martin Memorial Silver Cup
The high-banked track hosts the 21st annual twin-feature event on Tuesday, July 17
SARVER, Pa. — July 3, 2012 — All eyes will be on the famed Lernerville Speedway in two weeks.
On Tuesday, July 17, the high-banked, 4/10-mile track hosts the 21st annual Don Martin Memorial Silver Cup – a unique event with a pair of $10,000-to-win, 30-lap features in honor of longtime track owner Don Martin. The World of Outlaws Sprint Car Series event will also be filmed to air on SPEED later this summer.
Since 2009, the special event showcases two features. The show runs like a usual World of Outlaws event until after the checkered flag is waved on the initial 30-lap feature. After a short intermission, the second 30-lap feature is lined up based on an invert of cars on the lead lap from the first feature. The overall winner is one of the segment winners who has the best average finish between the two main events, earning a $5,000 bonus.
