Path needs a lighting upgrade for sure...If you dont choose the right seat you might have a infield light blasting you directly in the face...It may not be a necessary upgrade but it would be a nice upgrade..The catch fence concerns me more...They aready had a sportsman get through the fence and into the parking lot during a wingless show...

I would be interested to know how many attended the first show Rahmer put on...I'd be equally interested to know if more or less people show up for the next one...

PAPosseRacing.com had their drone there and they have some nice over head shots...I'm sure you could "guesstimate" the attendance by counting the cars in the parking lot and people standing around...

with the new technology Musco has avilable, that place could be lit with 2 poles - add a 3rd for the pits

Lincoln 1845 ft/.35 mile T1=118MPH 
Eldora 2287 ft/.43mile T3=135MPH
Port 2716 ft/.51 mile T3=TBD
Grove 2792 ft/.53 mile T3=135MPH
Selinsgrove 2847 ft/.54 mile T1=136MPH

I have  never  been to Path Valley  , but  understand  its  a  racey  little 1/4 mile track but does  need  some improvements .So this  year  will tell the tale  as  there  will be more  big dollar  events  there in 2015 .

I went to the first one but not the second one. It was OK but the hype is a little overrated IMO, kinda like the new kid in town. The place definitely needs a lot of work, more seating and better lighting for starters. I think it would be a great track for midgets and maybe wingless sprints. 1/4 mile is a little on the short side for winged 410's but it's something different once or twice a year, a novelty act.

It was one of the best races I saw all year. The winner didn't come from the front row and there was racing throughout..

The place needs a makeover

I didn't appreciate the parking natzis....I'll be back though!!!

I don't know about the Outlaw show, but it is just great that Path Valley will have three 410 shows.  Maybe the Outlaws will eventually come to Path Valley especially if the three Rahmer shows go as well as last year's Speedweek race.

I thoroughly enjoyed Speedweek race!

But midgets or wingless would realy kick ass..... Eastern Storm????

Usac Eastern storm was scheduled to be there 2 years ago...it rained out unfortunately 

ardc was there in September 2014...with wingless super sportsmans..good show for 10 bucks

It would be cool to see a usac/ardc double header next year!!

Frankie Kerr won the first National Tour non-wing race at Path Valley on May 7 1992--CRA Eastern tour.  PA placed two posse members in the top 5 (Fred Rahmer 2nd and Johnny Mackison in 5th).  Track got a little slick for non-wing cars. 

Those two pics are from Grandveiw I think.

Yes John, the track at Path that day was TOO slick. They were taking plug wires off for time trials. Actually fast timer Mike Kirby was one of those. Hot laps were great though. The rest of the night was not.
