(Hartford, OH)…After Mother Nature claimed last Saturday night's "Lou Blaney Memorial", great weather is in the forecast for this Saturday night's (August 24) "Steel Valley Thunder" finale presented by A&MP Electric and Sunburst Environmental. The Hovis Auto & Truck Supply UMP Modifieds will headline the program in the "Bill Gabrielson Memorial". The Econo Mod Mania Tour and the HTMA/Precise Racing Products RUSH Sportsman Modifieds will add to the excitement for a Modified tripleheader, while the Gibson Insurance Agency Pro Stocks will round out the four-division program. Group qualifying for the UMP Mods will get underway at 6:40 p.m. followed by racing.![]()

The Hovis Auto & Truck UMP Modifieds will be making their fourth appearance of 2024 on Saturday night, but richest to date in the second annual "Bill Gabrielson Memorial" as the 25-lap feature will pay $2,558 to-win/$258 to-start! The complete payoff is posted below. Gabrielson passed away in 2013 from cancer. Gabrielson owns 42 career wins at Sharon including 40 in the Semi-Late division, which is the most all-time.
