Lauren Butler
Jennerstown Banquet
Jennerstown Speedway held there annual championship banquet at the Ramada Inn in Greensburg,Pa on November 3,2017. Lauren as well as the division champions were honored. Vicki Emig from The RUSH Dirt/Asphalt Series also attended and presented the Late Model, Modified, and Street Stock Champions with their beautiful plaques and jackets even though their banquet will be featured at a later date. The Series's generosity was also very appreciated when they raffled off over $21,000 worth of cash and prizes to their drivers. We at Edlin Motorsports would like to congratulate Chris Brink (Modified Champion), Jeremiah Kuntz (Late Model Champion), Brent Bickerstaff (4 Cylinder Champion), and Jason Pritts (Charger Champion) as well as all the racers that attended. They also honored all f the division's Rookie of The Year, Most Improved, and Mechanic of the year which to everyone's surprise went to Lauren's father Eddie Butler, and was truly an honor and in Hribar's words "An inspiration to all of us."
We would again like to thank all of our sponsors for supporting us through this year and for everything they did to keep our team going. They are:

We would also like to give a huge thank you to Brad Hibbard at RACE1 for building us another amazing crate. He has been our builder for the last 4 years and his work has been impeccable and nothing short of what he promises to deliver. Another shout out to Jim Harding from Bilstein Shocks for the late night talks and help with figuring out the shock package set-ups on the car. Without you i'm not sure we would be where we are.
General manager Bill Hribar announced that construction at the beautiful 1/2 mile track has begun to alleviate the amount of flooding and loss of pit stalls by installing new concrete pipes. Also next years schedule is in place and that they plan on holding 3 practice sessions beginning April 21, 2018 and opening night is May 12,2018. The Super Cup Series will still be apart of the schedule with 2 featured races mid-late season and a new division will be starred. They are the Super Modifieds and are said to be wicked fast. We can't wait to see what this next season holds for us, and where it'll take us and everyone else!!! Let the winter work begin!!!! T-23 weeks& 4 days!!!!!!
