Written by Chris Moore

PORT ROYAL, PA A Behrent™s boost.

The Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco is set for the third consecutive running of the Speed Showcase™ weekend at the state-of-the-art Port Royal Speedway.

The full weekend of racing takes place Thurs.-Sat. Oct. 13-15, culminating in Saturday™s 75-lap, $50,000-to-win main event for the STSS big-block/small-block Modifieds.

Behrent™s Performance Warehouse has signed on to present Thursday™s (Oct. 13) Preliminary Night™ to kick off the three-day racing festival.  

Behrent™s Performance Warehouse Preliminary Night™ features a full program for the STSS Modifieds and practice rounds for the STSS Crate 602 Sportsman of the Belmont™s Garage South Region.

The STSS Modifieds race for 40 laps around the sprawling half-mile speedway for a $5,500 payday.

Behrent™s Performance Warehouse has upped the ante for Thursday Night™s program, adding $5,000 to the total purse.

Each of the top-10 finishers in the 40-lap STSS Modified event will receive an additional $500 in their pay envelope, so long as their car is outfitted with a Behrent™s Performance Warehouse decal.

Behrent™s Performance Warehouse was founded by Harry Behrent in 1972 as Behrent™s Speed Center Inc., a general speed and tire shop aimed at the general automotive market. In 1982, a decision was made to focus on the parts and service market and leave behind Harry™s career as a driver. The speed center has grown to a nationally known leader in the automotive racing industry.
