BECHTELSVILLE, Pa. — A packed house filled Grandview Speedway on Tuesday night as the Levan Machine & Truck Equipment Thunder on the Hill Racing Series hosted the fifth stop of Pennsylvania Sprint Car Speed Week Series of 2026.
“The Concrete Kid” Anthony Macri earned one of the biggest victories of his career by capturing the prestigious Hodnett Cup and the $10,000 top prize.
“I’ve wanted to win here so bad. This is a bucket list win that I finally get to check off,” said Macri after earning his first career Thunder on the Hill victory.
Parker Price-Miller and Logan Rumsey brought the 35-lap Pennsylvania 410 Sprint Car Speed Week feature to the green flag, with Rumsey jumping into the early lead with Brady Bacon settling into third and Macri quickly moving into fourth.
Rumsey set a blistering pace over the opening laps, but the battle behind him continued to intensify as Bacon repeatedly challenged Price-Miller for second and Macri searched all over the speedway for the fastest line.
As the leaders encountered heavy lapped traffic, Macri found another gear. He worked his way around Bacon for third before slipping underneath Price-Miller to take over second on lap 11. Two laps later, Macri drove deep to the inside of Rumsey entering turn one and completed the winning pass exiting turn two to take command of the race.
From there, Macri was simply untouchable.
Bacon advanced into second and Chase Dietz mounted a charge into the top five, and Macri expertly picked his way through lapped traffic, steadily increasing his advantage over the field.
Macri crossed the finish line for his first Thunder on the Hill victory after charging from the sixth starting position.
Bacon finished second, followed by Price-Miller, Dietz and Danny Dietrich. Rumsey, who led the opening 12 laps, settled for sixth ahead of Ryan Smith, James McFadden, Brock Zearfoss and Freddie Rahmer.
