KNOXVILLE, IOWA (September 23, 2007) - The Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pennsylvania, will once again host the joint National Sprint Car Hall of Fame (NSCHoF)/Eastern Museum of Motor Racing (EMMR) benefit auction on Saturday, September 29, at 1 p.m. The annual joint auction is free and open to the public, and will be held near the Chili Cook-Off on the backstretch on the afternoon of the 45th annual Williams Grove National Open, sanctioned by the World of Outlaws (WoO) and presented by Cleveland Brothers.

According to National Sprint Car Museum marketing director Craig Agan, “It is such a pleasure for us to work with the fine people at the Eastern Museum of Motor Racing and the Williams Grove Speedway on this fundraising event. Lynn Paxton, Joe Heisler, Morgan Hughes, Allan Kreitzer, Justin Loh and others just make us feel so welcome every year in the fall during this historic event. We are bringing out some unique, autographed memorabilia this year for the auction, in addition to our Shaver-powered, JEI-chassis raffle sprint car #7.”
