The early entry list for the HB Concerts Pomenade Pavillion 100 at Toldeo Speedway on Friday, July 26th with the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Presented by Chevrolet Performance features some of the top teams in the midwest, plus drivers who have waited 15 years for the chance to return to Toledo Speedway with their Pro Late Model program. After a mid-summer break, the JEGS Tour is gearing up for a big push into the run for a Championship at Winchester Speedway in October.
Toledo Speedway played host to the first-ever event for the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour in April of 2011. In that event, Brian Campbell picked up the win en route to becoming the winningest driver in the JEGS Tour history. Campbell’s time as a Touring driver has since come to an end, but he’s back on the road for the July 26th as he looks for his 12th JEGS Tour win. The Wyoming, MI native brings his Crystal Clean sponsored No.47 into hostile territory with many of the JEGS Tour regulars looking for a Toledo triumph.
Chase Burda, the defending JEGS Tour Champion returns to Toledo Speedway for the first time since a stellar run with the ASA STARS National Tour in last year’s Glass City 200. In his second-ever start with the STARS Tour, Burda brought his Lapeer Pool & Spa No.18 home in the third spot last season. His first win of the 2024 season came at Flat Rock Speedway in June, pulling him back into contention for the championship; he’ll need this win to solidify his contention among Blake Rowe and Chase Pinsonneault.
Rowe is no slouch at Toledo, however. In 2021 he battled side-by-side for several laps against Kyle Crump before collecting his first ASA/CRA Super Series win putting his name on the Template Late Model map. Rowe brings the Lisa Thomas Salon No.71 into Toledo four points behind fellow VanDoorn Racing Development (VRD) driver, Pinsonneault who is looking to build on his lead in his rookie season.
A native of Canada, Pinsonneault has yet to turn competitive laps at Toledo Speedway, however, a strong test session earlier this month with the guidance of VRD’s namesake, John VanDoorn and crew chief, Zach Dunson has the Carson Hocevar Racing driver feeling confident of their abilities heading into the 100 lap race on July 26th.
The HB Concerts Pomenade Pavillion 100 is Friday, July 26th at Toledo Speedway with the JEGS/CRA All-Stars Tour Presented by Chevrolet Performance. Advanced tickets are available at ToledoSpeedway.com.
