Of all the drivers who compete at Tri-City Speedway, Billy Van Pelt may travel the farthest from home.
Modified star looks forward to the three-hour trip each week.
And he is eager for his first win at the half-mile oval. I like racing at Tri-City. Swartzlander is the current DIRT Modified point leader at Tri-City while Van Pelt sits second in the standings. No. 11R, Van Pelt has yet to score a feature win. In fact, he seems to be the perennial bridesmaid because he has four career second place finishes at the Venango County dirt track.
