Doug Manmiller ‘Handles’ The Thunder On The Hill 358-Modified Feature Tuesday At Grandview

Story By: BOB MILLER / THUNDER ON THE HILL – BECHTELSVILLE, PA – Doug Manmiller secured a win in the NASCAR 358-Modified portion of the Thunder on the Hill Racing Series event Tuesday evening at Grandview Speedway.
Manmiller of Shoemakerville, PA, overtook Timmy Buckwalter on the third lap of the 30-lap main event. Buckwalter remained in contention for the win in chase of the $2,000 bonus posted by Pioneer Pole Building for a first time Thunder on the Hill Modified feature winner.
The caution flew for the first time on lap 8 when Danny Bouc slowed on the speedway, but that didn’t stop Manmiller who charged quickly away from Buckwalter and VonDohren setting a sizable lead over his competition.
Multiple cautions in the final ten laps weren’t enough to stop Manmiller – aboard the Jason Miller No. 44 machine – he easily sailed to victory with Timmy Buckwalter finishing in the second position, Jeff Strunk in the third position, Craig VonDohren in fourth and Mike Gular rounding out the top five.
It was a thrilling night of PA Speedweek action presented by Red Robin and marked the 155th Series event brought to you by HVAC Distributors and Pioneer Pole Buildings. The action-packed night celebrated an exciting doubleheader of two of the most popular divisions, including the 410 Sprints, with support from HVAC Distributors and Pioneer Pole Buildings.
