Paulson Masters ‘The Grove’ for First Win

By Frank Buhrman MECHANICSBURG, Pa. (May 23, 2025) — Jeff Paulson, a regular Mid Atlantic Sprint Series driver, took advantage of Landon Price’s misfortune and scored his first RaceSaver IMCA Sprint Car victory in his first time racing at Williams Grove Speedway with the River Valley Builders PA Sprint Series. Paulson made the trek from Honey Brook in Chester County to Mechanicsburg pay off big-time. He finished third in his heat race, then drew the outside front row starting position for the feature, beside Price, who had looked dominating earlier in the program and seemed on his way to a second consecutive win, after taking the checkers at BAPS Motor Speedway the previous Sunday. Price, who had won his heat by nearly seven seconds, jumped out to the early lead and began to distance himself from the field, with Paulson holding on for second. The expected outcome changed dramatically, however, when the leader apparently made contact with one of the tires marking the inside boundary of the track in turn four and lost a wheel [Read More]
