Join Kasey, Tony and Dave for some great Pennsylvania racing and give back to charity at the same time!

The Ollie's 360 Challenge will begin at Sharon Speedway on June 17. The second race in the three event series will take place at Eldora Speedway on July 8 with the event finale scheduled for Williams Gove Speedway on August 19. Paying $6,000 to each winner and a minimum of $500 to each A-main competitor, the Ollie's 360 Challenge series will rank as one of the highest paying 360 sprint car events of 2008. All drivers competing in at least two of the three events are eligible for the $50,000 bonus, which will be awarded to the driver who can win two of three A-main events.

The third and final round of the Ollie's 360 Challenge will be hosted by Kasey Kahne and wrap up at Williams Grove Speedway in Mechanicsburg, Pa., on August 19. The facility, a favorite of Kahne's, boasts a half-mile speedplant and one of the most loyal sprint car racing fan bases in the country. In 2007, the Ollie's Bargain Outlet Shootout event hosted by Williams Grove Speedway raised more than $75,000 for the Kasey Kahne Foundation. It's a favor that Kahne is eager to reciprocate in August.

"Williams Grove Speedway is one of my favorite tracks to race on," Kahne said. "I grew up racing sprint cars around the country and I always enjoyed racing at ‘The Grove.' Last year, we worked with Ollie's and the track to help raise $75,000 for the Kasey Kahne Foundation and I really appreciated all of the effort the facility and staff put into the event. We're looking forward to working with Ollie's Bargain Outlet again this year and I'm happy to announce that the proceeds from the Grove event will go to support the Kasey Kahne Foundation this year as well. It will be great to get to compete in these three events with Tony and Dave, as well as race against the drivers who run 360/358 sprint cars each week. All three races will be great for the fans, especially if someone can pull off winning the $50,000 bonus."

The Williams Grove race not only culminates the series, it solidifies Ollie's Bargain Outlet's commitment to charity.

"Having a charitable tie-in is extremely important to Ollie's," said Mark Butler, a newly appointed member to the Kasey Kahne Foundation Chairman's Board. "We, as a company, strive to give back to our community in any way we can. Being able to connect with the community in an exciting way via the 360 Challenge and charitably through the Kasey Kahne Foundation gives us the best of both worlds."
