TJ Michael Ready To Invade Posse Country
Story By: TYLER ALTMEYER / MICHAEL MOTORSPORTS – FREMONT, OH – T.J. Michael’s 2017 Arctic Cat All Star Circuit of Champions schedule will hit high gear once again, this time aiming toward Central Pennsylvania where the “Texas Traveler” will battle the Pennsylvania Posse for four straight days stretching from Thursday, August 17, until Sunday, August 20.
Kicking off officially at Grandview Speedway on Thursday night, Michael and the Arctic Cat All Stars will visit Williams Grove Speedway, Lincoln Speedway and Susquehanna Speedway, respectively, during the upcoming weekend, all of which awarding $5,000 top prizes, as well as full points toward the 2017 Arctic Cat All Star championship. Michael, the 2016 Arctic Cat All Star Rookie of the Year runner-up, is currently sixth in the 2017 driver championship, accumulating a pair of top-ten finishes thus far this season, most recently at the Orange County Fair Speedway in Middletown, New York.
“The level of competition in Pennsylvania is sky high. For me, that is motivating because it gives us an opportunity to see where we are as a team,” Michael said, pilot of the Michael Motorsports/Advanced Cast Stone/Fremont Fence Company/Kear’s Speed Shop/Shell Shock/Hinchman Suits/Big D’s Pizza of Fremont and Clyde/Crown Battery/No. 8M. “I think the best thing for us is to head into the weekend with a clear mind and keep it in our heads that we have nothing to lose.”
