With that said, we couldn’t be more excited to be returning to the West Virginia’s premier racing facility in June with an incredible night of entertainment,” said Jim Marchyshyn, Thunder Jam Operations Manager. “This will be the first time Grave Digger, the world’s most famous race vehicle, has ever been to the area and that is not lost on Randy. He has assured me that his race against the ‘Spirit of Alabama’ jet dragster will be one of the most exciting races West Virginia fans have ever seen.
