Last week's ranking in parentheses.
1. Daryn Pittman(1) - 7th @ WG, 8th @ Port Royal, 1st @ Sportsmans - More solid runs including a win in a surprise trip to Sportsmans Speedway in Knox, PA. One of the favorites to win Speedweek.
2. Stevie Smith(2) - 15th @ Attica, 13th @ KC, 5th @ Millstream - Trying to defend last year's Ohio Speedweek title. Off to a slow start but looking to improve on Sunday's 5th place run.

4. Greg Hodnett(6) - 6th @ WG, 17th @ Port Royal - Regains WG points with a solid run but falters at Port in an attempt to inch closer to the lead. Defending Speedweek Champ.

6. Lance Dewease(7) - 12th @ WG, 4th @ Lincoln - 5th place in WG points. Pulls even with Mr. Rahmer for most top-10s. Past Speedweek Champion.
7. Brian Montieth(4) - 14th @ WG, 10th @ Lincoln - Has qualified for and started every race entered this season, the only driver running 10 or more races to do so.
8. Brian Leppo(5) - 23rd @ WG, 9th @ Lincoln - Four straight top-10s at Lincoln and sitting 4th in points.
9. Mark Smith(12) - 11th @ WG, 6th @ Lincoln - Still improving. Mark will be looking to have a strong Speedweek.
10. Alan Krimes(8) - 9th @ WG, 24th @ Lincoln - Another solid run at Williams Grove. Suffered worst finish at Lincoln this season. Yes, we said the same thing last week.
11. Tyler Walker(10) - 9th @ Attica, 23rd @ KC, 12th @ Millstream - Trying his hand at the Ohio Speedweek with mixed results.
12. Aaron Ott(11) - 5th @ WG, DNQ @ Lincoln - Recorded a top-5 at WG but followed with an unfortunate DNQ at Lincoln
Honorable Mention. Danny Dietrich() - 1st @ WG, 2nd @ Lincoln - Stellar weekend - Part one! He was close to making the top 12, but leading up to last week the results at WG and Lincoln were just not there recently, only one top-15 at each since May 1st. Ran well at the other Keystone Cup tracks though.
Honorable Mention. Brent Marks() - 2nd @ WG, 1st @ Lincoln - Stellar weekend - Part two! He's been very good at Lincoln, up to 2nd in points, but everywhere else not so much. Before last Friday's 2nd at WG, an 8th at Hagerstown was his only finish better than 14th away from Lincoln.
Hard Luck. Justin Henderson() - 17th @ WG, DNS @ Port Royal - Since his awesome performance during May Outlaws weekend, Justin's best finish is a 12th. Here's hoping for a strong Speedweek Performance.

Honorable Mention. Mark Coldren, Dave Ely, Bob Howard & Adam Wilt() - - Just wanted to give a mention to a few of the unranked drivers who have done some travelling over the past few weeks and represented PA admirably.
Hard Luck. A.J. Michael() - - This isn't for anything on-track. Due to the economy and loss of some sponsorship, A.J.'s team was recently sold and A.J. will not be racing 410s at this time. It's sad to lose a team that supported Williams Grove week in and week out for the last few years so suddenly. Here's wishing A.J. well in his future racing endeavours.
