Derek Griffith ⁢Claims $10,000 Granite State Pro Stock⁢ Series Victory at Lee USA⁣ Speedway

LEE, N.H. – ⁣ Derek Griffith kicked off the NASCAR weekend⁢ at Lee ⁣USA Speedway with⁣ a commanding win in Saturday’s Keen Parts 150, securing a $10,000 prize⁢ and further solidifying his ⁢position as a frontrunner in the Granite‌ State Pro Stock⁤ Series.Griffith lead‍ the 150-lap feature from the pole, demonstrating the strength of his ⁢equipment and skill behind⁣ the wheel.

The ​victory marks a meaningful early-season achievement for Griffith, ​who​ is⁣ already contemplating future ​racing ​plans, including‌ potential participation in the upcoming Derby race and‌ a 400-lap event with PASS scheduled ⁤for ‍the end of October. The Granite state Pro Stock Series is a ​regional touring series known for its competitive racing‍ and talented drivers,​ serving as a proving⁢ ground for aspiring‌ NASCAR‍ stars and a popular draw for short track enthusiasts throughout New England.

Griffith’s dominant performance ​at Lee USA Speedway showcased his versatility and adaptability. He currently fields three​ chassis, including the winning car, a PASS-configured machine acquired‍ from Garrett Hall ‌in‌ 2022, and​ a chassis specifically‍ for national-level⁣ events. ⁣”The red chassis car⁢ came from Canada.It used ‍to be owned by Kyle Reid,”​ Griffith said. ⁢”That’s ⁤the car we’ve run at Speedweeks. ‌We’ve only run it at⁢ Speedweeks so far. It was ‍a damn good car. I don’t know, I‍ think this new generation ‌of​ Fury chassis is so much better. ​I don’t‍ know what we’re going⁣ to do.”

Despite the success of his existing cars, Griffith⁣ is evaluating his options with ⁤newer equipment. “Those other cars were ‍so damn good,” he noted. “They​ won⁢ so ⁤many races. I don’t know what I’m going to do yet.”
