(N. Woodstock, NH) – Derek Griffith, the Hudson, NH native is having a breakout 2016 season on the Pro All Stars Series (PASS), the No. 12 Hitman Industries/LCM Racing team garnered another solid finish this past weekend at White Mountain Motorsports Park (WMMP)
WMMP is a ¼-mile, high-banked oval and Griffith has won on the track before in Pro Stock racing. The young racer was hoping for a repeat last Saturday night.
Starting 12th in the field of 17 Super Late Models, Griffith got caught up in a racing incident early on and was shuffled back to the end of field on the initial restart. Griffith was able to work his back through the field and was solidly in the top-10 for the remainder of the race.
Great side-by-side racing with Griffith and Travis Benjamin produced excitement for the fans and once again proved to Griffith that he can consistently compete with the best on the PASS Series.
Griffith came away with a solid seventh-place finish and maintained his sixth-place in the season long point’s standings with just two races to go.
Up next for the No. 12 LCM Racing/FEP Insurance Toyota race team is Star Speedway. Derek considers Star his home track and is looking for another top-5 finish. The last time the PASS Series rolled into Star, Derek finished in the fifth place. The race at Star is scheduled for Saturday, October 1st with a post time of 4:30pm.
