PASS North Series: Bradley Babb
White Mountain Motorsports Park Race Preview
THE STORY
WINDHAM, Maine – Bradley Babb of Windham, Maine, joins the PASS North Series for a rare doubleheader with two PASS 150s at White Mountain Motorsports Park in North Woodstock, N.H., on Saturday, August 31. The starting field was set for the first PASS 150 before the main event was rained out on August 4, while the second PASS 150 will be the one originally scheduled for the date. Babb finished third – his best career PASS North Series finish – at White Mountain in 2011, the last time he competed on the scenic, high-banked quarter-mile. Babb sits 21st in the current PASS North standings, despite making only four starts, with two qualifying race wins and one Top-10 finish. The 2012 NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Maine state champion is hoping to rebound at White Mountain after a blown engine at Oxford Plains Speedway during qualifying forced him out of the TD Bank Oxford 250 last month.

CHARLOTTE, NC (August 14) – Over the last year and a half, Pro All Stars Series (PASS) South Super Late Model front runners Jay Fogleman and Kyle Grissom have been seemingly inseparable. Fogleman began racing full-time with PASS in 2009 and has since gone on to win 8 races and claim the 2012 PASS National Championship. Grissom stormed on to the PASS South scene in 2012 winning, the prestigious Easter Bunny 150 at Hickory Motor Speedway before going on a Summer tear that saw him win three races in-a-row en route to the series championship.
Through eight PASS South races that have been contested so far this year, Fogleman and Grissom are neck-and-neck with one another again, each scoring five top five’s and six top 10’s. While Grissom does have a two-to-one edge in race wins compared to the Durham, NC veteran, Fogleman holds a 24 point advantage in the standings based mostly on a tough weekend for both drivers in the last PASS South event at Southern National Motorsports Park. Grissom finished 23rd due to an engine problem, while Fogleman fared slightly better, finishing 15th after being involved in a late race crash. Despite the intense nature of the competition on the track, Grissom has enjoyed his new found rivalry.
