WALPOLE, N.H. – For the second time in 2016, the Granite State Pro Stock Series (GSPSS) is headed for Claremont Speedway.
This Friday, the GSPSS kicks-off the month of August at the 1/3 mile Claremont oval with the running of the Bond Auto 100 under the lights in New Hampshire.
Back in June, fans were left on the edge of their seats when Jeremy Davis, DJ Shaw and Derek Griffith battled hard in the final laps of the 100-lap feature, making the race itself worth the price of admission. In the end, Davis drove by Griffith on the final lap and rolled into victory lane behind the wheel of his No. 09.
This time, Belchertown, Massachusetts native Barry Gray, who leads the series point standings, is hoping to have better luck compared to June and challenge those up front. Gray struggled with the setup under the hood of his No. 29 and finished sixth at the first visit. He hopes this time will result in a better finish.

The night’s action was split into a pair of 25-lap features using regular handicapping, and a final 10-lap segment with the starting order determined based on best combined finish in the twin 25’s. Kruczek started pole in that one, and despite a late-race challenge that saw Jimmy Russell move past for a split second, Kruczek held on to complete the perfect night.
