RELEASE-Gresham in Victory Lane at GMP

JEFFERSON, GA (June 12, 2011)  The Slack Auto Parts 150 was nothing short of exciting, but even the rain, lightning and 2 ½ hour rain delay couldn’t keep fans and drivers away from Gresham Motorsports Park.

Max Gresham was able to share a sweet victory with his family, who own GMP, in victory lane after finishing first in tonight’s NASCAR K&N Pro Series East race at GMP. Born and raised in Griffin, Ga., Gresham’s win could not have come at a better time or track. Gresham

Gresham started on the pole and battled with Darrell Wallace Jr. the entire night for the first place position. He was able to lead 98 of the 150 laps.

Matt DiBenedetto ran a steady third place and finished second. Andrew Smith finished third, Darrell Wallace Jr. fourth and Corey LaJoie rounded out the top five.

GMP local divisions was just as exciting as the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East event! Brian Sosbee finished first in the Renegades, Matthew Wragg in the Outlaw Late Models, Brandon Jones in the Trucks and Vernon Hicks in the Mini Stocks.
