Ryan Moore Takes St.
Patrick's 150 Win
at Hickory After
Butcher & Hopkins
Collide |
|

After
controversial
contact between
front-runners Cole
Butcher and Mike
Hopkins in the
closing laps, Ryan
Moore picked up the
win in the Pro All
Stars Series (PASS)
St. Patrick's 150 at
Hickory Motor
Speedway.
Ryan Moore inherited
the win after
Butcher and Hopkins
made contact
battling for the win
with two laps to go.
Hopkins took the
lead with three laps
to go, but Butcher
and Hopkins made
contact with two
laps to go exiting
turn two.
Hopkins spun into
the inside wall on
the backstretch,
collecting Garrett
Hall in the process.
Under the caution,
Hopkins drove his
car towards
Butcher's on the
backstretch to
express his
displeasure with the
incident.
Butcher was sent to
the rear of the
field for his role
in the incident,
turning the lead
over to Ryan Moore.
On the ensuing
green-white-checkered
restart, Moore held
off Gabe Brown to
take the win in the
first of two 150-lap
PASS Super Late
Model races on
Saturday at Hickory.
Butcher took the
lead from Cory Hall on
lap 16 of the race
and led the way for
most of the race.
However, it was not
without pressure
from the likes of
Cory Hall and Mike
Hopkins.
Hall
and Hopkins were
able to stay within
shouting distance of
Butcher throughout
the race. However,
those two drivers
made contact while
battling
side-by-side for
second in turn
three. Hall received
the worst end of the
contact, having to
pit for repairs
under caution with
23 laps to go.
That contact did
not deter Hopkins,
and he challenged
Butcher for the lead
in the closing laps
before the climactic
exchange with two
laps to go.
The St. Patrick's
Day 150 is the first
of two PASS races at
Hickory on Saturday.

Derek Griffith
Bounces Back for
Third Easter Bunny
150 Win |
|
by Zach Evans

Derek
Griffith returned to
victory lane at
Hickory Motor
Speedway on Saturday
evening, scoring his
third career win in
the Pro All Stars
Series (PASS) Easter
Bunny 150.
In
some ways, it was a
vintage performance
for Griffith. In
2021, when Griffith
swept the Easter
Bunny weekend
doubleheader, he led
212 of the weekend's
300 laps of racing.
On Saturday, he took
the lead on lap 16
and pulled away to
finish more than
seven seconds ahead
of Max Cookson,
leaving just four
drivers on the lead
lap.
In other
ways, it was a
massive bounceback
to what has been a
frustrating run over
recent years for the
former PASS National
Champion. Saturday
even started with
frustration, running
just 70 laps in the
St. Patrick's Day
150 to open this
year's doubleheader.
"We just
struggled so much
earlier today," said
Griffith in victory
lane. "We broke a
heim joint in the
lower pulling out to
the second race.
This thing's been
kicking our butt all
day.
"I can't
thank my guys
enough. We've had a
tough couple of
years here. To come
out and run as well
as we did, I'm
pumped."
Perhaps the biggest
trophy of all is
bringing the car
back home in one
piece. An incident
in the ASA STARS
National Tour opener
at Five Flags
Speedway was the
latest in a series
of vicious crashes
for Griffith, a
series that also
includes a flip at
New Hampshire Motor
Speedway.
The
car is intact, and
it is fast to start
the 2024 PASS
season.
"It's
just momentum, you
know. We get to go
back home, and
especially with how
bad we were earlier
today, to be as good
as we were. We've
got a good piece to
go to Thompson,
Loudon, Lee, we'll
be all over the
place. It didn't get
wrecked by a
knucklehead in
Florida, so we're in
good shape."
Ryan Moore, the
winner of the first
PASS race of the
day, did not get the
opportunity to sweep
the doubleheader on
Saturday. He was
involved in a heat
race incident with
Jarrett Butcher,
with neither car
returning to
competition for the
feature race.
Jarrett Butcher was
driving the No. 53
his brother, Cole
Butcher, raced in
the St. Patrick's
Day 150. Cole
Butcher led the
majority of that
race but was
involved in an
incident with Mike
Hopkins with two
laps to go while
battling for the
win.
The next
stop for the Pro All
Stars Series will be
the 50th Thompson
Icebreaker at
Thompson Speedway
Motorsports Park.
The PASS Super Late
Models will race on
Saturday, April 6 as
part of the historic
event. |
