Stewart Friesen Drives To Short Track Super Series Win At Georgetown
Stewart Friesen overcame a bad pill draw and drove to the front in Thursday's Short Track Super Series Blast at the Beach at Georgetown Speedway.
After drawing 72 at the Dirt Draft pre-race draw, Sprakers, N.Y.’s Stewart Friesen got his third Bob Hilbert Sportswear Short Track Super Series (STSS) Fueled By Sunoco victory of the 2023 on Tuesday night.
Friesen claimed the $6,000 Hale Trailers ‘Blast at the Beach’ title, his third win in the 10-year history of the event in Round No. 4 of the Rent Equip/Party Central South Region.
The win was also the 39th of Friesen’s STSS career, the most all-time.
Friesen raced by Ryan Godown on a lap-18 restart and never looked back, taking home the $6,000 triumph.
Godown settled for the runner-up spot.
Matt Sheppard rounded out the podium but was unable to make it to Victory Lane as the rear broke on his No. 9s and he was towed over the scales.
