Dietrich continues winning ways with Sunday Selinsgrove triumph; Ohio Sprint Speedweek begins Friday

By Fully Injected Motorsports:

GETTYSBURG, Pa. (June 3, 2024) – Success continues to be the underlying theme for “Double-D” Danny Dietrich and Gary Kauffman Racing, not only securing three consecutive top-ten scores in their recent three-race sweep through Central Pennsylvania, but accumulating two podiums and a victory in the process, the triumph occurring in a Sunday stop at Selinsgrove Speedway on June 2.

The Selinsgrove victory, Dietrich’s sixth triumph of the season and worth $5,000, lined up to be a perfect case of redemption, as he was denied by one position just one night prior in Lincoln Speedway’s Steve Smith Tribute worth $10,119-to-win. Double-D did his best to grab a hold of the five-figure payday, but Troy Wagaman Jr. held strong, keeping Dietrich at bay even when the Gettysburg native attempted a last corner dive through turns three and four.

 

As noted, it was a three-for-three weekend for Dietrich in the top-ten category, opening action with a ninth-place score at Williams Grove Speedway on Friday, May 31.

 

“We wanted that win at Lincoln, but getting the ‘W’ last night at Selinsgrove is a pretty solid consolation prize. It’s been a pretty incredible few weeks. We’ll work to keep this going through Ohio Sprint Speedweek,” Dietrich, ace of Gary Kauffman’s Weikert’s Livestock, Sandoe’s Fruit Market, Derek Snyder & Self Made Racing, York Excavating, Big Cove Whitetail Trophy Hunts, Drop Of Ink Tattoo, No. 48 sprint car, said. “Just hats off to the entire team, and to our fans. They hung tough through the bad times and now we get to celebrate the good times. See everyone in Ohio.”

 

COMING UP NEXT:
Danny Dietrich and Gary Kauffman Racing will continue their 2024 campaign with a full FAST on Dirt Ohio Sprint Speedweek slate beginning at Attica Raceway Park in Attica, Ohio, on Friday, June 7.
