When Todd Gilliland announced he was going to run for both the East and West championship on the NASCAR K&N Pro Series East this season, he knew it wasn’t going to be easy. Saturday, Gilliland helped himself close the gap towards that goal.

The Sherrills Ford, North Carolina driver captured his second victory of the season on the East Series at New Hampshire Motor Speedway, which helped him close the gap to points leader Harrison Burton. The win was the third career on the East Series for Gilliland and his first at the 1.058-mile NHMS oval.

“My NAPA Auto Parts Camry was hooked up tonight,” Gilliland said. “The VHT has a lot of grip and when I was around other cars, I really turned the middle good. It sounds easy, but it was tough through practice. We weren’t as good when we unloaded. It was kind of an unknown waking up this morning knowing two other series were going to run out here.”

Gilliland started from the outside pole position, but he was quick to take the lead from Chase Purdy on the restart on lap eight. From there, the NAPA Racing driver pulled away and never was challenged for the remainder of the race. He led a total of 63 laps. With the win, he closed the gap to just 14 points to the top of the standings.

Chase Purdy, who captured his fourth straight 21 Means 21 Pole Award on Friday evening, finished second in the race. It was the third second place finish of the season for him after leading the first seven laps of the race.

Ronnie Bassett, Jr. finished third, while points leader Harrison Burton slid by Sheldon Creed in the final laps and finished fourth.

Tyler Dippel, Ruben Garcia, Jr., Dillon Bassett, Trey Hutchens and Brandon Oakley rounded out the top ten.

Burton leads Gilliland by 14 points leaving New Hampshire, while Chase Purdy, Ronnie Bassett, Jr. and Ruben Garica, Jr. round out the top five.

The NASCAR K&N Pro Series East returns to the track at Iowa Speedway on July 28.
