March 2026 Edition | Volume 7

Landen Lewis made a strong first impression in his debut with Niece Motorsports at the St. Petersburg Street Course. Lewis ran inside the top-five for much of the race and ultimately brought home a sixth-place finish in the series’ first appearance at the challenging street circuit.

The momentum didn’t stop there. Lewis also captured the Jerry Moody Memorial at Southern National Motorsports Park while driving for KHI, adding another impressive result to an already strong start to the season.

Niece Motorsports was proud to welcome Zambos as a partner with Andrés Pérez de Lara for the NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series race on the Streets of St. Petersburg, where the young driver earned a seventh-place result.

The partnership brought the iconic plantain chip brand to NASCAR as it supported Pérez de Lara and the No. 44 team during the series’ debut at the challenging street course. Zambos, a brand with deep roots in Latin America and a growing presence in the United States, partnered with Pérez de Lara as he continues to represent a new generation of international talent in NASCAR.

Ben Maier made his debut with Niece Motorsports at the Streets of St. Petersburg behind the wheel of the No. 4 Chevrolet Silverado. After showing strong speed in practice, qualifying was unfortunately rained out, forcing Maier to start at the back of the field for the race.

Undeterred, Maier methodically worked his way through the field on the challenging street circuit, gaining positions throughout the race and ultimately bringing home an impressive 11th-place finish.

Niece Motorsports is proud to welcome renowned short track talent Connor Hall to its NASCAR CRAFTSMAN Truck Series (NCTS) driver lineup.

The 29-year-old Hampton, Virginia, native will drive the No. 4 Chevrolet Silverado RST for a select schedule beginning at Rockingham Speedway on April 3. He has made one prior start in the series, finishing 10th in his debut at Richmond Raceway in 2024.

Hall joined Niece Motorsports over the offseason to oversee the team’s newly-formed Late Model Stock Car (LMSC) program, which will be primarily used as a means for driver development. He will also assume the role of crew chief in a handful of LMSC races throughout the year, leading the program in its infancy.

We want to extend our sincere thanks to the employees, fans, and community members who joined us for our first-ever blood drive. Your generosity helped us surpass our donation goal and made a meaningful impact for those in need.

This event was part of our tribute to the legacy of Greg Biffle, whose life was defined not only by success on the track, but by a deep commitment to helping others and serving his community.

Thank you for helping make the first one such a success. We’re grateful for each of you who showed up to make a difference.

This month's employee spotlight shines on Price Alphin, who serves as the Race Engineer for the No. 45 J.F. Electric team for drivers Landen Lewis, Ross Chastain, and Ricky Stenhouse Jr.

Price joined Niece Motorsports in 2024 after a spending brief stint as the Race Engineer for another team. Before NASCAR, he worked as a mechanic on a local late model team owned by Alan Woodard.

Growing up in Apex, NC, Price fell in love with racing thanks to his father, Fred, who worked on Late Models and Trans-Am cars. In 2019, Price moved to Charlotte to pursue his Mechanical Engineering degree at the University of North Carolina at Charlotte. At UNCC, Price received his bachelor's degree in 2023, before earning his master's degree last year.

During his time in college, Price joined the UNCC hockey team as a defenseman. He is a massive sports fan and actively supports the Carolina Hurricanes, Carolina Panthers, and NC State Wolfpack.
