Steven Paul Grissom

(born June 26, 1963) is an American former stock car racing driver. Grissom was the 1993 Busch Series champion and has eleven Busch wins in 185 starts. He turned down a scholarship to play quarterback at the University of Alabama to focus a career on racing.

​

Grissom made his Busch Series debut in 1986 at the Freedlander 200 , in the No. 31 Oldsmobile owned by his father. He started 16th but finished 30th due to engine failure. He ran three more races over the next two years, his best finish being an 11th. In 1988 , he moved into the series full-time. Despite a lack of major sponsorship, Grissom had four top tens and finished 13th in points. In 1989 , he landed funding from Texas Pete Sauces , and moved to twelveth in points.

​

In 1990, Grissom won four races, including two straight, and finished third in points behind Chuck Bown and Jimmy Hensley . During the season, Grissom ran one Winston Cup race for Dick Moroso at the Atlanta Journal 500 , starting 23rd and finishing 24th. A lack of funding kept Grissom from competing for the championship in 1991, as he had one win and slid back to tenth in points. After Channellock and Roddenberry's came on board in 1992, Grissom regained his success of 1990, winning two races. He clinched the Busch Series championship in 1993 for his family-owned team. Grissom won the championship by 253 points over Ricky Craven
