'''Melissa Fifield''' (born August 7, 1992) is an American racing driver and [spokesperson](/source/spokesperson). She primarily races in the [NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour](/source/NASCAR_Whelen_Modified_Tour), driving the No. 01 [Chevrolet](/source/Chevrolet) for her family-owned team. She won NASCAR Whelen Modified tour most popular driver for three consecutive years.
== Racing career ==
Fifield grew up watching races with her family at a young age. She received her first go-kart at eleven years old, and competed in nearby racetracks. She won the [Londonderry](/source/Londonderry%2C_New_Hampshire) Track Championship in her rookie season, and eventually drove in the [World Karting Association](/source/World_Karting_Association), where she ranked fourth in the national standings. She drove in the [Allison Legacy Series](/source/Allison_Legacy_Series) at fourteen years old, racing in the North and South series. She had her first and only Legacy Series win at the [New London-Waterford Speedbowl](/source/Waterford_Speedbowl) in 2011.[{{cite web|last=Fifield|first=Melissa|title=Melissa's Story|url=https://melissafifield.com/|access-date=January 19, 2022}}]
=== NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour ===
[[File:Melissa_Fifield_(30958939662).jpg|left|thumb|Fifield at [Bristol Motor Speedway](/source/Bristol_Motor_Speedway) in 2015]]
==== 2014–present ====
Fifield moved up to the [NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour](/source/NASCAR_Whelen_Modified_Tour) full-time in 2014, racing for her family-owned team.[{{cite web|last=Courchesne|first=Shawn|date=December 11, 2013|title=Melissa Fifield Heading to Whelen Modified Tour Full-Time for 2014 Season|url=https://racedayct.com/2013/12/melissa-fifield-heading-to-whelen-modified-tour-full-time-for-2014-season/|access-date=January 19, 2022|website=Race Day CT}}] She recorded her season best finish of nineteenth at [Thompson Speedway](/source/Thompson_Speedway_Motorsports_Park) and [New Hampshire Motor Speedway](/source/New_Hampshire_Motor_Speedway). She finished 21st in the final point standings and won the Most Popular Driver Award that season.
Throughout her career in the [Whelen Modified Tour](/source/NASCAR_Whelen_Modified_Tour), she would always start each race, with most of them being ended early from mechanical issues. She failed to finish a single race in 2021 through fourteen attempts. Her career-best finish is fifteenth, attained twice; once at [Wall Stadium](/source/Wall_Stadium) in 2019 and once at [Lancaster Motorplex](/source/Lancaster_Motorplex) in 2024. 2023 marked a significant uptick in her performance, finally starting to finish more races than she DNFed. This change led to eighteen top-twenty finishes in two seasons, as compared to her 23 prior top-twenties through nine seasons.
After making 117 consecutive race attempts, she did not enter the [Monadnock Speedway](/source/Monadnock_Speedway) race set for September 21st, 2024. Skipping two races, she raced at [North Wilkesboro Speedway](/source/North_Wilkesboro_Speedway), finishing eighteenth, before again skipping the final race of the season. The reasoning for this was made clear when on October 24th, 2024, Melissa announced that she had been diagnosed with breast cancer.[{{cite web|last=Courchesne|first=Shawn|date=October 24, 2024|title=NASCAR Whelen Modified Tour Driver Melissa Fifield Announces Breast Cancer Diagnosis|url=https://racedayct.com/2024/10/nascar-whelen-modified-tour-driver-melissa-fifield-announces-breast-cancer-diagnosis/|access-date=August 4, 2025|website=Race Day CT}}] Keeping her own health in mind, she decided to take a hiatus from racing. July 13th of 2025 marked her return. She raced in the [SMART Modified Tour](/source/SMART_Modified_Tour) race at [Caraway Speedway](/source/Caraway_Speedway), finishing nineteenth.

Everybody kind of just has the courage to say what they want on the computer, but they'll never say it to your face. People don't have the courage to say something."[{{cite web |last=Courchesne |first=Shawn |date=November 13, 2019 |title=Unmuffled Highlights From Melissa Fifield, Burt Myers and Andrew Molleur |url=https://racedayct.com/2019/11/unmuffled-highlights-from-melissa-fifield-burt-myers-and-andrew-molleur/ |access-date=January 19, 2022 |website=Race Day CT}}]
== Personal life ==

Because of her efforts, she received a commendation from [New Hampshire governor](/source/Governor_of_New_Hampshire) [Chris Sununu](/source/Chris_Sununu) in 2017. Sununu stated that she is "one of the best race car drivers in the world, and one of the top few female race car drivers in the world lives right here in New Hampshire and she doesn't get nearly the recognition she deserves."[{{cite web|last=Green|first=Rick|date=July 19, 2017|title=Several Honored as Governor & Executive Council Hold Meeting at Funspot|url=https://www.funspotnh.com/-Articles/pc-governorscouncil.htm|access-date=January 19, 2022|website=FunspotNH.com}}]

She also worked with the [Children's Hospital at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center](/source/Dartmouth%E2%80%93Hitchcock_Medical_Center) (CHaD), where she would interview high school students about making good decisions in life, and their future goals.[{{cite web |last=Tiongson |first=Rob |date=August 17, 2017 |title=In the Driver's Seat with Melissa Fifield |url=http://thepodiumfinish.net/2017/08/drivers-seat-melissa-fifield/ |access-date=January 19, 2022 |website=The Podium Finish}}]

On February 14, 2022, [Anheuser-Busch brands](/source/Anheuser-Busch_brands) announced the formation of a new program, called the Busch Light Accelerate Her Program, a program that allows female drivers who are 21 years old or older, to get more funding, track time, media exposure, and training for NASCAR. Fifield is one of the recipients for the program.[{{cite web|url=https://nascar.nbcsports.com/2022/02/14/busch-light-makes-10-million-commitment-to-female-drivers-in-nascar/|title=Busch Light makes $10 million commitment to female drivers in NASCAR|last=Long|first=Dustin|website=NBC Sports|date=February 14, 2022}}]
