Read More2021 SEASON PASS & GIFT CARD UPDATE
Hello all.
We have already heard from many people asking about when Thunder Road season passes will be available for 2021. After much discussion, we have decided to hold off on selling season passes – at least for now. This is because, at this point, we simply don’t know what will be allowed for fan attendance at events next year. A lot can change over the next several months for better or worse, and we don’t think it’s fair to anybody to start selling passes with the picture still being so murky.
We will continue to monitor the situation as we get closer to the scheduled mid-May opener. If circumstances are looking more favorable come spring, we’ll certainly see about making season passes available. Please keep an eye on our website and social media pages for further updates.
If you are still looking for a racing-related holiday present this year, Thunder Road has gift cards for sale. These can be purchased in any dollar amount and used towards event tickets, track concessions, and even towards a season’s pass if we ultimately are able to offer them. And they never expire! If you are interested in ordering a gift card, please call the Thunder Road office at (802) 244-6963 ext. 2 and leave a message with your name and contact information.
In the meantime, please be healthy and safe. The more people commit to staying healthy and safe over the winter, the better off all race tracks will be when spring arrives. We hope to see all of you next May.
Barre, VT – The schedule for the 2021 season at Barre’s Thunder Road is now set. Track officials have unveiled a 19-event campaign from mid-May to early-October with all the events that competitors and fans have come to love.
The 62nd season atop Quarry Hill begins Saturday, May 15 and Sunday, May 16.

Read MoreHello all,
We hope everyone reading this is doing well. Even three weeks after the conclusion of Vermont Milk Bowl Weekend, it seems hard to believe the 2020 racing season is over. Perhaps it’s because of the late start to the year, but it feels like the summer and early fall flew by.
That there was even a season at all is a testament to those who supported us week in and week out. The effects of the COVID-19 pandemic went beyond not being able to run our first event until mid-June. The fact that so many people stuck with us during such challenging and ever-evolving times is why we were able to get in as much of the season as we did.
