Farnham Beats Weather, Mayhem for First Street Stock Victory; Jaques Takes 50-Lapper

Kaiden Fisher Uses Outside Lane to Best Three-Peat King Corliss

Barre, VT — The rk Miles got Sunday’s action started at Thunder Road with their rain-delayed Bolduc Metal Recycling 50-lap special. A face-off between front row starters ‘The Biffer’ Mike Gay and Paige Whittemore saw the pair fun side-by-side through the first ten laps as the field spread into single-file competition prior to the first yellow on lap 14 for Juan ‘Paco’ Marshall’s smack with the backstretch wall. While Whittemore would lead the restart, a pair of mid-pack hard-chargers came knocking on the door in the form of Trevor Jaques and Ryan Foster. With ten laps remaining, Jaques had control of the lead with Foster driving deep in the outside groove attempting to round one of the division’s top aces. The final five laps saw Jaques just barely edge Foster by less than 0.032 seconds at the line with Zach Audet rounding out the podium.

The Burnett Scrap Metals Road Warriors were twenty-nine strong in the Thunder Road pit area with twenty-six holding together to take the green in their 20-lap main event. Chaos struck on lap 7 for the first time with Brayden Murphy, Jennesta Garrett and Neal Foster collected together in turn two. The second half of the event saw Taylor Sayers and Easton Garvey battling it out before calamity after rolling calamity pushed officials to park them pit-side as heavy rains approached.

The Maplefield/Irving Late Models took on the highbanks under the leadership of Phil Scott and Keegan Lamson. Governor Scott would lead from the drop of the green with Lamson back-tracking, allowing Cooper Bouchard and Jason Corliss to fall in and chase the all-time wins leader. Corliss began to use the outside lane around Bouchard as the pair grew ever closer to Scott’s rear bumper. Corliss would maintain the outside groove to take the lead on lap 20 just as the first caution flag flew for the spinning Stephen Donahue across the frontstretch. Two more caution periods continued to leave Corliss in command, with point leader Kaiden Fisher all over his rear bumper! The final caution on lap 45 set up a fight to the checkered flags with Fisher getting the bumper-length lead on the restart. The 16-year-old Kaiden Fisher would best three-time champion Jason Corliss with dominance on the outside groove and Marcel Gravel closed out his night in third.

The Street Stocks jumped back on track following qualifying events and the Late Model main for their 25-lap Vermont Lottery trophy dash! 2024 hardluck campaigners Derek Farnham and Scott Weston led the field as ‘The Biffer’ Mike Gay battled with rookies Kylee Potter and Walker Fitch for third. Fitch would run high coming out of turn four and found himself headlong into the widowmaker frontstretch wall, sending the youngster pinballing against the second half of the field and coming to a stop on his roof just past the start/finish line. Following a lengthy clean-up Derek Farnham kept it lean and green en-route to his first career victory in the four-cylinder division followed by Scott Weston and Mike Gay at the line.

Rains moved in during the Street Stock victory lane and with continued lightning heading into the area officials opted to end the Vermont Lottery program prematurely. As such, the Myers Container Service Triple Crown Round #2 will take place at the start of Thursday’s Vermont Tire & Service program as the Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel Flying Tigers take on double features.

Thunder Road is back in action this Thursday, August 15 for Vermont Tire & Service Night at The Road! The four division card will be battling for the second FloRacing Double Purse of the summer season at the Nation’s Site of Excitement plus big family excitement with the Kids Poster Contest and all Vermont Black Bears Hockey Players in uniform receive FREE ADMISSION! Post Time is set for 7:00pm on Thursday, August 15 before the Thunder Road faithful return once again next Sunday, August 18 for the rescheduled Community College of Vermont Night with a 5:00pm Sunday post time.
