NEW 4:00pm Start Time Sunday, September 1st, Labor Day Weekend Camping Begins Friday

Barre, VT — Thunder Road and American-Canadian Tour (ACT) officials announced today a small change in schedule for the 46th Labor Day Classic 200 program presented by NEFCU/VSECU on Sunday, September 1. The annual 200 lap affair will continue to be held on Sunday, September 1 but will move to an evening special with an afternoon Post Time of 4:00pm.  

The annual Labor Day weekend special has annually been held with a 1:30pm post time but Thunder Road and ACT officials have cited several reasons for the move. “Moving to 4:00pm will hopefully eliminate the need for teams to find a place to stay overnight Saturday and still get home at a decent hour Sunday night,” said Thunder Road and ACT managing partner Cris Michaud. “The side-by-side racing on Thursday nights has been fantastic this season and ACT under the lights at Thunder Road is sure to be a great show!”

Labor Day weekend camping will open at the Thunder Road grounds on Friday, August 30 at noontime and all campers must be off Thunder Road property by noontime on Monday, September 2. Dry camping is available for $40 per unit, tent camping is not allowed and Officials ask that campers not line Fisher Road or Patch Road in respect of our neighbors.

Thunder Road is back for the final Thursday of the 2024 season with Jet Service Envelope/Accura Printing night on August 29 headlined by the annual Run-What-U-Brung spectator drags! Thursday, August 29 will feature all four Thunder Road divisions with a 7:00pm Post Time with a quick turnaround to Sunday, September 1 for the NEFCU/VSECU Labor Day Classic 200. The American-Canadian Tour returns to Thunder Road for the 46th Labor Day Classic presented by NEFCU/VSECU with a special addition of the New England Pro-4 Modifieds plus the Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel Flying Tigers, rk Miles Street Stocks and Burnett Scrap Metals Road Warriors with a special 4:00pm Post Time!
