The 25th Annual M&M Beverage Enduro 250 on August 2 will be $5,000 to win in celebration of the 50th Anniversary Season at Thunder Road International Speedbowl. This is a $3,000 increase over last year’s grand prize for The People’s Race. The Enduro is a no-holds-barred race where over 100 novice drivers race virtually street-legal automobiles for 250 laps.

Last year current Allen Lumber Street Stock competitor, Troy Gray of Fairlee earned a soggy $2,000 check after winning the 24th Annual M&M Beverage Enduro 200, a survival-of-the-fittest stock car race that featured a half-hour rain storm and two rollovers.
