Waterbury, VT –Mekkelsen RV from East Montpelier, VT has been supporting Thunder Road for many of the fifty-two years of the track’s history. The 49th edition of the Memorial Day Classic will host a 100-lap Thunder Road ACT Late Model event and a 100-lap opening event on the 2011 Bond/WIX Tiger Tour.
“This should be one of the most exciting Memorial Day Classics for fans and competitors in years. My guess is that the competition in 2011 among the Late Models is going to be the best we have seen in recent memory, and the addition of the Bond Tigers, which many of us graduated from, certainly adds another dimension to this traditional holiday weekend,” said three-time Thunder Road Champion Cris Michaud from Northfield, VT.
