Barre, VT – Graniteville’s John Donahue and Montpelier’s Dave Pembroke are tied atop the Thunder Road Late Model point standings with just three point counting events left on the schedule. Donahue is aiming for his first “King of the Road” title, while Pembroke looks for his second.
The two have taken very different paths to the top in 2011. Donahue and his National Guard team started off the season on fire, winning the Memorial Day Classic and following it up just three races later with a win in the Vermont Governor’s Cup. Donahue has been the point leader for the majority of the season and lead by as much as 46 points. He hasn’t been lower than second in the standings all year. (more…)

Waterbury, VT – Beech Ridge Motor Speedway (BRMS) in Scarborough, ME is perhaps the most neutral track the American Canadian Tour (ACT) visits during the season-long touring campaign. There will be no weekly teams that enter the event; by design, it might be compared to Oxford Plains Speedway, but veterans will tell you that is not true; it races as good as any track the Tour visits; and the atmosphere from the staff and management to the fans is first class. The food is also some of the best. (more…)
