Barre, VT – Two-time Thunder Road Champion Dave Pembroke earned his second Milk Bowl victory this past weekend in the 50th Annual People’s United Bank Milk Bowl, picking up a check worth over $14,000. The victory was well worth the wait for the family-run team.
“I’m psyched,” Pembroke told the media after the race. “No one else can win it. It will be 50 years before they have another anniversary one. It’s pretty cool to me.”

BARRE, Vt. – A broken suspension piece relegated Austin Theriault of Fort Kent, Maine, to a 15th-place finish in the 50th annual People’s United Milk Bowl at Thunder Road International Speedbowl in Barre, Vt., on Sunday, October 28.

After working with interim crew chief Mitch Green, Theriault rallied to finish sixth in the final segment in the final Late Model event of the season in the northeast. (more…)
