East Thetford, Vermont’s Brandon Gray has planted himself as the dominant figure in the Fisher Auto Parts Flying Tigers this summer, coming off his ninth-straight win in the division last Saturday night. Gray will be looking to sweep the Central Asphalt Paving Triple Crown on Saturday, after having taken the other two extra-distance affairs already held this season. Among his top competition, you can count on Logan Powers, Sam Caron, Shane Sicard, Brendan Moodie and Cam Gadue to give Gray another run for his money this Saturday.

The NELCAR Legends and Bandoleros return to White Mountain for their lone visit in 2024 after rains washed out their planned June visit. The popular NELCAR Tour is currently in the hands of Maine’s Cole Robie after eight touring events so far this year while young Bryson Robidoux is in command of the Bandoleros. Both of these divisions race in both weekly track championship action and touring series competition across North America and many of the New England-based teams put White Mountain Motorsports Park high on the list of anticipated visits each summer!
After mechanical woes took Quinny Welch out of contention last Saturday, Waterbury Center, Vermont’s Tanner Woodard has taken command in the Foley Oil & Propane Late Model ranking. Woodard has only one win to his credit so far this season in the non-point Milton CAT 250 qualifier held in July but looks to change that statistic this Saturday! Welch is also searching for his first win of the season following what is sure to be a busy week in the shop, with competition once again expected to be some of the toughest in the Granite State.

Rookie Landyn O’Donnell nabbed his first-career Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank Strictly Stock Mini win last time out in the popular four-cylinder division and is certain to dig deep on Saturday to make it back-to-back trips to victory lane! The Ammonoosuc Asphalt Mini Late Models also return with Nick Anderson firmly in the point lead after his win on Saturday broke his tie on the tally board with Matt LeBlanc. First Jeff Ainsworth and now Chad Dufour both ended Andy Hill’s wins-sweep on the Wayne’s Market Dwarf Cars. Hill has some hefty repairs to finish on his #8 machine to maintain his division point lead for their return on Saturday.
Thunder in the Mountains returns this Saturday, August 17 for the final championship round in the Central Asphalt Paving Flying Tiger Triple Crown! The NELCAR Legends Tour and Bandoleros return to the White Mountain highbanks with continued track championship action for the Foley Oil & Propane Late Models, Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank Strictly Minis, Ammonoosuc Asphalt Mini Late Models and Wayne’s Market Dwarf Cars with a 6:00pm Post Time!
