Thursday marks the 20th anniversary of the closing of Catamount Stadium in Milton, VT. The “Grand Old Lady” was the sister speedway in Vermont to Barre’s Thunder Road, and was the site of many major events – not just the stock car races themselves, but also moments that were either immediately profound or happenings that, over time, became much larger and hugely effective (or affective, depending on how you look things).

Quebec dairy farmer Jean-Paul Cabana won the first main event held at the high-banked, 1/3-mile oval, driving a sportsman coupe on June 11, 1965. The victory paid about $200. Cabana also won the final main event(*) on September 27, 1987, the American-Canadian Tour’s New England 300.
