Thunder Road Postpones Enduro to August 23
Barre, VT — Thunder Road officials have postponed the 36th Bolduc Metal Recycling Enduro 200 and Street Stock Special to Sunday, August 23 at 6:00pm. The decision was made to avoid a conflict with the NASCAR Cup Series event at Loudon’s New Hampshire Motor Speedway, which was recently moved to August 2 as part of a schedule shuffle due to the COVID-19 outbreak.
The 200-lap, $3,000-to-win “People’s Race” will remain largely unchanged apart from the new date, from the three-wide start to the no-yellow-flags format. The track’s Allen Lumber Street Stocks will once again join the card with a 50-lap main event in their biggest show of the year. The rules and entry forms for the Enduro are now available at www.thunderroadvt.com/rules.
Fan attendance will be limited based on any and all state guidelines in effect at that time. Northeast Sports Network will again be doing a live pay-per-view of the event for those who can’t make it to the speedway.
“We knew going into the start of the season that some postponements and adjustments were possible,” Thunder Road managing partner Cris Michaud said. “With everybody trying to get their full schedule in on a much shorter timeline, some conflicts are inevitable. Fortunately, this was a case where we had an open date to move the Enduro, which will hopefully allow more people to race, attend, and watch.”
The weekly racing season at Thunder Road continues this Thursday, July 9 at 7:00pm. Round one of the Myers Container Triple Crown Series headlines the card with the Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel Flying Tigers going 75 green flag laps. The Maplewood/Irving Oil Late Models, Allen Lumber Street Stocks, and Burnett Scrap Metals Road Warriors join them on the program.
Limited fan attendance is permitted with advance ticket sales only at www.happsnow.com/event/Thunder-Road-Speedbowl. Admission is $15 for adults and $3 for kids ages 6-12. For those who can’t make it to the track, a $15 pay-per-view broadcast will also be available on the Northeast Sports Network at www.NSNsports.net/sponsors/racing.
