Barre, VT Dave Pembroke of Montpelier, VT takes home the first Late Model stock car weekly event on Ferguson Waterworks Night at Thunder Road International Speedbowl. Pembroke outran runner up finisher Nick Sweet of Barre, VT to capture his second straight feature win at the Barre high-banks of Thunder Road. Pembrokes previous win came at Mekkelsen RV Memorial Day Classic in May. For the first points counting event of the 2009 Thunder Road Late Model season, a draw and +/- system were used. Pembroke used it to his advantage by capturing a +6 in his heat race.
Sweet did all he could to get by Pembroke but had to settle for second. He was followed to the line by Jamie Fisher, Cris Michaud and Jerry Lesage to round out the top 5. John Donahue came home sixth, trailed by Trampas Demers, Tony Andrews, Jean-Paul Cyr and Mike Bailey came home tenth.
Joey Laquerre of East Montpelier, VT took home the win in the NAPA Tiger Sportsman on Ferguson Waterworks Night. He pulled away from runner-up Matt Potter, Shawn Fleury, Brendan Moodie and fifth place finisher Tim Potter. Cody Blake, James Hebert, Mike Ziter, Tony Rossi, and Joel Hodgdon all captured top ten finishes.
2008 Allen Lumber Street Stock Champion Jason Corliss of Danville, VT took home the win in the Allen Lumber Streets and Powershift Junkyard Warriors Main Event. Coming home second was David Whitcomb and third was Super Joe Fecteau. The only two Powershift Junkyard Warriors were Kevin Streeter of Waitsfield taking the win and Ken Christman came home second.
Unbelievably Ferguson Waterworks went off with no waterworks. The rain could be seen all around Thunder Road International Speedbowl but only a few sprinkles were felt at the track.
