Robert Gordon Earns Popular Myers Triple Crown Championship

Barre, VT – It all came down to Cody Chevrolet-Cadillac Night for the Myers Container Service Triple Crown championship 100 lap showdown. Cooper French and Rich Lowrey kept things interesting at the front of the pack throughout the opening laps with Derrick Calkins keeping up the pressure for good measure. Flat tires ruined the night for both Ty Delphia in the beginning of the race and Sam Caron towards the end as Lowrey yo-yoed between the lead and second against French and Calkins.

With twenty-five laps remaining, Calkins made his move to the front and led for the first time as Milton’s Robert Gordon cracked into the top-five underneath Mike MacAskill. A pair of late race restarts threatened the Myers Container title chase before Calkins came down the line to take the Cody Chevrolet-Cadillac 100 over Lowrey and French. By maintaining fifth, Robert Gordon took the overall as the ninth different Myers Container Service Triple Crown champion, perhaps the most popular victory lane of the summer.

The rk Miles Street Stocks kicked off feature racing action on Cody Chevrolet-Cadillac Night with veteran Scott Weston and rookie Tyler Wheatley bringing the field to green. Mechanical failure ended Hayden Morris and Walker Fitch’s days early while Jamie Davis methodically made his way to the front. The lone caution flag flew for youngsters TJ Haggett and Jaiden Del Toro’s synchronized spin into the infield grass with six laps remaining. Back under green flag it was all Jamie Davis to the bitter end, taking his second win in a hard-fought season at The Road with Derek Farnham and point leader Kyler Davis rounding out the top three.

The Maplefields/Irving Oil Late Models put on a spirited battle at the head of the pack all night long. Following a bash-up start with the field spinning in turn four before the green flag waved, Cody Blake and Stephen Donahue fought doorhandle-to-doorhandle through to the lap 31 caution for Brandon Lanphear’s turn one spin. Back under green, Donahue rode the outside lane to finally nab the full lead with ten laps remaining, just as Justin Prescott began breathing down his neck. Time ran out for Prescott as Donahue took the win in emotional tribute to his late grandfather Paul Donahue, an instrumental character in the rebirth of the famed Flying Tiger division at Thunder Road and Catamount Stadium in the 1980s. Blake held on to round out the podium.

The Burnett Scrap Metals Road Warriors rounded out the evening’s program with Brandon Premont becoming the second first time winner in as many weeks in the starter division with equally enthused Brayden Murphy tackling second in his first ever podium finish. Cayden Green repaired his mount to come home third.

The Nation’s Site of Excitement returns to Thursday night racing action with Jet Service Envelope/Accura Printing Night featuring the annual Run-What-U-Brung Spectator Drags on August 28. Along with the annual street-car showdown comes the Maplefields/Irving Late Models, Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel Flying Tigers, rk Miles Street Stocks and Burnett Scrap Metals Road Warriors with a 7:00pm Post Time.
