Barre, VT – Following last week’s pre-season tire buy at Barre’s Thunder Road, Officials got a good look at what’s to come this summer at the Nation’s Site of Excitement. Over fifty different drivers attended Monday’s tire buy, making final preparations to their mounts after a long winter’s rest with a dry spring making for a great start on the groundwork for Officials at the track!

Rookies and veterans alike made the Monday afternoon trip to measure and chose the tires that most closely match their notebook from last year. Maplefields/Irving Late Model freshman Trevor Jaques and Kyle Streeter, Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel Flying Tiger first-timers Cam Powers and Brodie Frazier and rk Miles Street Stock rookies Jason Kirby, TJ Haggett, Jaiden Del Toro, Tyler Wheatley and Keegan Tabor were among those leaning on veterans like Tommy ‘Thunder’ Smith, Shawn Fleury, Brian Hoar and Mike Billado, among others, for whatever nuggets of wisdom they could pick up.
