BARRE, Vt. — Justin Prescott nabbed his first career Maplefield/Irving Late Model victory in front of a packed Fourth of July crowd at Thunder Road Int’l Speedbowl.
After mechanical woes continued for outside polesitter Chris Roberts, Cooper Bouchard and Kyle Pembroke brought the Maplefield/Irving Oil Late Model field to the line.
After the Bouchard/Pembroke battle lost steam, Prescott and multi-time track champion Nick Sweet made the jump to the top spot before Sweet’s flat right-front ended his bid for the lead.
Prescott led on the restart and never looked back, powering all the way through to victory with Chip Grenier and Cooper Bouchard rounding out the podium.
Kyle Streeter claimed the Flying Tiger feature and Josh Lovely took the street stock event. Benjamin Bushey topped the road warrior field.
