N. Woodstock, NH — White Mountain Motorsports Park officials have been excitedly receiving a growing amount of Fisher Auto Parts Flying Tiger license applications at the American-Canadian Tour offices in Barre, Vermont. A strong contingent of both new and continued supporters look to continue the recent growth of the iconic division at New Hampshire’s Favorite Short Track in 2024.
It wouldn’t be the Flying Tigers at White Mountain Motorsports Park without the Potter and Sicard families joining the fray. After a year off, former track champion Shane Sicard is back in action, alongside brother Jody and nephew Austin Sicard who is poised to move up from the Kid’s Division to join the ‘#1 Support Division in North America.’ Meanwhile, ‘Uncle’ Mike, Chandler and Matt Potter have also stated their intent to run the White Mountain highbanks in both full and part-time capacities in 2024.
2023 champion Brandon Gray is also set to return and defend his dominant title from one year ago while Rookie of the Year Luke Peters and fellow 2023 freshman Nate Hamblett and Jim Paquette are also set to return. Belmont’s Frankie Sweeney and East Montpelier, Vermont’s Joey Laquerre are also set for full-time competition while Stephen Donahue and Mike Clark are looking to run the Central Asphalt Paving Triple Crown and the ACT Tri-State Series.
