N. Woodstock, NH — Officials have been hard at work preparing for the biggest weekend of the summer season at White Mountain Motorsports Park with the 7th annual Milton CAT Midsummer Classic 250 this Saturday, August 3. The American-Canadian Tour makes their first visit of the season to the North Woodstock highbanks to the tune of a $50,000 purse, plus continued track championship action courtesy of the Fisher Auto Parts Flying Tigers and Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank Strictly Stock Minis plus the return of the Dads 4 By Tool & Supply Kid’s Division!
The American-Canadian Tour invades White Mountain for the first of two events this summer with the Milton CAT Midsummer Classic 250. Wall’s Ford Platinum Series and ACT Tour point leader Gabe Brown will make the short haul over the Kancamagus Highway in search of Milton CAT 250 immortality this Saturday. The Center Conway hot-shoe has taken both the Spring Board 100 and the New Hampshire Governor’s Cup at White Mountain this summer and will be looking for his first ACT win of the season on Saturday.
Joining Brown, D.J. Shaw, Derek Gluchacki and a host of touring invaders will be a contingent of White Mountain weekly defenders. Nine-time King of the Mountain Quinny Welch will lead the local White Mountain defenders into the Milton CAT Midsummer Classic 250. Joining Welch is young hot-shoe Tanner Woodard, winner of the Prelude Milton CAT 250 Qualifier on July 14 and second on the track championship leaderboard. Fellow track championship chaser Jaden Perry has also filed his entry while leading Fisher Auto Parts Flying Tiger pilot Brandon Gray is back behind the Nathan Kelly-prepared ride for a run at the biggest Late Model event of the summer at White Mountain!
With Gray pulling double duty on Saturday with the American-Canadian Tour, the other Fisher Auto Parts Flying Tigers are prepared to pounce on the opportunity. Shane Sicard, Luke Peters and Thunder Road invader Logan Powers have been hot-to-trot in recent weeks and will certainly use the opportunity to jump into victory lane.
The Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank Strictly Minis return with Patrick Switser continuing to keep tabs on the rest of the four-cylinder field after his second win of the season last Saturday. The whole division is expected to pull all the punches on Saturday to win before the big Milton CAT Midsummer Classic 250 crowd with Todd Derrington, Jason Goodbout, Jr. and leading rookie Connor Rueda among those looking to nab their first win of the season in style.
After two weeks off, the Dads 4 By Tool & Supply Kid’s Division is back in action this Saturday with a host of youngsters chomping at the bit to get back on the White Mountain highbanks! The growing division has seen a number of first-time winners this year with the possibility of another during Saturday’s big dance!
White Mountain Motorsports Park returns with its biggest event of the summer on Saturday, August 3 for the 7th annual Milton CAT Midsummer Classic 250. The American-Canadian Tour is back at White Mountain for their longest event of the summer, once again expecting to draw over 40 of the best short track stars in New England and Quebec to tackle the Woodstock highbanks for the $10,000 grand prize! Joining the American-Canadian Tour will be the Fisher Auto Parts Flying Tigers, Woodsville Guaranty Savings Bank Strictly Stock Minis and Dads 4 By Tool & Supply Kid’s Division with a special 5:30pm Post Time!
Adult General Admission will be available for $30, kids 12-6 for $10 and children 5 and under free! The Family Four Pack (Two Adults, Two Kids) will also be available for $70.
