Barre, VT — The Lenny’s Shoe & Apparel Flying Tigers got the show started on Thursday with their rain-delayed second round of the Myers Container Service Triple Crown. The extra-distance affair began as front-row starters Cameron Ouellette and Brendan Moodie battled hard in the opening circuits, Moodie taking the early lead. Two-by-two three rows deep behind them saw a spirited battle between a six-pack of heavy hitters, riding it out in the early stages and waiting for the perfect opportunity to pounce. Triple Crown point leader Sam Caron would bite the dust on lap 23 with a broken right-front suspension component sending him into the turn one wall with Adam Maynard and Matt Ballard piling in. After leading from the restart, Brendan Moodie would dominate his way to Myers Container Service victory lane with Jason Pelkey in second and Logan Power just barely edging Cameron Ouellette at the line for third.
