Dragon sweeps Governor's Cup, Squier Cup
BARRE, Vt. (WCAX) - Scott Dragon laid claim to the inaugural Squier Cup Late Model Triple Crown Thursday night at Thunder Road, taking the 45th Vermont Governor’s Cup and using a late caution to separate himself from series points leader Jimmy Hebert over the final 50 laps. With NASCAR Xfinity Series champion Cole Custer at the high banks in a makeup from late June’s washed out event, Dragon went about chipping away at Hebert’s right-point lead. Dragon started on the pole in the 150-lap feature, his first priority to claim his second straight Governor’s Cup and the fourth of his career. Dragon would end up leading from start to finish, but Hebert was right on his tail for about 90 laps, knowing a second place finish would be enough to secure the Squier Cup. However, the lone caution flag of the race came out on lap 93, and with the leaders coming back to the pack, Hebert lost his grip on second. Nick Sweet flew into second place and rode Dragon’s bumper for the next 60 laps, but the #40 car was unable to find a seam to leap past #0. Jason Corliss also passed Hebert, creating just enough of a gap for Dragon to edge Hebert by three points and claim the inaugural Squier Cup.
