Barre, VT – Nearly 40 American Canadian Tour Late Model teams were on hand for the full day of practice at Barre's Thunder Road in preparation for the 52nd Annual People's United Bank Milk Bowl on Friday, October 10. Teams were dialing in their cars for tomorrow's (Saturday, October 11) Booth Bros./H.P. Hood Qualifying Day.

Hinesburg's Bobby Therrien ran the quickest lap of the day with a 13.157. Others spending time near the top of the speed charts included defending Milk Bowl Champion Nick Sweet, back-to-back "King of the Road" Derrick O'Donnell, Travis Stearns, Matt White, 2010 Milk Bowl Champion Joey Polewarczyk, Jr., Jason Corliss, Shawn Fleury, 2009 Milk Bowl Champion John Donahue, two-time Milk Bowl Champion Phil Scott, Trampas Demers, Cody Blake, Brad Babb and Eric Badore. 

A strong contingent of Quebec teams was led by last year's polesitter and 2014 Serie ACT Champion Alex Labbe and three-time Milk Bowl Champion Patrick Laperle. Another Milk Bowl Champion in Eric Williams made a surprise appearance and will run this year's Milk Bowl after several years away from Late Model racing. The "Outlaw" Eddie MacDonald was also on hand and will take a shot at the pole in tomorrow's time trial qualifying.

The Booth Bros./H.P. Hood qualifying action will kick off with Late Model time trials at 1:00pm tomorrow (Saturday, October 11). The top three will qualify on time while the rest of the field will have to battle it out in Triple 50 qualifiers during tomorrow's action.
