Vermont Has The First Sitting Governor To Win A Stock Car Race
Vermont Has The First Sitting Governor To Win A Stock Car Race-April 2024
2024-02-19 EST 22:11:21

Vermont Governor Phil Scott became the first elected governor to win a professional stock car race after his Late Model win Thursday at Thunder Road in Barre, Vermont, reports . It was his 30th career victory and his first ever as governor.

Scott started the race from pole position and fell behind, but used cautions to his advantage to reclaim the lead by lap 45.

Scott was the all-time wins leader at the track before he became governor. I think we can safely say that Vermont’s governor would beat all of the other ones at the track.

Michael Andretti Wants Everyone To Know The Alfa Deal Didn't Fall Through Over Money
I still can’t believe the Andretti-Sauber F1 deal isn’t going forward. After so many rumors and reports of Michael Andretti flying to Switzerland on a whim and Colton Herta at the United States Grand Prix, it seemed signing the paperwork was merely a formality. As for why it collapsed,...
