The first feature of the night that would be out would be the Be Cool Heating and Air Condition Small Black Modifieds and it would see 14 cars take the green for the 30 lap event. Jordan Fornwalt would get the lead at the start of the race but it would be short-lived as Tim Fuller would get by and take the lead in lap two and then the race would be on between him and Mike Mahaney as they would take off from the rest of the field and have there own battle up front. The battle up front would go on till there were about 5 laps left in the when Mahaney would use the lap traffic to his advantage and take the lead and get his first win of the season at the Airborne Park Speedway and expand his point lead over Tim Fuller with only three races to go. Then we would have the JS Steel Sportsman Modified with 24 cars going after the win-the-30-lap affair. The race would start with Beau Reeves and Matt LaValley on the front row and the early leader of the race would be Dylan Rabtoy from his 4th place start. There would be a storm brewing in the middle of the pack though as Heywood, Scarbrough, and Bruno would all be on their way up. The battle up front would intensify for a few laps between Heywood and Rabtoy until Heywood would get around for the lead. Then in the closing laps, it would be classic Airborne rivalry at the front and they would put a show on between Heywood and Bruno but in the end Heywood would hold on for the win and his third of the season. Then we would have the 9th State Cannabis Renegades for their 20-lap event and would see Richie Turner getting the early lead of the race. Shawn Duquette and Tylor Terry sitting 1 and 2 in the points race come up from rows 3 and 4 batting for the lead.

This would not be just another Thursday Night Thunder as this would be Hulbert Supply's Night and the $1,500 to Vermont 200 Qualifier with the winner getting a starting spot for the $12,500 to win next weekend at Devils Bowl Speedwy. There would be three divisions in action on the evening the J+S Steel Sportsman Modified, 9th State Cannabias Renegades, and the Moore Recycling Mini Stocks. After the heat races and the one Last Chance Qualifier that was needed, it would be time for the J+S Steel Sportsman Modified to take to the track for their 50-lap $ 1,500-to-win event. The race would take a bit to get going including a rollover by Jonathan Toohill that would bring out the red flag on lap two. The early leader would be Mike Wright ass he would start on the pole and would hold the lead for most of the night but he would have an early challenge from Chris Cayea. Then the 61L of Donovan Lussier would charge up from his 8th place start and take the lead in the closing laps. Although he would have a late race challenge from Joey Scarbrough who would have to charge from 17th helped by the longer distance race he would come up just one spot short and finishing out the top three would be Travis Bruno. So with his win tonight, Donovan Lussier joins Nick Heywood and Zack Sobotka as starters in the Vermont 200. There is one more granurated starting spot available for the 200 this weekend at the Devils Bowl Speedway with the winner of the Charlie LaDuc memorial. Then it would be time for the 9th State Cannabis Renegades and their 25-lap race and the battle up front would be between a couple of fan favorites as it would be a showdown between Tylor Terry and Richie Turner. Turner would be the leader for most of the race but with a couple of laps to go Terry would take the lead in turn 1 Turner would come back charging down the backstretch and dive bomb the corner and push up and put both of them in the turn four wall. Inheriting the lead and the win would be Josh Terry who would edge out Nathaniel Guay and Bill Thwaits would round out the top three.

It would be the north stop on the River Valley Builders North Tour for the Short Track Super Series their 18th overall for the series and their first-ever stop to the Mohawk International Raceway they would bring 33 of the best-modified drivers along with Sportsman Modified and the Pro Stock. The Modifieds would need a Last Chance Qualifier to decide who would get the last seven spots in the field of 27 for the 50-lap event. When the main event started the odds on favorite to win on the night would be Stewart Friesen after all he was the fastest in time trials and won his heat race easily. When the race was underway it would be Friesen and David Hebert on the front row and Friesen would zoom out to the lead there would be a couple of early cautions before lap 20 and on the second one Hebert would get around Friesen for the lead but the lead would only last a few laps and Friesen would take the lead back. But there would be a rumbling from the middle of the pack as Matt Sheppard who started 13th would keep picking them off as he rolled to the front of the pack and with ten laps to go he would have Friesen in his sights and the classic rivalry would be at it again on the broader tonight. With three laps to go Sheppard came off of turn two and almost runner his night on the backstretch wall and lost a second Friesen but he hugged the bottom for the next two laps and would get Friesen at the line by about a car length for the win. Chris Raabe would round out the top three as he came from sixth place on the final lap. Then we would have 35 laps for the Pro Stockers with $1,000 going to the winner. The race would start with Ian Bresset and Zack Daniels on the front row and the early leader would be Bressett there would be a battle up front through the early stages of the race between Bressett, Burton Ward, and Denis Gauvreau but in the end, the winner would be Dakota Sharp that came up from the ninth spot to get his second win of the season over Bressett and Gauvreau.
