Donahue\u2019s fifth place finish in the third segment was enough to edge out Brent Dragon by just four points. Dragon went into the third segment as the overall leader after winning the first segment and placing 10th in the second segment. His tenth place finish in the third segment gave him an overall score of 21 points for the three segment event.<\/p>\n<p>Donahue took the green in the final segment trailing Dragon by just one point. The two fought hard through traffic to get to the front but Donahue got into the open air quicker and made it up to fifth and secured the win with a combined score of 17.<\/p>\n<p>Eric Williams finished third overall with 26 points, followed by Joey Polewarczyk, Jr. (28), Brian Hoar (29), Dave Pembroke (31), Jamie Fisher (31), Nick Sweet (31), Joey Laquerre (34), and Chip Grenier (37) rounded out the top ten.<\/p>\n<p>In the Tiger Sportsman division Shawn Fleury of Middlesex took home his second win of the 2009 season at Thunder Road. His previous win was in the Tiger Tri-State Series 100 back in August. Fleury was followed to the line by Jason Corliss, Derrick O\u2019Donnell, Tony Rossi and Bobby Therrien.<\/p>\n<p>Williamstown\u2019s Jimmy Hebert was crowned the 2009 Tiger Sportsman Champion after point leader Pete Ainsworth finished just one position shy of qualifying for the main event. Hebert recovered from an early spin to edged out Tony Rossi for the title.<\/p>\n<p>Tommy Smith of Williamstown took his third win of the season in the Allen Lumber Street Stocks. Mike Martin, Danny Doyle, Gary Bashaw and Marcus Farnham completed the top five.<\/p>\n<p>Gary Mullen of Tunbridge took the Allen Lumber Street Stock title over Mike Martin after Tucker Williams failed to qualify. Mullen secured the championship after finishing ninth in the feature. With that ninth Mullen finished the year with ten top tens in 16 starts.<\/p>\n<p>Cabot\u2019s Ken Christman took the Power Shift Junkyard Warrior feature win over Keith Fortier and Kevin Streeter. Donnie Yates of Montpelier was crowned the Power Shift Junkyard Warrior Champion even though he did not qualify for the feature. He had a big enough lead over Christman going into the feature that he could not be beaten. Yates had an amazing six wins during the 2009 season.<\/p>\n<p>The 47th Annual Chittenden Milk Bowl capped off the 50th Anniversary Season at Thunder Road International Speedbowl. The American Canadian Tour title will be decided next Sunday, October 11 at Oxford Plains Speedway.<\/p>\n<p>47th Annual Chittenden Milk Bowl Results<\/p>\n<p>Sunday, October 4, 2009<\/p>\n<p>Pos      Car #   Driver                          TOTAL<\/p>\n<p>1          26vt     John Donahue             17<\/p>\n<p>2          55vt     Brent Dragon              21<\/p>\n<p>3          7vt       Eric Williams               26<\/p>\n<p>4          97nh    Joey Polewarczyk, Jr.  28<\/p>\n<p>5          37        Brian Hoar                  29<\/p>\n<p>6          44        Dave Pembroke          31<\/p>\n<p>7          18        Jamie Fisher                31<\/p>\n<p>8          88        Nicholas Sweet            31<\/p>\n<p>9          15vt     Joey Laquerre             34<\/p>\n<p>10        9vt       Chip Grenier               37<\/p>\n<p>11        11vt     Jean-Paul Cyr              38<\/p>\n<p>12        14        Phil Scott                     39<\/p>\n<p>13        89        Scott Payea                 40<\/p>\n<p>14        55nh    Brad Leighton             41<\/p>\n<p>15        38vt     Tyler Cahoon               44<\/p>\n<p>16        7me     Glen Luce                    45<\/p>\n<p>17        1          Tony Andrews             45<\/p>\n<p>18        27        Wayne Helliwell Jr.     47<\/p>\n<p>19        73me   Joey Doiron                 47<\/p>\n<p>20        78nh    Quinten Welch            50<\/p>\n<p>21        42vt     Matt White                 59<\/p>\n<p>22        6          Chad Wheeler             62<\/p>\n<p>23        77nh    Mark Hayward                        63<\/p>\n<p>24        32        Mike Olsen                  63<\/p>\n<p>25        40vt     Eric Chase                   63<\/p>\n<p>26        16        Joe Becker                   65<\/p>\n<p>27        41        Pete Potvin, III             66<\/p>\n<p>28        8vt       Rich Lowrey                71<\/p>\n<p>29        00        Mike Bailey                 77<\/p>\n<p>30        25        David Whitcomb         85<\/p>\n<p>NAPA Tiger Sportsman Results<\/p>\n<p>Pos      Car #   Driver<\/p>\n<p>1          31        Shawn Fleury<\/p>\n<p>2          61        Jason Corliss<\/p>\n<p>3          68        Derrick O&#8217;Donnell<\/p>\n<p>4          90        Tony Rossi<\/p>\n<p>5          4          Bobby Therrien<\/p>\n<p>6          89        Ray Stearns<\/p>\n<p>7          94        Brendan Moodie<\/p>\n<p>8          48        Tom Therrien<\/p>\n<p>9          10        Josh Demers<\/p>\n<p>10        18        Lance Allen<\/p>\n<p>11        37        David Finck<\/p>\n<p>12        06        Jeff French<\/p>\n<p>13        58        James Hebert<\/p>\n<p>14        15        Troy Gray<\/p>\n<p>15        99        Cody Blake<\/p>\n<p>16        04        Eric Badore<\/p>\n<p>17        23        Matt Potter<\/p>\n<p>18        19        #Neal Foster<\/p>\n<p>19        2          John Lambert<\/p>\n<p>20        55        Brian Delphia<\/p>\n<p>21        1          Scott Coburn<\/p>\n<p>22        32        #Erik Steel<\/p>\n<p>23        84        Richard LaFond<\/p>\n<p>24        33        Jason Allen<\/p>\n<p>25        16        George May<\/p>\n<p>26        0          Mark Barnier<\/p>\n<p>27        79        Jason Bonnett<\/p>\n<p>28        26        Mike Ziter<\/p>\n<p>Allen Lumber Street Stocks and Power Shift Junkyard Warrior Results<\/p>\n<p>Pos      Car #   Driver<\/p>\n<p>1          22ss     Tommy Smith<\/p>\n<p>2          01ss     Mike Martin<\/p>\n<p>3          51ss     #Danny Doyle<\/p>\n<p>4          92ss     Garry Bashaw<\/p>\n<p>5          13ss     Markus Farnham<\/p>\n<p>6          68ss     Bruce Melendy<\/p>\n<p>7          83ss     Bunker Hodgdon<\/p>\n<p>8          38ss     Greg Adams Jr.<\/p>\n<p>9          29ss     Gary Mullen<\/p>\n<p>10        30ss     Lloyd Blakely<\/p>\n<p>11        34ss     Timmy Campbell<\/p>\n<p>12        77ss     Dave Whitcomb<\/p>\n<p>13        43ss     #Jamie Davis<\/p>\n<p>14        61ss     Jason Corliss<\/p>\n<p>15        42ss     Tyler Therrien<\/p>\n<p>16        73ss     Vern Woodard<\/p>\n<p>17        2ss       David LaFleche<\/p>\n<p>18        24ss     Marvin Johnson<\/p>\n<p>19        6ss       #Daniel Lathrop<\/p>\n<p>20        4jyw     Ken Christman<\/p>\n<p>21        35jyw   Keith Fortier<\/p>\n<p>22        61jyw   Kevin Streeter<\/p>\n<p>23        87jyw   John Prentice<\/p>\n<p>24        88jyw   Thomas Elwood<\/p>\n<p>25        31jyw   Kevin Wheatley<\/p>\n<p>26        06ss     Michael Moore<\/p>\n<p>27        7ss       Martin Ingram<\/p>\n<p>28        09ss     #Amanda Habel<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hebert, Mullen and Yates Crowned 2009 Champions Barre, VT \u2013 Graniteville\u2019s John Donahue won the 47th Annual Chittenden Milk Bowl at Thunder Road International Speedbowl on Sunday, October 4.
