Barre, VT — Just like the racing teams at Barre’s Thunder Road, the Northeast Sports Network (NSN) is pulling out all the stops for the 58th Vermont Milk Bowl presented by Northfield Savings Bank this Sunday, October 4. NSN has unveiled plans for a five-camera broadcast of Sunday’s event with Multi-Angle Instant Replay sponsored by Wes Ward Auto Repair of St. Johnsbury.

For the Milk Bowl, NSN is expanding beyond their normal two-camera broadcast that has proved popular among fans. Milk Bowl Sunday’s high-end production style will show fans even more of the action in a way they have never seen before. The five cameras will be positioned all around the track for complete coverage of every thrilling pass, incidental fender rub, or heart-stopping accident.

Each camera angle will be able to provide instant replays whether or not that angle provided the live picture.  If there is a crash or important pass and the live camera misses it, one of the other four cameras will almost certainly capture it, letting fans see exactly what happened.

"We are excited to unveil this enhanced level of broadcast to the Thunder Road fans,” NSN Operations Manager Kevin Trask said. “The multi-angle replay has been well received whenever we use it.  Thank you to Wes Ward Auto Repair for sponsoring this feature.  We have enjoyed working with everyone at Thunder Road this year, and we hope the fans enjoy this expanded coverage to end the season!"
