Epping NH

Anyone making the trip North?

[EL in NH]

 I'm already there... in the north that is...not racing but I would like to take the the trip east to epping for the drags.  I have never been able to figure out NED's schedule for the bike drags.

NHRA and top fuel Harleys will be at NED July 6-8.

Make sure to go early. On NHRA weekend the traffic is horrible getting into the track, the roads just are not able to handle that many vehicles once a year. You can hear them run when your sitting in traffic on 101 but it is no place to watch from. 

[EL in NH]

[spdrcr]

 222 miles an hour .... whew !   Seemed warmer than 80F..very exciting..I have not been to any type of racing since I was a kid. My uncle used to take me to motorcycle hill climbs..He used to run an indian up the hills in the late 40s - early 50s..Before he lost a bunch of fingers ripping logs into boards at te mill.

222 miles per hour? That is seriously screaming down the track.
No wonder Pro Stock doesn't want them at the same events.
