We're down the road but I got a call - a few finals ( including Stock and s/s )left to do but it got dewy and they will be run at a later date -probably Maple Grove .Stock- Sickles and Bednaz - S/S -Gay and L. Morehead .

So after being hot and sticky for a few days its great to be on the way home - even with a hurricane coming .

Re: Live from Epping,NH - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

The live timing seems to have stopped for stk and ss at rd 5. But the live timing has a list of winners which makes it appear that they finished ?????? Someone who is there will chime in here and give us the facts. What Jack said sounds correct until you look at the list of winners ,,,

Re: Live from Epping,NH - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

Jack has it correct on S/SS finals.

Re: Live from Epping,NH - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

Just got off the phone with Greg Gay. His final with Lincoln Morehead was called off due to moisture on the track and will be run on Thursday of the Keystones. Morehead's final is all the more impressive as he showed up after Friday qualifying and was put at the bottom of the ladder. Congrats to Eddie Chin for his semi-final showing in SS.

Stock final to be run at either VMP or Cecil. Congrats to Tim and Todd for making the finals.

Re: Live from Epping,NH - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

Why would they put finals in two different locations?

Re: Live from Epping,NH - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

Bob - It depended on when the next time would be that the two finalists would be at the same race.

Re: Live from Epping,NH - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

Congratulations to the finalist, the racing conditions were nothing short of brutal, very warm and humidity like I’ve never seen. A tip of the hat to the D1 staff and New England Dragway track crew, they worked their butts off scraping nearly the entire track on Friday and getting us all two shots and nearly finishing the event so everybody could get out of there. I wouldn’t be able to stand out there all day long working the starting line in those conditions. It was a fun fast paced weekend, the two day format worked out well with the low turnout.

Re: Live from Epping,NH - NHRA Lucas Oil Series
 

One thing that impressed me was the amount of spectators that were there. There was a more than normal amount of Friday, but Saturday was very full. There were families walking around the pits, the stands were full, and the spectator parking lot seemed to me at full capacity. They had a 50/50 with half the proceeds going the a police k9 foundation which went off with over 2000.00 to the winner.
It would be nice to see this at other tracks for divisionals.

Epping is a great place to race and in my humble opinion always has been.
