I heard from a pretty good source that VMP will be making the switch back to NHRA during the winter months and looks for it to be on the D-1 schedule sometime in March or April (Yeah that early). I was also told that Cecil is getting tore up in the winter time and new drainage system with concrete to the 1/8 mile and new payment all the way to the end of the track. So we will have 7 D-1 races next year, not sure about the Opens but, also heard Numidia might come back into the fold for an Open. I too would like to see the Dutch run as a Sportsnational. Remember this is just the grumblings I'm hearing from being at the track and until it's on paper is just a rumor.

What about Epping NH. Heard that they were not getting a national next year,not on the schedule

Bob,

Epping will still be on the D-1 Schedule for next year I heard a National Event will not be added till 2013 maybe 2014. From what I heard the track is great but, the surrounding area's need some work. I know they are doing a new tower I think this winter and adding more seats. I also heard they are going to try to work on the pit and parking areas and NHRA wasn't ready to jump ship on a National Event so soon. I know if Virginia comes back they will be a Divisional Race only, no National Events for a few years.

If Richmond goes NHRA maybe they can resurrect the "Little Guy Nationals", first weekend in November.
