Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com Nationals
 

Hi gang - What a way to start the year off - maybe many of you were right all these years and I wasn't listening - maybe it does follow me around - you know that wet stuff .After all of those bad days at Maple Grove I thought it was over until a few minutes before we left yesterday afternoon to come here - then I black cloud showed up and just kept coming and coming.

But today is a new deal - Hot and Sunny with temp around ninety - too bad we and everyone else will have to stay here in staging limbo until tomorrow morning .

Back a little later .........

NHRA should have kept Class Runoffs for SS here instead of Maple Grove, 4 days after Indy...

35 SS cars for an East Coast National Event is brutal! But now the program will be done in time for all the sportsman to be able to go to the beach and enjoy great New England cuisine...try The Sea Catch Restaurant in North Hampton. :)

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National

Read the bottom of schedule
We will change schedule without notice.
My $$ on the schedule
Good luck to all.

Sad days!

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Good morning all - Parking has started as promised at 8 am on this drop dead beautiful New England day - sunny with the temp in the mid seventies .Rigs are moving at a very slow pace and it will more than likely be an all day affair .

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

epping parks 1 rig at a time, all day affair

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Extended forecast is rain sometime Sunday.. Hoping its wrong.

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Schedule for Epping shows super street out Friday June 11th? @ 9:15, no live timing or results on Drag Race Central. Is this the correct schedule?

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

It’s only Thursday, but yes that is correct might start a little later though.

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Jimmy, What makes you say this?
The Live timing tab seems to pop up on race day, under the main NHRA page.. above.

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Mark, my bad, after you retire the days and dates run together, I guess what thru me off, amongst other things, was all the early arrivals. Let me think, Friday will be day after tomorrow, right?

Jimmy

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Drag race central has the start time at 10:45? Not sure which one is right but I'll be there at 7am.

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Run Schedule for tomorrow.

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Wonder why it went to a 10:45 start ??

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Hope you enjoy this little event preview. Good luck to all our Stock and Super Stock racers at the Tascaparts.com NHRA New England Nationals!

Bobby, I guess you left the stall door open for a dark horse in B/SA then. ;-)

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

The schedule change shows no third time run for the super classes

Good morning members and guests - Yippee -we finally get on the track today as it seems like I've been here forever and all I've done is long overdue servicing on my RV and trailer and a few items on the racer.

For some reason the powers to be have chosen a 10:45 start time with Super Street out first -followed by Stock - must have something to do with the car count .What this reporter thinks is strange is the 35 entries in Super Stock as there are plenty in this neck of the woods - lack of entries from Canada ? Or are the S/S guys going away ? Or are they just getting old ? Pandemic related ? Or the cost? Hmmmmm……

Today I'm glad to report the Sun is out but still a bit chilly and those of you who voted yes to the poll about it being a fast race might very well be right as we now have a barometer close to 30 with low humidity and by the time we go out the temp will be close to seventy so ……...later.

PS- for those of you wondering I got my annual 'lobsta' fix last night with my decades long friend Bill Shurla along with my main squeeze Maryann at Markey's in Seabrook .

@ 1000' Jim is .057 ahead

The race went "mineshaft" so the only runs that would count would be -1.20 under, 9.800 or quicker for A/SA

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Looks like it’s going to be a beautiful day in Epping. The overnight showers have clear out, sunny in the mid 70’s. Should be fast if the barometer holds up.

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Stock Final, AA/SA Heads up!
John Shaul vs. John Gray
Congrats to both teams!

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

Super Stock Final
Justin Piccolo vs Joe Santangelo
congratulazioni a entrambe le squadre!!

Re: Live from New England Dragway - Tasca Parts.com National
 

That's like a little Dejavous....

Think Dave LeBrun vs Jerry Stein about 40 years ago....

I believe John Gray's car is one of LeBruns old cars....
