Jack,

Consider using E-Town as a starting point. Mapquest says 5 3/4 hours to Epping. Depending which road you take to Columbus it's 8 3/4 to 9 1/2 hours. Givin that a majority of the Mid Atlantic racers are 2 hours or less from E-Town that makes the trip anywhere from 3 3/4 hours for some to 7 3/4 hours for others. It's still shorter to Epping. And you get the beautiful New England scenery, beaches and Lobstah.

Sam
P.S.
There is even a rumor that the Brew Crew is going to make an appearance.

Vic,

We got the rain today rest of the week they calling for dry and hot.

Thursday and Friday at Epping approaching 100 degrees and very humid (dew point in the 70s)!

Sam Murray · 07-18-2011, 05:24 PM

Cooler than Columbus for sure!

Been there 3 times from Md.when it was IHRA. Its NOT a fun ride. Going to Columbus sounds like a better option to me and less driving time.

I know you were asking Division 1 guys, but we would have to go thru Columbus (463 miles) to get to Epping (1250 miles). So we will be "Live" from Columbus!
