"Live from" Epping NH New England Nats

Lots of rain so far. Finding dry places to pit has been a challenge. We're supposed to get 2 hits plus SS class runoffs today but that seems unlikely.

Morning Bob - Tough deal with all the rain you're having .That said there are I'm sure plenty of us that didn't make the the long and expensive ride there only to be shut out by the weather .Hopefully it'll dry out and everyone will get their hits today and enjoy the Lobsta tonight .Good luck to all ............

We are running now. Damp and cool.

The rain turned it into a one qualifier day. Track seemed good, they ran sst then stock , then the Pros. Then back to us sportsman finishing up with Top Sportsman. It started to rain lightly 15 minutes later. Looking forward to a nicer day tomorrow. My guess is stock will be out 1st for round 1 of eliminations

I heard time run tomorrow starting w ss/t. Can’t confirm. They need to update

Just heard the same thing that there'll be a time shot tomorrow morning . Person told me that it was posted on Facebook???

Saturday schedule looks good TT2 or Q2 then E 1, 2, and 3 in order with the pro’s

Mark Howes · 06-04-2022, 08:13 AM

Great schedule. It would have been very easy for NHRA to just carry forward with E1 this morning as originally scheduled.

Stock final - Stickles vs Tremblay, winner Tim Stickles
SS final - Santangelo vs Merryfield, winner Eric Merryfield

Congrats to both winners and RUs!

Sidenote complaint - On Saturday morning, those staying off the property were not allowed direct access to the pits. Everyone (including competitors and crews) had to get in line with the general public and loop around through two parking lots before being allowed into the pits. I heard there were some flared tempers and harsh language. The track should definitely address this.
