Also, if you haven't been to Cecil Co since the last Lucas Oil Race in April of 2023, youll notice A LOT and I MEAN A LOT of changes!!! We run there alot with the Mid Atlantic .90 Series and have seen the upgrades, so when you see Jim or Chad say THANKS!!! In today's world where we are constantly hearing of tracks shutting down it's great to see a track do upgrades to enhance the racers experience!

Once again, you'll have TWO weekends back-to-back at Cecil!! The Lucas Race and the big Stock/SS Combo race the following weekend along with .90, Top Dragster, Top Sportsman, Juniors and Gamblers Race!! Leave your rigs at the track to save on gas and towing back and forth....support a series that is run by racers for the racers!

List of all the upgrades since last April

New Lights and Sound system
New Grandstands (Was just a slab at last years LODRS)
Leveled out the sand trap
New Return Road on the right side by scales, should help with Stock / SS backing up when hitting the scales
Portions of the facility were re-lined
Also parts of it were re-sealed to make it look brand new
The side roads by pond and up on the hill have been paved

Plus track was re-done about 3 years ago!

If you are attending this weekend’s LODRS at Cecil County and also planning to run the Mid Atlantic race the following weekend, Jim is allowing us to leave your rigs at the track to save on travel and costs of going back and forth. I actually don't work at Cecil but, trying to give as much info as possible so everyone is on point and knows what is going on.

The Mid Atlantic race (May 18-19) there is no set / reserved parking spots for the weekend but be smart about where you park and no crime scene tape stretching a whole row of cars, or if you know someone has multiple cars don’t squeeze them in so they don’t have room. We are all there to have fun and enjoy ourselves during a fun time at the racetrack and the track is gracious enough to allow us to do so! Gates open at 5pm that Friday the 17th for those of you who want to re-enter, the track is NOT OPEN DURING THE WEEK, SO YOU CANNOT STAY IN BETWEEN THE WEEK. There are a few campgrounds a few miles from the track.

Bar Habor RV Park - 410-679-0880
OMA's Family Campground - 717-529-2020

So be courteous of your neighbors, clean up after yourself (If you need a trash bag, come find me and I'll give you one) and if you need RV clean out by the time the MA race comes around, I will work on getting that set up.

I figured I would share this update from "NHRA Northeast Division" page on Facebook:

Tuesday 5/7/24 - Still no change in schedule. We continue to monitor the weather and understand all the concerns, we (NHRA) have significant investment in these events also with staffing, hotels, travel and other items. There is still no clear answer on Mother Natures plan so we will stay with the original program. Plan for the worst and hope for the best, to many scenarios to make a call this quick.
