Default New England F-Body Track Meet - NED

What: Test & Tune
When: Saturday Sept 27th, gates open 8am
Where: New England Dragway

so i figure this will be a good time to go up and get nice runs, weather should be cool, and the season is coming to a hault. I started this as an NEFBODY meet and it appears only a few members can make it, so i decided to make it a little more interesting.

I invited blackout racing (mustang club) who has said they should be stopping in from their cruise, so dont miss your chance to come up and stomp on some fords. lol

Hope to see more of you guys there, i know our last few meets people havnt been able to come.

Count me in, I'll be there.

I want to get there earlier than noon though, anyone know what time the track opens?

I'm thinking I'll leave around 6 to get there for 8.

usually $30 to run sat, track prep is usually better then at night.... (track is obvi hotter) gates usually open at 7:30 or 8am.. i suggest getting there prior to that or right around there... there is usually a line of trailors to get in....

Make sure there is still a test and tune on the 27th, i think it is cancelled because the Mopar race got rained out. Also, the gates usually open at 8am, racing starts at 9am. It is 30 bucks to race, track prep is way better then on any street night you will ever go to.

They don't update that all year, here is the latest http://www.nedragway.com/html/home.php?dest=news , they rescheduled our Quickstreet race, so i am betting they got rid of the test and tune that day. Just trying to give you a heads up.
