Another Recurring Rumor Shot To Hell
The recurring "Epping to go NHRA" rumor can be put to rest for a few more years:

NHRA needs a new facility closer to Boston instead.Then, they need one outside of Charlotte NC, one in south Florida, and a new one in the LA area. It would be nice wouldn't it!

The chance of a new strip around here (New England) went down the toilet a few months back when Plainfield rejected what they OKed @ the old dog track.

YES! Not that Bristol, Atlanta, and Virginia are that far, but it would be nice to have one here too.

I was told Via an email from someone well connected to Epping, that NHRA determined that WAYY To much upgrading was needed before NHRA would even consider it. Too bad, great location and Great Air.

Epping is one of my favorite tracks to go to and I am glad it is staying IHRA. Always great runs at that track. Can't wait to go this year.
