Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Well, not quite. Getting ready to hit the road in a few minutes. There are a few racers there already, that arrived yesterday:
https://scontent-b-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/...44728743_n.jpg Bob and Penny Bender, Vic Guilmino and Nick Reiter are there. I hope to arrive a the track early afternoon to walk around and check things out. I have my laptop to check-in, in the evenings and, time permitting, update some things via my phone during the day, though I likely won't have a lot of time for that. See you there! |
Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Travel safe, Mike! I'll be rolling in sometime around 0-dark-thirty Saturday Morning. Really looking forward to this race and seeing everyone before the season ends! "Circle The Wagon's 2013"!

Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
At the risk of sounding like a complete cheapskate broke racer, the Days inn Hagerstown is only 41 dollars on Saturday night, 51 dollars after taxes. On Priceline.com - express purchase - Hagerstown - two star

Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Bobby, we're not called "cheapskates" any more - we're considered "frugal"! It sounds better! :D
Be safe on the way in!! |
Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
At the hotel and checked in. Super 8 said they are receiving a lot of calls, so be sure to call soon if you plan on staying here. Or as Bobby said, there are probably equal or better deals online.
And yes, call or e-mail the track to see what fuel they have, and how much of it they have left and price. dragway1@aol.com Track Hot Line 24 Hours: 1-301-791-5193 |
Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Beautiful weather for Maryland in November.
https://scontent-a-iad.xx.fbcdn.net/...17920295_n.jpg For what it's worth, gas is in the $3.30's here at most stations around exits 29 and 32 (Exit 32 is the one for the track on I-70, US 40 east to track). |

FWIW..
Refereed Soccer Games at the Germantown SoccerPlex at 32 Degrees F and it was Windy. Layered and with gloves that would not keep the hands warm. After Halloween last night a huge fierce storm came through. Tonight have 3 games in much warmer weather... Tomorrow more good weather. Mother Nature cleared the air should be beautiful. Dan |
Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Good morning. It is a clear, cool morning here, just leaned my head out the hotel window. Off to breakfast, then out to the track. See you there, for those who are there or on their way.

Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Back at the hotel. Great weekend for sure. Chris Kilraine won the big money today over Danny Henderson. Semi's were Tom Losket and Brad Huntzberry. Chris and Dan EACH took home more money than the cash purse pays to the WINNER at the NHRA U.S. Nationals at Indy. Sixty-four cars on the grounds today, fifty-seven made first round. Thanks to EVERYONE for an awesome weekend. I think we equaled the all-time record car count of 72 total S/SS cars for the weekend that was set two years ago (and only five were Nostalgia/SS). We look forward to next years Association races (and Elmer has said we'll return next year to Hagerstown for my twentieth straight year doing this event.
Thank you again to everyone who came out this weekend, for one or both days. We'll do it again at H-town next year (along with our races at Quaker City and Pittsburgh). |

Anyone within a 3 or 4 hr. tow of Hagerstown should of have been at this race.The weather was great, and we had a fantastic time as always....although Holgar,Kathy and Charlie kept us up to 1:30 am on Sat.(Martinis were involved) The track personnel were all great and the starting line was second to none. All the colorful(?) people were there...Lew Silverman, Billy Nees, Dan Fahey, Chuck Weber and his crew, just to name a few. Thanks again to Mike Carr and his family for making the effort to make this race happen...Good Job Guys.
Thanks again.......Terry and Barbara |

Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Another one in the books!
Thank you, Mike, for all your hard work every year putting this show together! I'm already planning on being there in 2014! Here's a link to the photo's taken by B&B Photography this weekend, in case you missed him at the track! http://bandbphotos.smugmug.com/NOVEMBER-2013/i-W87TnVW I hope everyone has a safe "off-season"! See you next time! |
Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Can someone post a final qualifying for Stock/Super Stock?
|
Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
Jim, we don't have qualifying in our Association races, since 2 of the 3 tracks we race at do not have scales, none have fuel check equipment or qualified tech officials. Since 1996, I have done over sixty S/SS races at ten tracks in four states. Only three of the tracks have had scales, none have any of the other stuff needed to have true qualifying.
I will have full round-by-round results from each day's race posted sometime soon today. |
Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
We had seventy-one total cars for the weekend. Just missing the record we set in 2011 (72). Sixty-four on the property for Sunday alone, and 57 raced, also just below the record of a Sunday turnout (66 showed, 63 raced also set two years ago).

Both drivers took home more money than the cash purse to the winner of Indy. Thanks to all who came out, I tried to get around to see everyone during the weekend and still missed a few. We'll do it again next year the first weekend in November at Hagerstown. See you all next year! |

Re: Live from Hagerstown Maryland S/SS races
We would like to thank Mike etal for putting on a great show and the staff at MD Dragway for giving us one hell of a racing surface. We had a great time. Terry, If memory serves you came to our MH with drinks so I do not think we were holding you captive or anything like that. If anything you kept us up til 1:30! Holgar & Kathy
