Danny - Believe me many of the racers here in NHRA Division One are not looking forward to the "Drive up Ninty-Five" next year - - - - - - - - - beautiful country though ....................wish you were keeping your race ! ! !

Geez Jack, we all do the 95 drive south from up here lol.

i'll be there. it's always been my favorite race of the year. ive been attending this race since at least the early 90's always fun. i'll miss the ihra there. but i guess it will be even bigger down the road.

If you do a little planning, you can miss all but the last toll. I've made the trip a couple of times, both from Ohio and from North Carolina. Long ride from *those* states, but otherwise I see no problem with the trip.

Its just to far north. It gets COLD up there.....LOL.

You Floridians are wimps! Epping is close to the ocean, so it really never gets that cold (cold is when it gets below zero, 0-32 is chilly, 32-50 is brisk, 50-75 is warm, above 75 is hot).

Ive been there twice with IHRA but your right.....Im a wuss as I hate cold weather. My X was from Hamburg Ny and I hated it there when I had to take her home for Christmas. Friggin' snow and ice.

Jack, We regularly have 60 cars at our association races "up north here", I am sure those racers are happy to not need to go "DOWN" 95 for every points race.

Lets see, when I started this sport the points races were.

Cayuga 450 miles for me
maple Grove 300
Englishtown 200
Epping 120
MIR 300+
We did go to atco maybe once way back, then didn't they switch to IHRA for a long time ?

That schedule did a good job of representing D1 geographically

I will be at Epping
