Class at New England

Thought it is for stock, but the schedule posted today shows Super Stock class runs. Did I miss something or is it an error ?

It should be stock, Super Stock had class last year at Epping, I'd think a clarification will be coming

I questioned Dave Mohn at Atco earlier this year and was told they NEVER printed the schedule that way - my answer to him was I may be old and feeble but I can still read ! ! ! Thanks Eric - I looked for this but couldn't find it .

They fixed it

Charlie Yannetti · 06-01-2023, 07:55 AM

One would think that with the low car counts, and low quotas, they would have plenty of time for class eliminations in both Stock and SS.. BUT, that's just me..

I get a kick out of running class. Most do not want to go to fast so to me it means very little. We have been given so many enhancements its not that hard to run 1 under the index... And your reward... more horsepower..
