new England drag way national meet
Really?? WOW! e town has gottin used to it! epping is its first NHRA national event , give them a brake ,dude . " I thought it was great for there first time!!
Yes, Really,...It was good, but not great for a spectator,...Don't get me wrong about the racing, That was awesome,...Especially since I go to see the little guys like yerself and yer crew,...It was 5 hrs in (the trip was 2 1/2 hrs) 4 1/2 hours at the track and 4 1/2 hours to get out and home. On my worst trip to Jersey It was 3 hrs down, 8 hours at the track and 4 hrs home, (but I've traveled thru and around NYC for years).
I just feel that If your going to host a National event, ya better be ALOT better prepared, A 2 hour waiting time within a mile of the track on a qualifying Saturday is unacceptable. Not to mention a 40 minute wait (each way)and not enough shuttle busses for a 10 dollar parking spot a mile away, I was even kinda ok with the 50 dollar entry fee till I couldn't get a seat. I'm just sayin they should have called the nice folks at E-Town for a few pointers about moving large crowds of cars and people and accomodating said crowds. Once one gets a little older, those little things are kinda important.
We're still planning on going next year, but we're thinkin of taking up the 28 footer next year and camping at the Star Speedway just to avoid all the traffic and waiting and maybe have a cold one which was not allowed at the track..
