New England Dragway Fri 5/19

I am heading up to Epping NH on 5/19 for street night to do a few passes in the M5.

Anyone on the forums in the area want to meet up?

Haha…. I thought I it would be cool to have a few M5 at the track and meet up with other car enthusiasts.

I don’t think there are many folks in Northeast on this forum.

We are here. We are just either stuck in traffic or trying to avoid potholes with our M5s!

I have run there many times but not in the M5. Don’t think I can go tonight but looking forward to reading results. I drive by regularly on the way to the beach and will try to do some runs this year. I like to get there at 5:30 and go through Tech, get some runs in as soon as they start at 6:00 and split before it gets crowded or just spectate. At the end of the season it is less crowded.

I assume you have a Snell 2015 or 2020 helmet. NED follow NHRA and may stop you after your first run under 11.5 or over 135 if you do not. They may also require a fire jacket. And you need long pants and socks and shoes (not flip flops) at any ET/Trap.

I am going next Friday night. Correct I might only get 1 run then need to run 1/8 vs. full rip in the 1/4.

I am actually racing in Loudon next weekend as well. Doing road course with a Lambo and 488 via Extreme Driving Experience.

I have been to Loudon a couple of times over the years but only as a beginner and never in anything fast or exotic. I’d like to retire so I could have time to do a little track driving. I would not be able to get much benefit out of a Lamborghini or Ferrari.
