Storylines for the Week

  • If you don’t like the weather…. – Mark Twain spoke of waiting minutes for a change in New England weather, but it seems we have be mired in a cold snap with a ton of rain for weeks. It looks like it starts to warm up for us next week as we will be in the 70’s next Friday.
  • Mechanically Inclined – There were a number of mechanical issues, especially in the R.E. Hinkley Super Streets last week. Will those now subside as they negated a number of strong runs.
  • Limited Motion – There were only 8 Limiteds in attendance on Opening Night. There are more on the way and the class will likely field double digits very soon weekly.
  • King me! – The Checkered Review will be posted tomorrow morning with a couple of modifications from last week.

Little League Night is next Friday, May 19. All little leaguers playing both baseball and softball who dress in full uniform receive free grandstand admission. Bring your teams and parents along for a fun night at the track. The North East Mini Stock Tour will try again after being rescheduled from May 5. Over 30 cars are expected to qualify. The R.E. Hinkley Super Streets, Pepsi Limited Sportsman, and T-Bird Mini-Mart Wildcats are all in action. Spectator Drags will take place during intermission in a “run what you brung” event.
