Default Sunday's Ice Racing

Hi gang........I was at the races Sunday which were held on Lee Pond instead of Berry pond for some reason. I always get there nice and early and get a good spot. i was surprised at the turnout...there must have been between 100-150 cars and in some cases, standing room only.
It was a great day, the people are always friendly and it sure is fun to watch.
I would love to do that but those days are gone for now.
I wonder if they have ever thought of a 4wd race with different classes?
That would be cool to watch also!

PS....I thought we were going to get a visit from a NH Nat'l Guard chopper that flew over real low and turned sharply at the end of the pond and headed back the way in came in. Kinda cool!

Also, Rob....I think the races actually still start at 1 or so.....they actually started at about 12:50.

Hopefully I can make it back next Sunday!

I was at the latchkey cup race and had a great time. After seeing the photos, my family wants to see a race. Anyone know when and where the next race is?

Well, I was told Berry Pond. But the warm weather didn’t help.
They made a last minute change to Lee Pond. And we did have a great turn out inspite of the change.

Did you happen to see my Emma (32 car) splash into the outside of turn four. I thought it would shake her. But she nailed first gear and hauled out of the soup, kept going to take the checkered.

From here on the race season is day by day. I won’t know if we are on till late Sat eve. If I can get to a computer I'll post it.
