Great racing last night in NH

I drove up north a bit last night to race with friends at Deer Meadow Race Park..
You might remember a forum member 'amiatanut' selling some stuff last December.. It's his track.

It's a big landscaped routed 4 laner with elevation changes and squeezes.. a real drivers track.

10 of us took to the track after steamed hot dogs for supper, and we raced 2 heats each in 3 divisions.
Classic NC-1 type powered cars, mid level performers (Scaly/Fly) sidewinders, and LeMans Classics.
It was a great night of racing, laughter and banter..

Here's Marc's track:

and a few short videos that show the track at speed and slo motion.. all short clips~

That last clip rendered the speed a little too fast.. but you do get a feeling from the first clip how fast
non mag racing can be..I'm so glad I tossed all magnets more than 10 years ago.. I'll never go back 8-)

What a beautiful track! What kind of length are those lanes?
very nice!

80 to 85 feet I think.
White lane is shortest obviously but it has an extra wiggle up before the corkscrew on the back stretch so you can win from any lane.
I had 2 wins in blue last night in my NC1 car.

Kevin, glad you enjoyed yourself Thursday night. It was certainly a blast! That was the largest group I've had over for quite awhile. The lap lengths are actually between 78 and 79 feet from inside to outside. Those videos are awesome and I will keep a bookmark on them.

That is a great track, I have had a chance to race on it.
There is a lot of detail in the scenery to divert you attention.
The white lane may be shortest, but I found it to be the hardest.

That is a awesome track! I raced on it a few years back. Cool shots!
