Foxwoods Resort Casino 301- New Hamshire

Also...anyone who's RV'ing up to NHMS and isn't from the area....PLEASE get to Thunder Road Speedway on Thursday or Stafford Motor Speedway on Friday!!! They are solid 2 hour drives from Loudon but they will not disappoint!

Yeah. They ran that last year as well. Brad K dominated, but there was plenty of passing and handling. I feel like New Hampshire has actually put on good races since 2018.

Brad absolutely didn't dominate, but he did absolutely beat Hamlin. This thing wasn't over until about 60 to go or so. Great drive.
 
My favorite day of the year, only race I get to go to, and it's gonna probably be rained out

****** great.

He dominated. I was there, and it was pretty clear he had the best car in the field before he even got the lead.

Lead the most laps+fastest car+race wins = domination.

That's how I define dominating.

No doubt he had the best car, but while I wasn't there, I have watched that race three times. I will absolutely agree that he had the best car, but so did Hamlin, and that deal was not done until the last 60. That's not domination in my opinion. Brad had to drive that car brilliantly to win. He wasn't managing a 5 second gap or anything like that. We are certainly dealing with semantics here, but I think that the term "domination" suggests crappy racing, and that race was anything but crappy. In fact, maybe the absolute picture of what NASCAR hopes for every week. It was brilliant. Not trying to be an ass here....I think we are saying the same thing.

I think with your prejudicial all things Toyota and my anything but Toyota the answer is probably somewhere in the middle. I just saw the Kez Ford out front for most of the race, and I had faith Hambone would blow it. I do like our newest member to come over to the bright side, Harrison Ford (Burton)

I'm sorry to see this. I think PJ1 has been instrumental in improving the racing at NHMS in the last few years. It is proven to work there by creating a viable second groove.

I hope I'm wrong but I can foresee NASCAR really regretting this decision.
 
They say the closest thing to Loudon is Milwaukee, but Milwaukee races so much better....wonder if that has to due to the longer, wider corners in Milwaukee. If it is, why not copy them for Loudon? Get some passing done....

The one race I go to per year, look forward to it for 364 days, literally the biggest buzzkill of the year.

But I've been to 3 NH races where rain was a concern like this, and it somehow worked out..we will see.

Days are so long this time of year as long as they can start it before 5:30pm they should be good.

The afternoon certainly looks clearer than it did a couple days ago.

Ik...I watch he weather pretty religiously in the winter because I'm an avid skier. I have an outdoor party today so some of that's been coming back. I go beyond Weather Channel/NOAA and look at the actual models and such.

Today was one of those times they said "70% chance of rain" because it's going to rain for 20-30 minutes sometime between 10am and 10 pm today.
 
For those worried, just look at Atlanta last week. Amazing that remained green the entire time with the amount of rain in the area. Just never really hit the track
 
SNE Weather is a accurate app. The race will happen today. I've been there over 60 times, and its rained at least 80% of those times, yet, the race gets in. No worries for todays Winner...

It certainly feels that way...

I used up all my luck the one time I went to the Bristol race in August for the whole weekend. As we pulled into the campground sprinkles were just ending and it was completely dry the next 5 days...in Tennessee...in the middle of August...I should've bought a lotto ticket lol.


Also, @MAGICMILER , did you end up going to the races this weekend?

Never made it yesterday. It was hot enough at Misquamicut, so I know how hot Loudon was. Also, the attendance looked lackluster at best, I'm surprised, since The Modifieds usually are a huge draw... Not going today, was hoping for rain today so I could go tomorrow . Pretty selfish of me..
Bristol, 2 years ago, the vendor area next to the Main entrance was under water. We've always parked at Roger's Garden Campground directly across from the Main entrance, and to see the drowned Campground in person was something else.

I think a lot of people don't understand that '70% chance of rain' doesn't mean it's going to rain 70% of the day, or that the probability has no connection to the total amount of rainfall.

That 70% only means there is a 70% chance of rain somewhere. :cool:
