We'll see you there !!!

December 24th, 2009
The last few weeks have been hectic. We've been working hard to secure our racing schedule for next year and the results are in. The 2010 NENDRA racing season is going to be awesome. I have just received final confirmation of our track venues and dates. We have grown from 9 events in 2009 to 15 for 2010. Thanks to all the members and racers for making a great showing everywhere we went. The 2010 membership/rules package is up and ready for download, and the 2010 racing schedule is official and has also been posted. The member open house outting will most likely be the 3rd week in January so be on the lookout for that update. Be sure to read the new recruit kickback program offered this year. Should be a great way to grow the membership. If anyone has any questions or comments, please do not hesitate to contact us direct.
Hope everyone has a fun and safe holiday season. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year !!!

The Nendra show made its way to Island for event Number 9 this weekend. Possibly the best weather of the season. The Danbury John and Cuda Steve show was again in full effect. In the tightest race I have ever seen, Danbury John took the win over Steve Seifert. Check out these Numbers.
John:  Dial 10.71 - R/T.000 - ET 10.726 WIN
Steve: Dial 9.29 - R/T .010 - ET 9.306

Another event plagued by the almighty and unkowing weathermen. The diehards were out in force and another NENDRA event is decided by inches. Event #1 winner GTX Jeff Kraenzle (North Bennington, VT) returned to take another win sporting his new Sox and Martin Tribute Paint Scheme. Wayne Farquhar has become Mister consistent making it to another final but losing again by a thread (.018) margin at the stripe. Next event is scheduled for August 8th at Lebanon Valley Dragway. Be sure to check out the newest event photos including a great one from the final showing GTX Jeff chasing down Wayne.

Here is the rundown from the 6/6 event at Lebanon Valley. Last weeks winner Steve Seifert made it to the finals but redlit away a victory. Congratulation to winner John Colabattisto of Danbury, CT. Our Next event is Saturday 6/20 at Lebanon Valley Dragway.

Here are our results from this past Saturday 5/23 at Lebanon Valley for our Nendra event #2. I think I want to be a weatherman so I can get paid to be wrong all the time. The Valley was great with temps in the 70's and humidity hanging around 35%. Steve Seifert from Shelton, CT in his 1971 Plymouth Cuda came out on top due to a redlight from runner up Wayne Farquhar of Massachussetts and his 1966 Chevy Nova. With the win Steve has taken over the points lead and Wayne made a huge jump into the #2 points position. Congrats to both and thanks everyone for attending. I know I had a blast even though I suffered a flat, taking me out before round one. Oh well. Our next 2 events are at Lebanon Valley on June 6th and June 20th.

Event #1 in the 2009 NENDRA racing series got off to a strange start. With the threat of weekend rain in the forecast all week, car count for the first event of the year was low. But, that did not take away from a great day of racing. Congratulations to GTX Jeff for taking the win and Chris "SUPERSTOCKRACER" taking runner-up at the first event of the year. Event photos are below and points/results can be found on the Results page. Next event is scheduled for Saturday May 23rd, at Lebanon Valley. See you there.

We want to welcome Dragtime News to our list of supporters. www.dragtimenews.com

He has returned with Dragtime News website that will continue in the tradition of the newspaper. It will focus on the news and information that's important to us, the serious bracket racer.
