This event will be Maine's largest collection of fast track racers for the 2008 season. Big crowd for July event and they all say they are coming back for this one. Looking forward to treating the MRA to some of the best that Maine has to offer.

YES, I'll be there at the gate unless its real late and I'm out like a light. Always allow campers in during the night, just set-up where you want. Expect alot of people coming in on Friday night.

Sad, but even coming from NY you are closer than me and I live in Maine!

We've got a couple of rigs coming Friday night as well...hoping to get there so we can setup the tents before it gets completely dark.

I am not sure how all the folks who traveled so far north felt, but it was enjoyable from a fan point of view. The guys and gals gave us a nice show. We don't get to see rigs with one or both front wheels off the ground much.

I should be getting some pictures and videos posted over the next couple of days on my site. I didn't think to ask for official results before I left, so hopefully David can help us there.

I also thought it was cool to see a few of folks from the MRA run in the MMBA event Sunday afternoon. Same goes for the MMBA guys who ran either day in the MRA event.

I heard a few of the boys with the rails from Maine/New Brunswick say that wanted a blower car after seeing them in action!

Just got back from a great weekend of racing at the Barnyard. This was my first time at this track and it is one of the best tracks that I have ever run on. The guys at the barnyard did everthing in their power to make sure everything went smoothly and that we had a nicely groomed track to race on. I have to say that if anyone has ever thought about going and trying this track, DO IT!!! This track was great!!!

I don't have many results from this weekend but I walked away with a first place finish in Promod cuts and 2 third place finishes in open cuts and scoops. Frank and Tina O. took first and second in both cut and scoop open classes. I stayed and ran on sunday with the MMBA after the MRA races and also took 2 first place finishes with the my fastest pass of the weekend being 2.702 in 200 ft.

I have a few pics from the weekend.Enjoy!!!

Got the first round of pictures posted, but without captions. I have a few of each event: deep mud, MRA drags and MMBA drags.

Note those are just thumbnails and do open to bigger pictures.

I also have some videos of the drags. These are just from my still camera, so the quality is not great. Hope to get some off from my friends video camera later as well.
