Despite the most recent, and unusual, snow storm this Halloween weekend New Egypt Speedway is actually planning on racing at least two more weekends in 2011. This coming weekend will see the track presnt a quite unique event, while in two weeks they will try to make up the show lost this weekend to the storm.
Saturday November 5th will see the return of the Big Kahuna Series, with a twist. Billed as the "Fall Jamboree", it will feature the Tobias SpeedSTR's, Bilstein Slingshots, Legends, and Enduro, as usual, however, an addition to the scheduled events is a 25-lap Run-What-Ya-Brung, with very limited rules, Big-Block Modified event , known as the "Jersey Jam."
This could certainly be an interesting event with the addition of the Big-Block race. With most of the dirt racing on the East Coast wrapped up, one can only wonder who will show up, driving what?
New Egypt will then try to make up the show it lost this weekend to the snow storm. The November 12th event will feature the "Friends of Mike" Gritty 50 for Crate-1's, the "Romano Memorial" 42 for Sportsman, a Demolition Derby, Enduro, and Vintage Cars. Still billed "Halloween Havoc", the track plans to still hold a costume contest, that day.
This is quite an ambitious schedule this late in the season, especially considering the weather we just had this weekend. However, racers never want to stop racing, and NJ race fans are a hardy bunch.
