The Itinerary
Friday we have planned a scenic car cruise around Lake Winnipesaukee with stops at the Castle in the Clouds for lunch and a tour of the Mansion and Gardens. Next comes the Wright Military Museum in Wolfeboro to see their collection of military history. We will complete the loop around the lake and return to Concord in time for dinner.
Dinner will be on your own but depending on the size of our crowd we can group think and go somewhere as a group.

Saturday is the main event! We will participate in the Classic and Custom Car Show held at the New Hampshire International Speedway NASCAR track. If you have been to the meet in the past you should have gotten a registration flier in the mail already. Simply complete it and send it back. Be sure to state you are with Mercury Marauder.net Car Club on the form under Special Parking. We will NOT be registering with the Muscle Car group this year. Last year this section was dominated by Chevelles and this year it looks like they didn't break out Camaros either. Our best bet is Ford 1972-up which is class 9. Class 1 is All Stock and this could be a possibility as well if you have 0 mods. Trophies are awarded 1st thru 3rd in each class.
There will be a chance to do parade laps on the track and we will look into after car show laps (paced) like we have done in the past. Not sure if track will be set up for oval or road course driving yet, we will update when more info is available.
Car show is $25.00 and is for both days.

If you don't have to rush home Sunday the car show is peer judged and trophies will be awarded both days.
Sunday is breakfast at the hotel and goodbyes and if you don't need to rush home the car show at the NHIS.
This is the proposed itinerary and may be tweaked here and there but we don't foresee any major changes. Paula and I always enjoy planning this meet in beautiful New Hampshire and we hope you'll be able to join us!
Call or PM us for any questions.
