This is one of the best events in the world! A 1.5mi track on a 2.5mi runway. They try to run 2 events per year, the Maine Event in July, and the Harvest Event in late Aug/early Sept.
Loring Timing Association (LTA), the organization that holds the events, has been experiencing low turnout at the Harvest Event and is considering cancelling it this year, this is from the FB post:
A quick review of the pre-event registrations reveals that there is considerable interest in the July Maine Event but limited interest in the August Harvest Event. In 2022 we had the Maine Event and cancelled the Harvest Event for the same reason. Last year we tried both again and had a disappointing turnout for Harvest. We are considering in the future, running just the Maine Event. I am sure everyone realizes that it takes a lot of effort and expense to produce a land speed race event. It just isn't a sound decision to conduct an event for 30 entries. We will re-evaluate in 2 weeks and make the determination at that time.
The importance of the Harvest Event is to get a second chance. If you car has a problem, or you want to make a small change, it allows you to do it and come back and try again without waiting a full year.
Please, any of you guys, those who like speed, who really want to experience real speed, please come and join us these events. If you can only come once, register for the Harvest Event, the weather is cooler, air is better, and it is less crowded.
This is something you will remember for the rest of your life, and you will have stories for the grand kids!
Come join us, register now, and it is a very pleasant drive once you get out of MA!
For the record, I have no affiliation with LTA other than being a participant. My selfish reason is that I would like to attend the Harvest Event and if enough people register I hope they will decide to keep it on the calendar.
Please register now! Thanks!!!
