Join Us This Holiday Weekend at New England Summer Nationals

Posted on July 3, 2013 by Dave Lindsey in What's New

The 23rd annual New England Summer Nationals has a brand new home at the Thompson International Speedway!

This huge motorsports complex is located just a few miles south from where this event has been held for the past 22 years. Thompson, Connecticut is a rural town and a quick 15 minute drive south on Rte 395 and it is located in the northeastern corner of Connecticut just over the Massachusetts and Rhode Island borders.

Keeping this show in close proximity to the original location is very important to show owner and promoter Bob Moscoffian! The move became an absolute necessity with the constantly increasing costs of the original location. This show is all about it’s fans and the people who participate in it and the only way too prevent increasing admission and participation prices it had to be moved to another location!

The Factory Five crew of Tony Zullo and Dan Golub will be at the event with the big Factory Five show & event truck and cars. The event runs all day from July 4th thru July 7th. Click here for more information.

Congratulations to Jim. and Cecily T. from Heathsville, VA on graduating their Factory Five Mk4 Roadster build! They received their kit in April 2024. “I was in no rush since I planned on enjoying the build just as much as cruising in it.,” said Jim. “Goes back to my old drag racing days in the 70’s.
