<\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\nFans from throughout the northern New England region have been flocking to the Thrasher Road speedplant to take in its storied Fourth of July shows for more than half a century and, although this year\u2019s event will require some social distancing in the grandstand area, Friday\u2019s six-division racing show and gigantic aerial display will carry on that great tradition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The thundering Granite State Pro Stock Series will be back in town, battling in the night\u2019s main event, a 100-lap feature like the one contested here a month ago, when Nutmeg State star Ray Christian was victorious on opening night.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n
While there will be six divisions competing on Friday night\u2019s card of racing, speedway promoter Mike Parks has stated that the fireworks show will take place around 9:30 p.m., with several of the event\u2019s feature races held after that for the convenience of families hoping to get their children home at a reasonable hour.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Along with the GSPSS, the track\u2019s Late Model Sportsmen, Street Stocks, Pure Stocks, Mini Stocks and Six-Shooters will all be in action Friday.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
It will be the fast LMS squad\u2019s second outing of the summer, and Croydon\u2019s Aaron Fellows brings an 18-race unbeaten streak into Friday\u2019s show, having not lost an LMS event here since August 4, 2018, when Charlestown\u2019s Ben Poland turned the trick.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Post time for Friday\u2019s big event is 7:15 p.m., when the Pro Stock Series will begin time trials, with qualifying races run immediately after. Claremont Motorsports Park is conveniently located on Thrasher Road, only five minutes from both I-91 and Claremont\u2019s city center.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
