18th Annual New England Summer Nationals

**Rican 300** · 05-02-2008, 10:03 AM

Here is something I thought I would pass along. This makes for a great time for everyone. In Worcester, MA on July 3rd - July 6, they close down Main St for the Summer Nationals. They have a drag racing competition, burn out contest, beauty pageant, and vendors of all kind. I use to go to this every year. Everyone has a great time. It would be nice to see some of my fellow LXer's show up and participate and show them what our cars are made of. Well here is part of the website. http://www.summernationals.com/index2.html.

If anyone is planning on going, I will post you up here to let everyone else know as well.

Yea I did it when I had my Toyota. The Burnouts are done from in the tunnel till you come out of it. Looks pretty sweet.
