About New England Dragway

New England Dragway is a dedicated quarter-mile drag strip located at 280 Exeter Road in Epping, New Hampshire. Opened in 1966, it has become one of New England’s best-known drag racing facilities and serves as the region’s premier motorsports strip. The venue is set in a rural to semi-rural area of Epping, with grandstands running along the track and dedicated staging and pit areas that support both professional and grassroots racing.

The event calendar centers on motorsports, including NHRA national drag racing events, Top Fuel, Funny Car, Pro Mod, grassroots and bracket racing, import and tuner shows such as Import Face-Off, test-and-tune sessions, and car enthusiast gatherings. Its major annual draw is the NHRA New England Nationals, which brings the national drag racing tour to New Hampshire and features some of the sport’s fastest classes.

As an outdoor facility in the Northeast, New England Dragway primarily operates from spring through fall, with the racing experience built around the sights, sound, and speed of quarter-mile drag racing.

Location & Transportation

New England Dragway is located at 280 Exeter Road, Epping, NH 03042 — in the Route 27 area of Epping, with driving access from Route 101 and nearby highways.

Driving and Parking: Access is primarily by car, and on-site parking is available for events. For major race days, especially national-event weekends, expect congestion, queuing, and heavier traffic near the facility. Arriving early helps with parking, entry lines, and getting settled before racing begins.

Nearby Accommodation: Lodging is available in nearby communities including Exeter and Portsmouth, as well as along the I-95 and Route 101 corridors. The Seacoast region and the Manchester area also offer additional hotel options for fans traveling in for a full race weekend.

Venue Navigation

New England Dragway is organized around the drag strip, with spectator seating oriented toward the racing surface and activity centered on the starting line, down-track viewing, staging areas, and pits. Understanding the basic layout helps you choose tickets based on whether you want the launch experience, top-end speed perspective, or easier movement around event areas.

Seating Levels: Grandstand seating runs along the drag strip, with views oriented toward the track and starting line. Starting-line grandstand areas put fans closer to the launch, while down-track sections offer a different view of speed as cars move toward the finish. Pit and staging areas are accessible with appropriate credentials at national events.

Dining Options

Inside New England Dragway

Trackside concessions are typically available on event days, with standard motorsports fare suited to long outdoor race days. Vendor details and food options can vary by event, so planning for concessions during breaks in racing or before peak meal times can help reduce wait time.

Outside the Venue — Epping

Dining options are available in Epping and nearby Exeter, with additional restaurants along the Route 101 and I-95 corridors toward Portsmouth. Fans staying in the Seacoast region or traveling in from nearby communities can find pre-event and post-event meals in those surrounding areas.

Security & Policies

New England Dragway maintains security and venue policies that are updated regularly and may vary by event. Before attending, reviewing the current policy on the venue's official website is strongly recommended.

Bag Policy: Policies vary by event, and larger national events such as NHRA race weekends typically apply bag checks and can restrict cooler and bag sizes. Reviewing the venue’s current guidelines before packing helps prevent delays at entry.

Entry Procedures: Expect ticket verification and bag checks at entry for major events. Arriving with compliant bags and pre-downloaded digital tickets helps speed the process when lines are busiest.

How Much Do Tickets to New England Dragway Cost?

New England Dragway ticket prices vary significantly depending on the type of event, the race weekend or event, seating section, and demand — which is what you'd expect from a venue that hosts everything from grassroots racing and car shows to the NHRA New England Nationals.

For grassroots events, car shows, and import/tuner events such as Import Face-Off, tickets are often approximately $15–$40, depending on the event format and access level.

For the NHRA New England Nationals, single-day general admission tickets typically run around $40–$75, with multi-day passes and reserved or premium options priced higher. Event tier, single-day versus multi-day access, reserved versus general admission seating, and pit or credentialed access can all affect final pricing.

For marquee events like the NHRA New England Nationals, buying earlier generally secures better pricing and seating options. As inventory shrinks and the event date approaches, the best remaining sections and pass types can rise in price.

New England Dragway Seating Guide

New England Dragway seating is built around the drag strip, so your preferred view depends on how you want to experience the race. Starting-line areas emphasize the launch, while down-track seats highlight speed and the run toward the finish.

Best Seats at New England Dragway

  • Best value: General admission areas — commonly offered for many drag strip events, general admission can provide flexible access and a straightforward way to experience racing, with configuration varying by event.
  • Closest to the action: Starting-line and pit-adjacent grandstand areas — these areas put fans close to the launch, where the sound, acceleration, and staging activity are most intense.
  • Best overall experience: Grandstands near the starting line — these seats offer a strong balance of track visibility and the signature launch experience that many drag racing fans look for.
  • Down-track viewing: Sections farther down the strip — these areas offer a different perspective, with views focused on top-end speed as cars move toward the finish.
  • General admission: General admission is commonly offered for many events at drag strips, giving fans a flexible way to attend when that configuration is used.

Getting Ready for Your New England Dragway Event

Once your tickets are confirmed, a few practical preparations make your visit run significantly smoother — especially at an outdoor motorsports facility where race days can be long and parking areas can get busy.

  • Download your tickets before you leave. Save your tickets to your phone's wallet or screenshot them before departing so you're ready at the entrance without needing a signal.
  • Charge your phone fully. Digital ticketing is standard, and your phone is your entry. A portable battery pack is worth having for a full evening.
  • Arrive early. Arrive early for major events to manage parking fill, entry queues, and movement around the facility before racing begins.
  • Wear the right footwear. New England Dragway is an outdoor facility with grandstands and walking between pits, staging, and spectator areas, so comfortable footwear is advisable.
  • Dress in layers. The venue is exposed to sun, heat, and rain, and drag racing days can run long. Bring sun protection, layers, and rain gear based on the forecast.
  • Build extra time into your transit plan. Major race days can bring congestion and queuing near the facility, so extra travel time helps reduce stress before the event starts.
  • Check the bag policy in advance. Reviewing the venue's guidelines before packing prevents delays at security.
