Halloween Shred Party

Activity Details – Driver, Crew, Guests and Spectators

NH North of the Notch is a great place to shred tires and hang with some really cool people at a really cool spot! The Humphrey family is very welcoming to us drifters and it's always an amazing time. We are constantly improving the experience and building a future of NH drifting at Riverside Speedway. Our Grid Master is able to move cars out of grid quickly and safely with a exit at the end of the track run onto the oval for cooldowns and to catch up with your next tandem crew. We run open grid during general hours 9AM-5PM and keep the grid line to a minimum by sending singles into a 'P' to the right and tandems to the left into a 'Bowtie'. It's not a super-fast course, but it makes for a lot of multi-car tight tandems. Fun to experience, photograph and enjoy a day at the track rain or shine.

Camping is available for $25/campsite/night for drivers and crew only.
