2022 NHRA New England Nationals Pro Stock Results
After a short hiatus on the NHRA calendar, Pro Stock racing returned this past weekend. And Erica Enders clearly spent her respite prepping for this race. Facing last year’s New England Nats winner Aaron Stanfield in the Finals, Enders cut a lightning quick light, on her way to a 6.547-second, 211.00 mph run—enough to hold off a hard-charging Stanfield’s 6.553 @ 212.13.

2022 NHRA New England Nationals Top Fuel Results
Repeating his performance from last year, Mike Salinas found himself in the Final Round of Top Fuel racing in Epping again. Only this time, he emerged victorious. Paired up against Justin Ashley on Sunday, Salinas wrestled the steering yoke all the way down the track to notch a 3.72-second, 330.80 mph pass, besting Ashley’s 3.782 @ 315.78.
