This weekend, for the first time ever, NOPI came to Old Bridge Township Raceway Park in Englishtown, NJ. For NOPI’s inaugural event in New Jersey, NOPI sure pulled off an outstanding event. The 2008 season hasn’t been the best for NOPI when it comes to weather and this weekend was no different. Saturday the weather was cold and misty for most of the day which meant that the action would have to wait and hope for a more forgiving Sunday. The forecast looked much better for Sunday though and by 11AM the skies had cleared up and the event was filling with spectators.

There were over 21,000 people in attendance to check out variety of events that NOPI Motorsports has to offer. Englishtown is known for great racing action and this weekend didn’t disappoint. Racers from all over the country and Puerto Rico came out in full force to see who would take home top honors this weekend.

In total there were 550 entrants that registered to show their rides in the car show.
