New owner at this track‼…read more Many improvements. They have a new and functional public announcing (loudspeaker) system. They have painted the seating. New concession provider. It is a very pleasant place to visit now. I think the previous owners didn't want to invest in making this a successful track. The new owner DOES want to succeed and it is very obvious with all the effort they have put into this facility. Not a five star rating yet, because their web page is still directly associated with the previous owner. They need to end that association and establish their very own website, with an appropriate URL name and more accurately reflect their new commitment and personality to this facility. Happy to see the changes and enjoy the races much more now.

I've been here a good half dozen or so times, first starting last year as a spectator with some…read morefriends. I quickly caught the bug and started brining my own car here, every couple months or after some major work. Prices are extremely reasonable for the event itself. ~$20 for as many runs as you can make, which on a Wednesday night, is about as many as you want. Fridays tend to be a bit more crowded as well as interesting, as various other machines are there (snowmobiles, spec dragsters, etc). There is a fee to spectate, something like $10 or so. Food is on premises, although I wouldn't recommend making a meal out of it; typical race track food and prices (dogs, burgers, fries). You pull up to the gate, pay your fee, line your car up for inspection, and get your bracelet. Once everything is all squared away, pull up for staging and go down the track. Helmets are required for sub 13 second cars (anything heavily modified or high performance) and long pants / closed shoes are needed for both passengers and drivers. You use the actual timing tree the pros get, which is a lot of fun, and a slip at the end of your run complete with trap speeds, 1/4 times, reaction time, and a few other numbers. Although you stage alongside people (you can choose who if you'd like) it's not a competitive environment at all, everyone is just out to see how they do and look at the cars. Lots of gas stations nearby, so don't worry about filling up before or after. If you're unsure about whether or not you want to race, go anyways, bring what you need, and just watch for a while. If you feel comfortable, give it a try. I have only seen or heard of two incidents here in my year of attending, and they were both very minor and on very cold nights.

My granddaughter so badly…read morewanted to go to Mini-Mel's so we checked the website to see if they are open yet for the season and it said they were open from 12-6PM. See photo of website that I checked today. I even had my wife call them to confirm because it is April 23rd and I wasn't sure if the season started yet. No one answers the phone. They just have a recording saying to check their website for days and hours. So we drove there. The ticket booth had a lighted sign that says, "Open" and listed their hours as Noon - 6PM Monday through Sunday starting April 19th but no one was there and many rides had tarps over them. We walked around looking for someone and finally found a person who worked there. They said they are only open on weekends. My wife explained that she called and no one answers the phone. The person said that we should have checked the website for their hours. She said, "We did and it says you are open." As does the lit up sign at the ticket booth! The person said, "Well all the rides are closed and covered with tarps." Anyway, my granddaughter started crying. She was so disappointed because we had told her all about the rides and bounce house and she had been so excited to go. We couldn't go back on the weekend because she was leaving to go back home to Maine on Friday. This place has gone downhill. This is the second time in the last year that it has been closed when it was supposed to be open and I will not subject my grand kids to this nonsense and disappointment, nor will I give my hard earned money to a company with such poor customer service. Save your money and go someplace where they will treat you right!

I wanted very much to give this experience a higher rating than 3 stars. Let's talk about how the…read morerating was arrived at. I prefer to be positive, and so I assume that every establishment starts off with a 5 star rating and has to work hard to knock itself down. 7:15AM: Arrive at New Hampshire Motor Speedway a little earlier than anticipated. Buzzing with excitement. Even driving in the underpass to the track is thrilling. Unfortunately, Rusty Wallace loses 0.5 stars for absolutely shitty signage. It's confusing as to how the heck I'm supposed to find out where I am going, and I worried about accidentally driving the rental car onto the actual race track. Now that I think about it, racing a Kia rental may not have been such a bad thing. So we're at 4.5* now. 7:35AM: Checking in, and realize the whole process is a sales pitch. I suspect this might be how a person feels if they walk into a car dealership and announce that they want to spend lots of money. You are "strongly encouraged" to purchase many add-ons. From extra laps (if I wanted extra laps, I'd have purchased them when I bought my initial package), to an insurance package (they will remind you many times how costly a wreck might be... but forget to point out how many out clauses they give themselves in the insurance package so they won't have to pay up if you wreck), to ride-alongs (because "without one, you won't know what you're doing"). Minus 0.5* there. We're at 4*. 7:50AM: I get suckered into purchasing the in-dash video package. I am informed that the package costs $59 when the information emailed to me indicates that it is $49. The staff member tells me it is because they just added in "new video equipment" which is why the price may be higher. Umm, how about I call bullshit? I got your email 2 days before. I don't think you just installed a video system. Upon presenting the email, she drops the price to $49. I love it when a business makes up arbitrary prices. Minus 1* there. Now at 3*. 8:30AM: The training session is supposed to start at 8AM, but because they are understaffed, everyone sits and waits and waits. Minus 0.5*. 2.5* now. 9:45AM: Finally get out onto the track and race. The experience is everything that you expect it to be and more. An incredible thrill. Plus 1* to 3.5*. Remember the original issue of signage? Well the on-track signage sucks shit too. Rusty Wallace couldn't spring for an extra pylon or two to make it clear where you're supposed to brake? Or another roll of pink tape to mark the passing lanes? Seriously, when I'm driving a NASCAR vehicle, and pissing my pants because I'm afraid of driving into a wall, the last thing I want to worry about is if I can spot the single orange pylon (that is scuffed up, and is now mostly black and camouflages itself nicely with the racetrack wall) to know where I should brake. Minus 0.5* to 3*. So there you have it. 3*. Which is unfortunate because the driving itself was fan-fucking-tastic and would be a 5* by itself.

I have purchased two brand new bikes in under a year from Cycles 128. The dealer was in my new…read morehometown, so I wanted to support them as well as capitalize on the convenience of their proximity to where I live. The first bike was a brand new 2017 Kawasaki Versys X, but it was at their sister dealership in Arlington (Cycles128 doesn't sell Kawasaki). My salesman at the time was Billy, and he was able to have the bike transferred from Arlington to Beverly for me, and I hadn't even put a deposit down on it. yet. This was based on a phone call I had made while on vacation in Costa Rica. Convenient! The whole process was easy, painless, and very relaxed. There was never any pressure or upselling, and it never felt predatory as vehicle sales so often are. Fast forward to just under a year later, and I decided to upgrade to a Suzuki VStrom 650. This time I had the great pleasure of dealing with Ellen Petrilli and Rick Brandano. Yet another chill, great experience. I told them right up front what I was looking for, and with that knowledge, they showed me other alternatives to consider but never discouraging me from my original goal. Their inventory is incredibly vast and a virtual candy store, and I was glad for the other options that were shown to me. I had my heart set on the VStrom, so we got down to business. Worth noting was a little hiccup on Suzuki's part, as their manufacturer website claimed that there were certain accessories included with the bike that tuned out not to be. Not a concern because Rick and C128 were on the case and miraculously got Suzuki to make good on their claim. They didn't have to do that, because most dealerships would predictably claim their hands were tied and just shrug it off. But not these guys. They totally prevailed and saved the day. That I will never forget. The numbers part of the operation was handled by Brad, with whom I had worked with on my prior purchase as well. Another great asset to the company. I now half-expect people to yell "Norm!" when I walk into the place now because I dealt with a lot of people and they're just a warm bunch. Just awesome.
