Racers Reunion Recap

Racers Reunion Recap

The New England Racing Museum’s annual Racers’ Reunion took place on May 3, 2025 on a dreary day with rain in the forecast. The show beat the rain and ran start to finish without a drop. New this year was a special section of activities for kids. Included therein was the gravity-feed rocker cover racing, junior dragsters, a special area for remote control cars and mini-sprints. As always the fine eating Smoke Shack was on property with their food truck.

BROADBENT BROS LEGACY

BROADBENT BROS LEGACY

We thank Randy Broadbent and the Broadbent family for loaning us Steve Broadbent’s drag racing station wagon for the 2024 season at the museum. The car is a 1982 Chevrolet Malibu Station Wagon that was the parts car for his sons Randy’s first street car at age 16. The build which was started in 1997 was inspired by other successful drag racing wagons. The wagons power to weight ratio was a proven winner with the stock eliminator class. Steve and Bob Broadbent of the Broadbent Bros Racing team started competing at New England Dragway in 1968 and have been a staple of the dragways fabric for decades.
