A Movement Born from the Heart of Local Racing
The New England Truck Series (NETS) began as a passion project—an effort to bring together local racers, families, and tracks under one banner. Today, it has grown into one of the most recognized grassroots motorsport leagues in the region. Blending fierce competition with a fan-first attitude, NETS is more than a race—it’s a community movement.
From the pits at New London-Waterford Speedbowl to the straights of Seekonk Speedway, the sound of high-revving trucks has become a weekend tradition for families and die-hard race fans. NETS is filling a much-needed role in regional racing: giving local talent a real platform, while delivering adrenaline-fueled entertainment with a small-town soul.
Why NETS Stands Out in a Crowded Racing Landscape
While national series like NASCAR attract corporate dollars and national TV deals, NETS focuses on real accessibility. Drivers are approachable. Fans can walk the paddocks. Children can meet their heroes. And ticket prices remain fair—something that helps bring in multi-generational families every weekend.
Meet some of NETS’ top-performing drivers here, and you’ll see they aren’t just racers—they’re neighbors, mechanics, high school coaches, and local business owners. This authenticity makes the racing even more personal for fans in the stands.
Local Tracks, Local Heroes
NETS operates across some of the region’s most historic short tracks. Places like:
- New London-Waterford Speedbowl (CT) – Known for tight racing and strong weekly programs
- Seekonk Speedway (MA) – The “Action Track of the East,” a true proving ground for truck racing talent
- Monadnock Speedway (NH) – High-banked intensity in the Granite State
Each venue brings its own unique challenges and fan base. But all share the same NETS commitment: accessible, high-quality racing that supports local economies and builds lifelong memories.

Community Is the Engine Behind NETS
Everything about NETS reflects its grassroots DNA. From driver meet-and-greets to fundraising events for local charities, the series operates with a clear mission: racing should give back. Each race day is designed to celebrate not just the drivers—but the community that makes racing possible.
Local sponsors, food trucks, and volunteers come together to create a festival-like atmosphere. Fans feel like part of the team—because they are. NETS doesn’t race in a vacuum; it races for its region.

Growing the Next Generation of Racers
One of the most exciting elements of the New England Truck Series is its ability to grow new talent. Young drivers from karting and Legends divisions now look to NETS as the next step in their journey toward national prominence.
At the same time, veteran drivers use the series to stay connected to the sport they love—offering mentorship and setting examples for how to race hard but fair. This blend of youth and experience creates one of the most competitive and dynamic fields in regional motorsports.
What’s Next for NETS?
As NETS heads deeper into the 2025 season, momentum is building. Tracks are seeing larger crowds. Driver rosters are expanding. And online buzz around NETS continues to rise. The league is investing in digital content, improved safety, and even exploring possible expansion into new venues across the Northeast.
For fans, this means more racing, better access, and even deeper engagement with the drivers and teams that make this series so special. For drivers and sponsors, NETS is proving to be a true stepping stone—or a fulfilling career destination in its own right.
