It is a Friday / Saturday / Monday event with Sunday being a quiet day.  
My recollection is that the Kastner Cup race is on Monday.  Confirmed - 
looking at older messages, Henry sent this out Jan 9th:

"Thursday late afternoon the track hosts a parade open to race cars, 17 
miles of beautiful New England countryside ending in a street fair in 
Falls Village, a quaint little town a couple miles from the track. If 
driving your race car on the street is not your thing, it is well worth 
finding your way to Falls Village to take in the scene.

For the most part, we will have an All-Triumph run group. If our numbers 
exceed a safe run group, we may be forced to put some cars in a more 
appropriate run group, that may apply to cars on both ends of the timing 
sheet. If your Triumph is prepped beyond vintage specs, your tire choice 
will play a big factor on where you run. But rest assured for the main 
event, all the Triumphs will together for the Kastner Cup race!

We have a practice session on Friday morning, and we qualify on Friday 
afternoon. Both sessions on Saturday are races. Monday morning is our 
third race, then right after lunch on Monday we run for the Kastner Cup."

Regards, Tony Drews

            of their intention to run with us, so I put together a quick
