After two years of being held on Grand Prix Sunday, the Hampton Classic’s incredibly popular Leadline Class (more than 100 entries!) is moving back to Opening Day (Sunday, August 25). It moved in 2011 when Hurricane Irene forced cancellation of the Classic’s Opening Day and then stayed on Grand Prix Sunday last year.
