I am staying in College Park all week on a business trip and I'm bored, so I was wondering if there are any local drag strips open that I could go watch some test and tune nights?

Any NDRA or NHRA racers have shops close by?

Or some local street tracks

Someone pick me up...I'm bored.

Figures thats the night I fly out...ha ha. Thanks for the link.

 

im about 40 min. from college park. check out http://www.mirdrag.com usually some friday night stuff going on. mostly local kids bracket racing. i go sometimes. it cost me some money last time i went since the track wasnt prepped and ended up breaking the tires loose violently in high gear and breaking some stuff.

 

Yeah it seems like you guys do things the normal way here and have stuff Fri and Sat nights. Back home our track nights are Tues, Wed, Thurs, Sun.

I figured there would be something during the week. I have to catch a plane Friday. Thanks for the info guys.

 

yea there isnt much to do around here during the week at all. usually im working on other peoples cars..then come friday night i realize i need to work on mine and have to do everything about 540x faster than i'd like and hope everything goes ok for the weekend haha.

not sure how old you are....but thursday nights in baltimore is like a hot girl convention. college night or some crap like that. thats really the only thing i could possibly suggest haha. hot girls and beer....usually a good combo when you dont have cars to keep you entertained

 

Hit me up when you get here.

 

Has anyone else seen an influx of women with fake ****? Seems like everywhere I go out now...more and more girls are rockin' fakies. Not that I'm complaining...

i prefer to call the....."BOLT ONS." and on Asian girls they are JDM SPEC "BOLT ONS" LOL but anyways not to get side tracked from the thread. everyone mentioned where the hot spots are. Glenn Burnie normally has a decent street race scence.

 

Thanks I'll try to find it. Maybe I'll take the rental van over there and put the smack down

 

there aint **** to do hehe i live 5 mins from dc. you can drink and thats about it

 

There are a lot of Hondas here...that's a pleasant suprise. Back home everyone bought Evos and STis and crap like that. I miss seeing Hondas running around everywhere like the old days.

 

funny you say that.....i'd say 90% of my freinds from high school are driving evo's, wrx's, or sti's......or they live in crack houses and take van-go.

screw a car payment....i buy peice of crap cars and put all the money under the hood haha

 

Speaking of which...you need to take me for a spin in that piece of crap

i wish, its so packed on friday nights and it always seems to rain on fridays or at least when i can go to capital. that place needs to open on weeknights

 

ahhhh capital...i hate that track! you should really really really consider going to MIR instead!! last time i went to capital it was prepped so bad i had a hard time keeping the car straight...it was kinda scary....i got so frustrated with traction issues i just went home

 

well maybe you should go on a saturday when real racers show up....thats when capitol spends money on the track......thats when the best conditions show up....but hell I'm not one to talk ****....but maybe It's because saturday racers are in it to make money and not just go straight down the track just to say they did something......fridays are bench racers....saturday is for buisness men....by the way import day is sunday......

 

for all those people in the d.c. area that complain there is no place for imports ....here is a day for you....lets see how may show up on a sunny clear day on sunday?http://www.capitolraceway.com/capitols_schedule.htm

 

This is coming from a *** who drives a clapped out SHO
