What are the locations of the tracks in PA and when do they have open runs.

I usally run in Etown, but I now am running nitrous and you need a permit in NJ. I dont think I will get it in time to run before the season closes. I had a permit before but it expired.

So I want to get at least one night in, and Im thinking that I can run in PA, I just need to find a track in PA close to me. Im in morrisville, PA, which is about 20 mins from NE Philly

You could probably do either Maple Grove or Cecil County in MD.

Rocket! · 10-14-2010, 08:15 AM

Those are 2 far, lol. If I was trailering it than I would go, but Im not driving there. Etown is like 30-40 mins from me thats about the distance I want to go.

I thought there was a rumor going around that there was a new track opening up right outside PA.

Numidia?

I know its way farther than you want to go, but theres a big PAtuned event this Saturday at Beaver Springs.

Rocket! · 10-14-2010, 11:57 AM

you'll be ok at atco. just stop by the speed shop put the bottle on the counter and they will take car of the rest

Rocket! · 10-14-2010, 11:58 AM

and as long as you have the proper safty equipment you'll be racing... no matter how fast you go you will need at least a jacket to run your car with a power adder no matter what type of adder you have.

The Alchemist · 10-14-2010, 12:56 PM

A jacket? R U serious?

Lol, I like to think Im fast, but Im not that fast. ****, For one thing Im pretty sure I will break 14's , and at etown all you need is a good helmet, which means that I will need to get a new one of those anyway, my moto x helmet wont cut it, lol.

Rocket! · 10-14-2010, 02:08 PM

if you read etown rules and NHRA if your vehicle is equiped with a non factory power adder a jacked is needed no matter if u got a ebay turbo for you honda and still going 18's lol

RedBowTies88 · 10-14-2010, 02:29 PM

The Alchemist · 10-14-2010, 02:35 PM

Isnt Atco's track sloped down hill? Lol that would account for .2 seconds faster.

Now I need to find a jacket, Im feeling really cheap at the moment, and dont want to shell out loot for a jacket.

i dont know and i dont care

they wont bug you for a jacket there, specially if you're running 14's. they've yet to say a word to me a couple seconds faster then that

LM Designs · 10-14-2010, 02:59 PM

Maple Grove or Numidia

Rocket! · 10-14-2010, 04:55 PM

i don't think atco is down hill i know ceicle is down hill. For a street night u might be able to get away with it but if you are going to race competion better safe then sorry

FocusDude · 10-14-2010, 04:58 PM

Atco is your best bet I think.

The only track that I've heard opening up around here is Liberty, but I don't think it will have a 1/4 mile track.

SleeperGoat · 10-14-2010, 05:43 PM

Atco's never said anything to me an I filled the bottle at the track. I've yet to be hit for anything other then a helmet too.

61st & Holstein St.... South Philly

No permit, No entrance fee, No helmets

Track prep is hit or miss and occasionally you may have to shut down in the middle of a run due to a fleeing Puerto Rican running in the middle of the race track.

Other than that...It's fantastic
