Yeah, I'm not from NC, but finding the beach can't be too hard. Just drive due-East until you hit a really really really big puddle.

I grew up in Edison NJ, moved to Toms River in 2000 and then to High Point NC in Feb 2005. The car scene here was pretty stout up until a couple months ago when a huge drag racing sting stopped everything.

You can read more about it here:

Like any scene, the obvious cars causing the trouble were the ricers that would race on the regular roads. The faster cars always went out late at night to secluded spots away from harms way.

Since that bust the scene has been very dead. Their are several 1/8th mile drag strips relatively close by but the closest 1/4 mile is Rockingham with is about 90 minutes away.
