Default Germantown MD ppl where does everyone meet?

I will be coming home the 19- 24 to visit the family and was wondering where everyone meets at? I heard they opened up 75/80 again. Is the MC fair in town yet? I even forgot if there are any good bars around. Last time i think i just chilled at Hard Times drank beer and shot pool.

Let me know whats goin on. Thanx

75/80 did open back up, still a **** hole just like it used to be, but its a 1/8th mile track now. Sundays are the only days where they have 1/4 mile racing. Not worth going anymore.

Is the 1/4 mile test and tune or is it the other cars too? I will agree that the track is nicer than it used to be. I took my car down it on their soft open where they let you race and spectate for free. They just need to get the pits and everything up to par. I will give them credit for the work that they got done in the amount of time that they had.

I heard they redid the track itself and some of the buildings. I saw some pics of it on here not too long ago, it looked like they were making good progress. It definetly can't be worse then capitol, they have the worst track prep and never put any money into the track like other tracks do.

75/80 is pretty much the same as its always been. Alittle rough around the edges but what its matter as long as your having a good time right? The pits are no worse than capitol. I was told that the track last saturday was the best its ever been. Nice and sticky, one guy almost lost his race boots and another guys sandel stuck to the track.. I go up every week, weather permitting. Its a good time especially Saturday for all the fast ****. TT and bikes are 1/4, everyone else 1/8. August 22nd is the biggest race of the year. http://www.street-freaks.com/
