Good to hear. I lived in a pretty dead car area in the south. All my car buddies were imports as well so i wouldnt mind having a few domestic friends.

Well for racing you've got Maryland International(MIR) and Capitol Raceway both in your vicinity. Even if you don't race, you can still go and hang out with the guys that do.

For the shows/cruises this site keeps a pretty good list: http://carcruiseguide.com/carshows.html
Also we have a group called Mid-Atlantic Domestics(MAD), but last time I went by one of their meets they had a bunch Slobalts and Focuses.

The largest weekly meet in the region is Saturday nights in Glen Burnie at Marley Station Mall. It's for historic cars only though(pre-93) so you'll have to park to the side. But they draw 500+ cars on a summer night.

There's usually a meet at Brusters in Gaithersburg but I think they are waiting until it gets warmer for that. Whenever I'm in Germantown I try and cruise around a little but there isn't much of a scene out there. If you like drag racing go to capitol raceway for test+tunes on friday nights. Mentioned above there's a car show in glen burnie thats lots of fun to walk around at. Also check out Mid Atlantic Domestics. We do a bunch of meets and get togethers.

Oh and I almost forgot, while in Glen Burnie, go to Ann's Dari-creme and get yourself a deep fried footlong.

There is one in mt airy. First and third Saturday of every month from spring until fall at jimmy cone. 150+ plus cars old to new etc etc. Im on mad n usually someone posts any car meets or track rentals/days that they hear about. Also the comment on cobalts and focus comment is far from what the site is today. Just a fyi

That was easily two years ago if not more. We're getting larger in number and most of our track attendees are deep into the 11s with a few in the 10s.

It was; like fall 2011. My apologies. I swung by a couple of times when y'all were meeting in the GB-Pasedena area. I kinda wrote you guys off after that.

I'm in Crofton. Capitol Raceway Friday night for test and tune is a good place to hang, usually other Fbodies there. Capitol's not too far from you. MIR would be a LONG drive from you.

I live in silver spring too! We'll have to meet up sometime. I've gone to the meet in Burtonsville when I'm not working. Definitely a good turnout.
