Has anyone been to the Fredericksburg track and is it worth while going to? I think it is along route 3. Does anyone have better directions? Are there any others in the DC area?:smile:

 

Don't know much in your area... but if you're ever in Chicagoland, you have to checkout Chicago Indoor Racing http://www.chicagoindoorracing.com/

They have several tracks and you dress up in racing uni's complete with helmet and neck support! I've done it once (it's not cheap ) and it was a blast!! I jumped in my MCc afterwards and realized driving the MINI was better :smile:

 

Here's a link for you - I think the DCMM club tried coordinating an event there but fell short of the minimum # for a group event.

Haven't heard about one in Fredricksburg. Is that closer to you than NoVA?

 

There's one in Richmond http://www.gforcekarts.com/

 

Thanks for the replies. Chicago sounds great, but it would be a bit much for a day trip. Fredericksburg is about a 1.5 hour trip from Southern Maryland and rt. 618 is one way of getting there. It isn't the Dragon, but it still a thrill. Richmond would be a nice drive also and we haven't been there for a while.

Motor On! Safely!!

 

studtke,

I'm surprised you posted such a "localized" question in the MINI Talk forum! Head on over to the DCMM forum, and check it out - lots of good DC stuff there. And if you're not a member yet, consider joining. :smile:

I've heard rumblings at some more recent events that it might get resurrected too...

 

I belong to DCMM as well as PhillyMini and a few others. I also try to get together with MINI-owners at Pax River, but it seems that they are all too busy to join me for a soda somewhere.
