Thanks for the info, good to know. The DC Car Scene website and Facebook page both have it on the calendar continuing through September. It would be disappointing to drive all the way up there for nothing!

I've seen car gatherings at Bristow Center before—anybody know what the schedule for those is?

Oh, then they must still be on. I was sharing their original flyer so they just have added dates. If it's coming straight from DC Car Scene, trust it's still on, not me.

They just posted dates for September and October on their Facebook page this week, so it is definitely still going.
Facebook Post

I also managed to find the Facebook page for the group that meets in Bristow—it says they meet every Saturday at 4:30 PM. The group is called Classics @ "The Wall"—private group, but they accepted my join request right away.

In searching for that, I found a show scheduled for September 30 in Bristow, which I'm planning to register for.

Bumping this thread for 2024 to put some ideas in heads.

MIR has a bunch of Test and Tunes in the spring, starting with March 3rd, 10th, and 17th (which is also a swap meet).

I am very bad at drag racing based on the one time I went in November, but am excited to get more practice this year.

Going to try to keep this thread updated with shows as more folks start to publish more show schedules for the year.

I'm hoping ill be back together by mid March, I'd def go down to MIR but I doubt I'd run, the car doesn't weight transfer good on the coilovers lol. Def down to hit up Katies and Dulles a few times. We've been talking about trying to get something kicked up in Charles Town on Friday nights again but no details yet, still trying to find a good place to do it. Little trickier now with all the new traffic/people out this way. Mason Dixon test and tune starts mid march to I think

Just registered for this event at Dominion Raceway.

Should be a fun, low-stakes way to get your cars out on the track with some competition. They do require a Snell rated helmet which I'll be renting from OG Racing here in Sterling for $75.
