CDC (Capital Driving Club) is relatively small, but friendly group. They have loaner helmets, instructors, and allow ride-a-longs. The lot is at Bowie Baysox stadium (Prince Georges Stadium).

Here is a FAQ everyone should read through. I will hotlink the registration when it opens in two weeks with instructions....

I will be at this one as a gear up for the BMW NCCA season finale on the 23rd. I'm in the top 3 in points in my class so I have a chance to take home a trophy.

This'll be right after my court date, so maybe I'll come to either celebrate or blow off some pent up aggression...

Also, if we get a few to come out. I'll make myself available for ride-a-longs. If we get 6-7 runs I will use ~4 for you guys to ride with me.

Registration is now open.

When you click the register now......use guest.......then type in 0 for the number. See you guys there.

The horsepower part of the index is measured at the wheels. Be honest. If you have bolt-ons (03-06) you are 250-350. Stock under 250.

Clay is all signed up....

Also, I always run in Heat 2. Most guests run in heat 4. So you should be able to ride with me and vice versa.
