I am also from Spring/Woodlands area. Houston Raceway (Royal Purple) is OK and the only 1/4 mile around, but if you just want to try it out go to Houston Motorsports Park. High class track with great people. Only an 1/8 mile track but still loads of fun. Oh and if you are on a college budget, don't race it if you can't afford to break it.

Be better to wait till the fall when the weather is cooler.. Cars will run down the track better.. There will be less bugs out.. Won't be sweating as bad waiting to stage...

Plus I gotta get a helmet.. At the 1/8 mile track if you run anything faster I think than a 9 flat you have to wear one... I know that stang will run at least that fast..
