Houston Raceway Park

Less than 40 minutes away from downtown Houston, visitors and locals alike relish in the rush of adrenaline at the Houston Raceway Park in neighboring Baytown. One of the fastest tracks on the National Hot Rod Association's Winston Drag Racing Series tour, this 440-acre drag racing complex was the site of the first "under-five-second run" in NHRA history. The raceway hosts a multitude of NHRA events, including the NHRA Slick 50 Nationals, as well as weekly races for local competitors, street races, junior dragsters, and even concerts. The Houston Raceway Park provides grandstand seating for 23,000 fans and luxury suites for another 10,000. In addition to VIP suites with state-of-the-art timing and scoring decks, the three-story tower features a media center and control facilities. Ample parking, modern bathrooms, and sporting event concessions make a day-trip to the races easy.
