Default new to the area, looking for strips and n2o laws

i just transfered here and was wondering about those 2 things. what are the good 1/4 mile strips in DC area, and what are the DC/MD/VA laws on nitrous. in nebraska and iowa, it was allowed to be installed and the bottle opened, but not used on the streets. in ohio, the bottle had to be closed. i don't want to get busted for just driving around with the bottle in, and it's easier to ask here than read through three sets of lawbooks.

I believe your allowed to have a bottle back there but it cant be connected, either that or it cant be opened. I forget one or the other. LOL


But a good track, IMO the best one is MIR. Maryland International Raceway.

i never had a problem with nitrous... ive been pulled over many times with nitrous hooked up ready to go.... "bottle open" Cops didnt really care.. i even asked a cop down here in sposty what the law was his remarks "I dont know, i think its you can have the bottle in your car.... shit i dont even care"

but then again... how many times you been pulled over and the cop ask you to pop your trunk or hood?

never, but it's kind of hard to hide in a half-gutted CRX. plus i'm paranoid but it sounds like it's not a hot button issue here, which is good.

The police will be gay to you here. I'm not sure if anyone has told you, but FFX county police are notorious for being the biggest assholes EVER. You will get a ticket for exhaust, you will get one for suspension, and if they see a nitrous bottle perched in your trunk, be damn sure that they'll try to find a way to get you for it. I'm just trying to be frank with you, FFX cops do not fuck around.

Best tracks.. hmm 1/4 the best tracks are probably MIR, and I think that there is a decent one in Richmond. There is a decent 1/8 mile track out in Manassas as well.

BTW, welcome to the area. NoVA is a nice place to live

you can have it but you just can't have the hose going from the bottle to the engine bay. Hope that helps

Welcome to NOVA. The best track is Maryland International Raceway, which is typically an hour or so from most NOVA locations. Old Dominion Speedway in Manassas is a decent 1/8 mile track.

Coming from the Midwest, you will grow to hate the traffic within your first week. It looks like your military. If I were you, I would use your military perks of getting out of state plates legitmately. It will save you a lot of hassle with the local police, as they don't care too much about out of state registered vehicles.
