The NHRA Div4 LODRS is scheduled for Royal Purple Raceway Park on March 7-9. That's in Baytown, just west of you, but it sounds like you may be gone by then. It seems to get a lot of entries since it's so early in the season.

We've been doing mainly surf fishing and other than
flat heads its been real slow... water temp is cold..
no one is doing much either...this Saturday we will
go watch the belt sander drags at the local pub...
they have some real quick sanders for sure... I told
the wife last year I wanted to build a unlimited belt
sander... she didnt have any problem with that.. but
with the set backs I had with the Rampage I never
got around to building one

I wonder if Dolphin Docks is running any of their Tuna Trips right now? Had some good times with them on shorter trips. Maybe this summer.....

Most of the tuna boats arent going out... too cold
and those 72 hours trips are pretty pricey... we went
out last year on a 8 hour boat and had fun catching
all sorts of fish but lots of sharks and rays.. we're
waiting for the water to warm up before we sign up
for a trip

We have a race scheduled at San Antonio Raceway on 2/15/14. I won't be running my car, but my dad's 85 Charger will be there.
