Starting next wek I am going to be there for work until 4/16. What else besides NHRA is there going on?

The Woodlands is about 45 min from where I live, in SE Houston. For the most part, it is nice out there.

As you said right now, the NHRA will be visiting Baytown (about an hour away) on April 8-11.

This is the good time of the year for the weather in Houston, but it tends to rain a few days a week.

You are about 30 minutes from Downtown Houston and 40 minutes from West Houston (Richmond strip, Wesheimer, Uptown) which are the happening places for Houston, if you like that kind of stuff.

Galveston (about 1 hr, 20 min) is ok, just don't expect Florida beaches.

I don't know the schedule, but if you are into
outlaw, index, or wild street type racing(on a strip) you might check out Houston Motorsports Park (HMP). It's an 1/8 mile but can still be very interesting. Look for their web site.

Thanks, I'll check it out.

also, if you like chicken fried steak, travel about 15 minutes to Tomball and eat at Goodson's. BEST damn chicken fried steak you'll ever eat !!!

Thanks, I might try that.

Theres some kind of racing basically every weekend. Houston raceway park (HMP) Has a 1/8 drag(not a fan of this track) and they have an asphalt oval track. Houston Raceway Park (HRP) has 1/4 mile drag (NHRA Track) and a dirt circle track. Theres also a huge mall called the Galleria on Westheimer, a little south of downtown.

Texas Crawfish and Music Festival in Spring (minutes south of The Woodlands) 4/9 - 4/11 - get yer cajun on.

Dosey Doe Coffee House has live music most every night - check their website.

Mel's Country Cafe - always in the top five of best burgers in Texas.

The Woodlands itself has an untold number of restaurants/bars.

Astros home stand 4/5 - 4/11 SF and Philly.

Dozens of golf courses.

Enjoy.
