Thanksgiving falls on Thursday, November 24th this year and Capitol Raceway in Crofton, MD is having a test-n-tune on "Black Friday", November 25th.
Gates open at 5:00pm, test-n-tune from 5:30-11:00pm. $10 to spectate, $20 to race.
Last year when SVXRide did some 1/4 mile runs at Capitol on the Friday after Thanksgiving, temps hoovered in the low 40's to upper 30's! Fast times are guaranteed, but dress warmly folks!!!!

P.S. EDIT for Directions
The address Capitol Raceway lists on their website isn't recognized by any of the major navigation websites. I did some digging on-line and the actual street address of the Racewway is:
1455 Jackson Rd, Odenton, MD 21113
Plug this address into either Mapquest or Yahoo! maps and you'll be taken all the way to Capitol Raceway Rd which leads to the dragstrip.
