The lines to get out two hours after the show ended.
Katherine S.

The absolute worst venue I have ever been to. Poor crowd flow and ancient wooden benches (we all know how great wood lasts after 20+ years in the elements! ). And heavens, the railing on the very back, top bench. Well, you remember what happened to Flanders's wife. But what makes it the worst place in the world was leaving. After a two-hour show that ended at 10PM, it took us longer to GTFO. TWO AND A HALF HOURS. We watched the traffic from the bleachers and damn, it took forever for each car to turn out to 40. There were at least 4 lines of cars merging into one to get out. You can imagine how many people used their 4WD to go around and cut in line. Eventually, people got into two lines: one to go right and one to go left. Half an hour into it, boom, we see the accident. Someone got T-boned making a left turn. It was weird how long it took for emergency personnel to show up, that we figured it must be a fender bender, so get your car out of the road! Nope. 10 minutes later, everything stops as the ambulance at the arena decides it should help. Then other agencies show up and you realize it's a lot worse than you thought. Traffic was stopped for 45 minutes. It cleared, and my kids are running up and down the length in front of the bleachers in races the adults organized to keep the kids entertained. Other people's kids were running all over the bleachers, unattended. 11:15ish, I've started watching TV on my phone. I already had the show downloaded; there was no way you could watch anything over the network with as weak as the signal was, plus thousands of other people using their phones. I looked back at the parking lot every so often and saw no changes. 11:30, security comes by and kicks everyone out. Which sucked because it was pretty obvious we'd be sitting in a car for at least half an hour in addition to the hour and a half commute home. I don't fault the venue for wanting to close up shop; just unlucky for us. We stayed in the truck for an hour watching the four lines slowly inch along. One guy started up his car and tried to cut in line. A lady yelled, "WE'VE BEEN SITTING HERE FOR TWO HOURS! YOU JUST STARTED YOUR CAR." He tried to deny it and ended up cutting in front of the car behind her. The kids had fallen asleep, luckily old enough not to have accidents. Well, it helps we didn't buy any concessions. When we heard $18 for a snocone... 12:15, the venue turned off the lights in the parking lot, despite the hundred people still regretting life choices, sitting in a dusty parking after midnight in Hagerstown. 12:25, we turned on the truck and got in line at the end of one of the now shorter lines. 12:28: Freedom We came here to see the Monster Jam and that wasn't great for its own reasons, but I will never ever come here again for anything as God is my witness. But I'll be more than happy to suggest this place to the worst of my enemies (ya know, if I was a time-traveling ninja that constantly fought the worst of the worst attempting to enslave humanity, or had any enemies). Maybe they fall through a rickety 25-foot high wooden bench or simply lean back and fall through. Maybe they'd get hit by a 4WD that recklessly skirted the one line to get out, get t-boned making a left turn, or just die of boredom. Then, and only then, would Hagerstown Speedway have served a meaningful purpose on this Earth.

About to watch some great racing.  Tim and Jay went off to say hi to sone friends so we're just chillin at the moment.

This is the place to go for the 410 sprints…read more Great track great cars tons of track action. In the past few years I have been to all the dirt tracks surrounding the Baltimore area and Lincoln stands well above the rest. The stands are all in great condition, you don't feel like you might need a tetanus shot by the end of the evening. Great sight lines everywhere. You can even watch from the infield. The crowd is great. Enthusiastic and well behaved. I have never seen any public drunkenness or fighting. Concessions are pretty average. Good prices, good quality. I mean you are going here for the races, not the dining experience. Temper your expectations and the food won't disappoint. The fan experience is great. Many drivers sell their tee shirts. There is a jumbo tron for replays. A leader board so you can track your favorite driver during the on track mayhem. If I have two complaints it is the restrooms are port-a-potties, and kinda nasty permanent restrooms. I mean when ya gotta go it's there for you, but sensitive people and germophobes will be unhappy. It is what it is. Parking is pretty messy and chaotic. I would love to see some signs or something to help remember where I parked or attendants to guide people in and keep things orderly. Surprisingly getting out is very easy and quick. Finally bring an extra five bucks in cash for the 50/50 raffle. The payout is usually pretty decent.

Always excitement here on Saturday nights! Food is…read morereasonably priced and very tasty! The dirt flying around from the cars speeding by adds flavor! We've been going here for years and love the 1/2 mile dirt track!

What a great time this place is. If you like dirt track racing, come here on just about any given…read moreSaturday night from May through October. The racing usually starts around 7PM and the few times I've been there, usually ends in the neighborhood of 11PM. There are generally several classes of cars racing throughout the night, with the longer feature races being later in the evening. If you don't make it there by 7PM, you will just miss some of the early qualifying races. Being a dirt track, expect to get dirty. Everything you bring with you, including yourself, will be covered in a layer of dirt by the end of the night. Ear plugs are not a bad idea either, as some of the races are pretty loud. Another thing you should bring is beer. You are allowed to bring your own in(as long as it is not bottles), and it makes the people watching much more entertaining. You see all kinds here, but there is definitely an abundance of mullets, rat tails, breast tattoos, and confederate flag tattoos. The bathrooms probably smell just as bad as any porta potty I've ever been in, and I've been in some nasty ones. There is a snack bar that has some okay food, but obviously nothing gourmet. If you have even the slightest interest in car racing or enjoy drinking beer and people watching, this place is some good and cheap entertainment. A ticket to the stands is only $12. It's definitely not the classiest place in town, but fun either way.

She loves all the access you have to the drivers and cars. As for the facility l, it's a top notch dirt track in Pennsylvania. You have many food and drink options for purchase (alcohol is not for sale) or you can bring your own. The infield is huge with two entrances. One is a bridge on the back stretch the other is a tunnel in the front. Parking is abundant and getting out was a breeze. Ear Pro is highly recommended if you attend. The seating is just bench seating. So I recommend bringing a cushion if your not used to that. We did go to the concession and get a couple burgers and hotdogs which were basic but good. They have plenty of other food options also. My wife picked a driver based off his hauler decals and wanted to get a tee shirt. When she found one she liked I asked her "don't you think it would be cool if he signed it?" She said yes and I told her "well he's right there". Brock Zearfoss was so polite and talked to my wife and I like he knew us forever. He signed her shirt and when she told her it was her first dirt race he told her "you'll love it and you'll definitely be back". She did in fact love it and can't wait to go again.

McBrewBid Motoplex is the smaller sibling of BAPS Motor Speedway, but don't let the size fool you…read morethis little track has been stepping up in a big way. Ryan races here in the PA Micro Midget 500 class, and we've watched the track keep improving every season. They've added metal bleachers that make a huge difference for spectators (finally, a place to sit where you can actually see what's happening). The big screen is another major upgrade live action, running order, replays... yes please. Makes it feel much more polished and fan-friendly. The racing surface itself has gotten noticeably better. You can tell they're actively working to make it more "racy," and most nights the track puts on a good show. They also tend to draw a solid field of cars, which always makes for fun heats and mains. A few honest heads-ups: * Parking is not the best, especially if you don't have a reserved spot. Be prepared to park your trailer a little farther out. * Bring a golf cart or four-wheeler if you can trust me, it makes the day a thousand times easier. * Pits can get tight on busy nights, but that's pretty normal for micro tracks. Entry fees are on par with everywhere else and the payouts are fair, which racers appreciate. The show itself moves fast and is usually organized well you're not sitting around forever waiting for your class to get called. Overall? It's a good track that's getting better and better. You can tell they care. We always have a good time there, and with the upgrades they've made, it's becoming one of the stronger micro tracks in the area.

Lots of improvement has been made to the speedway over the years. In 2023 the World of Outlaws…read moresprint cars made the return to BAPS. Show was great and traffic control on hand at the end of the show. To sum it up in one word. Kuddos (assuming that's a word).
