Welcome
We are a group of friends and racers united for one purpose: Promoting nostalgia drag racing in the mid-Atlantic region.
Our members are as varied as their cars. They come from all walks of life, but race as one group. At our races you will find friendship and comradery, instead of cutthroat competition Don’t misunderstand - when two cars pair up at the starting line, the competition is real - each person wants to win - but it ends at the finish line.
Interested in racing with us? Here's a link to our application. Be sure to read our rules before applying for membership! Thanks!

Island Recap
"MANDRA reached the halfway point in our season Sunday, August 6, at Island Dragway's 57th anniversary race. Cyclone Racing was the race sponsor along with an NHRA Wally for the event winner. Twenty-one cars were present with all cars making the first round. Ray Bloom had the bye-run with a 005 reaction time. Great weather and a well-prepared track gave MANDRA members a great race day.
The semi-finals found Bruce Thomas getting a bye run into the finals with Bill Wert pitted against Tony Picone to determine the other finalist. Bill Wert ended the excitement early with a red light. The finals was a close race with Bruce Thomas dialed at 10:50 and Tony Picone dialed at 10.63. An elated Bruce Thomas took home the Wally with a 10.54; Tony Picone ran out with a 10.58.
As I (Merritt Snyder) left the bleachers to go back to the pits, I saw Denise Thomas and Kim Picone walking back to the pits together. They had been at the starting line to watch the race. This comradery is what makes MANDRA such a great group.
Thank you to all attendees; it was a fun race. See everyone at Maple Grove on Sunday, August 20th, for their Glory Days Race with MANDRA's race sponsor Bare Bones Racing."
