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!

Recap of Cecil County
"Twenty-six MANDRA cars showed up at Cecil County Dragway on Saturday, September 15 to compete in the D&M Engineering and Thomas Racing sponsored event. Bud Poust had low reaction time, but due to the even field, did not get a bye-run first round. Semi-final action had Bob English facing Gary Conte with Gary taking the win. The other semi-final pairing had Randy Campbell and Chris Righetti running each other, with Chris taking the win. The final race of the day was Gary up against Chris. Gary had brake problems and could not make the final round, giving Chris the bye-run for his second eliminator win of the year. This win also moved Chris back into first place in the points chase. Freels Racing sponsored an award for low-reaction time in eliminations which went to Marc English who had a .003 light in the second round. Congratulations to all our winners and thanks to Dick DeMott (D&M Engineering) and Bruce and Denise Thomas (Thomas Racing) for sponsoring the event.
FYI -- the Island race (sponsored by AKL Racing and the "Wally" sponsored by Cyclone Racing) has been rescheduled and confirmed for Saturday, October 6. Our next race is Sunday, September 30 at South Mountain. It is also the make-up for their Glory Days event of which Ray Bloom is their event poster boy! R&A Racing is the sponsor for the MANDRA event.
Looking ahead -- make plans now for the annual club picnic at Cecil County on October 13 and the awards banquet on November 3. Deadline for reservations for the banquet is October 17.
Ballots for special awards to be given at the banquet will be available at the next three events. All members may vote for "Favorite Car", "Sportsman of the Year", "Team Spirit Award", "Hard-luck Award". We also recognize the low-ET of year and "MANDRA Rookie of the Year".
Updated points are attached as well as the banquet invitation once again."
See you soon,
Randy
