Houston
Motorsports Park, one of the fastest 1/8 mile all concrete
dragstrips in the country, with speeds over 190 mph,
big burnouts and huge wheelstands at almost every event.
Witness supercharged, nitrous breathing, and/or turbo
powered machines with well over 2500 horsepower at about
any special event! The current track record, 3.717 @ 199MPH is held by Frankie "MADMAN" Taylor in his 2005 Corvette Outlaw Pro Mod.
The
entire track, return road, and safety walls are concrete.
It features 2 turn off roads, plus state of the art
timing and scoring equipment. The spectator area is
20 feet above the track surface, enabling you to view
from the burnout box to finish line and entire shutdown
area.
This
facility has been built adjacent to HMP's NASCAR Oval Track,
which has achieved motorsports industry acclaim as America’s
premier 3/8 mile high banked asphalt oval short track.
The oval track can also be utilized as an area for drifiting, car shows,
street rodders, vendor booths, swap meets, concerts,
and monster trucks, etc.
This
complex is situated in a park like setting inside Beltway
8 on the North East side of Houston, only 20 minutes
from downtown and 20 minutes from Bush Intercontinental
Airport. HMP is sure to bring memorable excitement and
big smiles to children and adults alike.
The owners share the concerns of the City of Houston,
H.P.D., Harris County Law Enforcement Agencies, and
many other concerned citizens about the negative impact
of illegal street racing in Houston.
Our
goal is to create an attractive, safe and controlled
venue, where we can encourage street racers to “Do
it on the strip, not on the streets.”

Street
racing is not drag racing
THE PALACE OF POWER
HMP
is more than just a place to race, it’s a great
meeting place,
a weekly social gathering with rumbling motors and spinning
tires
as part of the ambiance … It’s a part of
the community.
