About 180 Raceway:
180 Raceway, formerly MRH is a small, racer owned & operated indoor carpet on-road race track located in Middle River, Maryland about 20 miles northeast of Baltimore. Last season we were able to update to CRC Fasttrak2 “Black” carpet. Pit spacing around the track is ample, but please PM any special requests to me. The nearest airport to 180 Raceway is BWI, & there are several hotel & motel options available within 15-20 minute drive. There are several places to eat within our shopping center, and even more around the area and at White Marsh Mall, only about 15 minutes away that provide excellent dinner options. If you find yourself bored at any time, there is also an Autobahn Indoor Kart track about 20 minutes from 180.

Track Address:
164 Carroll Island Rd. Middle River, MD 21220

Hotel:
Working on getting a reduced rate at a nearby hotel. In the meantime, the following link provides a listing of nearby hotels:


Hotels in the White Marsh area will be the nicest. E.g. Home2, Hampton Inn, Fairfield Inn, Woodspring in no particular order.
