Directions and Parking  
Budds Creek is located approximately 1½ hours from Baltimore, 1 hour from downtown Washington, D.C. and approximately 1½ hours from Richmond, VA directly off Maryland Highway 234 in scenic Southern Maryland. For amateur race dates, traffic has never been a problem and all routes are always clear. Our Pro-National Sunday event brings approximately 20,000 spectators and some minor traffic delays can be expected.

Alternate routes: There are several alternate routes that may provide you with a shorter entry or exit from the track. Generally these routes are much faster and have been used by local spectators for years.

* Option 1 from the North, turn left on Maryland Highway 5 South out of Waldorf, MD. Continue straight on Highway 5 for 16 miles to Maryland Highway 236. Turn right on to 236 for 6 miles until it ends at Maryland Highway 234. Turn right on to 234 and the track is 1/8 th of a mile on the left. Please use caution for Amish carriages on 236.

Option 2 from the North, using U.S. Highway 301, turn left onto Maryland Highway 6 at LaPlata. Travel 8 miles to Trinity Church Road, turn right and travel 6 miles to the end of the road at Maryland Highway 234. Turn left and travel 1 mile, the track will be on the right. This is the least used and fastest way to get to highway 301 after the race.
