Yea, I'll go with saying that Raceway Park in Old Bridge/Englishtown NJ is your best bet. They're pretty "newb" friendly on Friday nights.

I don't know if the prices will be rasing this season but last season it was $26 to race on a wednesday night $12 to spectate

Friday nights were $20 to race and $10 to spectate.

You will need a DOT approved helmet and if you don't have one, you can rent from them for $3. If you are under 18 you will need a permission slip signed by your parents.

Well I know last time I went there, they asked me these questions:

Upgraded supercharger/turbo?
Will you run faster than 13.99

There was an orange balt there with a 2.5 pulley (albert). He said he had that pulley and bolt ons when they asked him if he had an upgraded supercharger and they wouldn't let him run without his own helmet and because he'd break 13.99 w/o the jacket...unless they are talking about 13.99 with the helmet.....I said no to both and ran mid 13's all night lol

you are talking about Raceway Park right?

For sure, you need a helmet no matter what. It's NJ LAW. My fiance worked there.
