7/6 - 7/8 is Audi Club @ Mid Ohio. It's one of my favorite events of the year.

Do Mid Ohio, Grattan, Waterford Hills and maybe Putnam. Blackhawk is a bit out of the way but not bad (Beloit WI). Do you want to go to an old school track or a country club? Autobahn is a country club- so expect that sort of track (Alan Wilson designed, safe, lots of decreasing radius turns). If you have Road America and Mid Ohio in your crosshairs, barnyard tracks such as Grattan and Blackhawk should be on your list too, but if you're more interested in Autobahn then GingerMan and Putnam Park are closer to what you want.

Mike

Putnam is with OVR PCA who I think has the no GT1 engines without water wetter or repaired fittings.

No, I will try to Roebling and / or Homestead brefore the summer.
FYI, Road America starts on the 7th. 4 days! That's the same date as Mid Ohio.
MVP and PCA combo.

Waterford hills is small, I checked 1:20 laptimes, 1.5 miles in MI.
Grattan looks cool, it's in West Michigan near grand rapids and near gingerman i think.

Definitely try to hit Mid Ohio! I'm biased, but I think it's awesome. Putnam is ok.

Roebling is small too... but it's a white knuckle ride. I'd rather go to an old school, hang-on-for-dear-life track than some of the new ones.

You have to ask yourself- would I rather go to Spa or Bahrain? I think Eau Rouge is way more memorable than any of the new F1 tracks. Makes me weep just thinking about what could have been with Meadowdale Raceway here in Chicagoland.
