Nice seeing you, Karen--had an absolute blast on Friday! A new PB lap for the pro course didn't hurt, either

Kudos to all the organizers and volunteers!

Steve, nice to meet you, and thx for the beer (for which I did nothing).

Thx to Chip and the whole crew for putting on a great event. More people should come to Mid-O, it is truly one of the best race tracks in North America.

Karen - nice to meet you in person

Yes, Chip and the Team did a terrific job! Maybe he actually got to get some sleep last night It was a pretty uneventful weekend (except for Mark) which is a good thing when it comes to racing There was some AMAZING driving and I always enjoy meeting everyone Gary and Matt, keep up the good work

Great weekend! Awesome course. Friendly racers and volunteers. I do not get why this one isn't a premier event each year.

Add me to the first timer DE club. It did not disappoint. Exceeded expectations in every aspect really. Met so many great folks, learned a ton about driving on track and was fortunate enough to have an amazing instructor throughout the course of the weekend. I also have a new found respect for my car as it performed flawlessly the entire event. I look forward to doing it again!!

Big thanks to the organizers. Everything ran like clockwork, at least from my perspective.

I saw your car in the paddock. I really like the color.

Nice seeing you again. I agree that Mid Ohio should be one of the top races in the East. I don't understand why it doesn't get better attendance. Any suggestions about improving racer attendance should be sent to Vicky or Chip. It would help if we could move it a few weeks towards summer, I froze my butt off, but at least it wasn't rainy (much).

Glad to see Dave got you home alright

As we all know, money talks. And so the track will always schedule their largest events first, leaving whatever is leftover for the smaller events like us. Actually this weekend was to be ours, but IMSA is a larger draw. It seems like when we try to schedule in the fall, everyone has already used up their racing budget

A big thanks to all who attended. I hope to see you back next year!

Here’s the last few laps of the enduro after the full course caution.

Chip, the Mini and I had a great time on the Friday lapping day --please DON'T get rid of the DE as has been done elsewhere.....
