Default Mid Ohio

Is there any good set of track notes out there for Mid Ohio? I've seen all the videos and stuff for the track but it would also be good to have a nice description of each section of the track. I've never been to Mid Ohio and going to be showing up for the May club race.

Come and join NNJR the weekend before the race . . . nothing is better than learning the track first hand.

Arlene is right AND they put on a good event. Lots of track time.

The mid-ohio school puts out a great video that goes over every section of the track in huge detail. I haven't seen anything on the net that is quite as descriptive as that video. If you are looking for more information than that, the best thing to do would be to actually drive on the track.

Jonathan,

I have the video and would highly recommend it - it's well worth the $20.

Johnathan:

My first time at Mid-Ohio was in a club race too back in 97.

You'll be able to figure it out in race practices but I think you will enjoy your race weekend better if you have driven it before the race.

Well since there is no way I can make it to the race track before the race weekend I need to learn as much as I can about the track before I actually get there. I hear Mid Ohio is like Road Atlanta.

Greg - I'd really appreciate it if you could fax it to me at 317.663.0783.

What was the news on your engine? I was really sad to see your situation at Road Atlanta.

Best,

Rick

Gregg,

I'm going to Mid-Ohio for the first time at the end of this month. Would you be willing to fax the school book to me, also? 215-735-3366.

Are there garages or someplace to leave wheels and tires and other stuff over night?

Thank you.
Richard
