Looks like Mid-Ohio's typical event 'friendly' policy is in full effect. They are using the middle and upper paddock for their skidpad event.
They need a new skidpad area.

Last event I was at, they did not even use the middle paddock even though it was blocked off. I'm calling shenanigans.

This was a no choice no option from Mid-Ohio
Last week for our DE We could use the lower and middle paddock but they blocked off the normal road because of the quanitity of people in the skidpad class.
I will say it agan, they need a new skidpad.

Generally yes, but we have 6 instructors who are helping out. If they are new to the track but experienced we are providing lead follow advice. If they are somewhat not up to solo yet we have a few instructors not many, its a case by case thing. Are you thinking about the wife?
If so, she can come buy you stay home.

Do you know if anyone is interested in paying for security to stay inside the track over night? I'm interested to contribute, but can't foot the bill myself. I have a car trailer with living quarters included, so moving the trailer is going to be a real pain. Before I registered, I asked about camping and was told that it was allowed.
If I knew I was going to have to move outside the gate every night, I would not have resistered.

Without security, they aren't going to have anyone coming around to make sure that your trailer is empty

I stayed last year too. I don't think it is a big deal or at least it has not been in the past. There was a big stink and threats from Mid-Ohio two years ago but nothing ever came from it. Just don't be out driving the golf cart around at midnight after a few cocktails and I'd think you'd be okay.

I'll stop by some time during the weekend. Not sure how much I will get to hang around.
Ed, you make me feel bad for giving up because the only thing stopping me is the motor and tranny on the garage floor waiting to go back in the car.
