Default Mid-Ohio help

Well thanks to my crazy buddies from Florida who are doing a mancation that has them doing 5 tracks in 10 days. I'm getting a chance to knock off one of the tracks on my bucket list, mid-Ohio. The tracks they are doing will be autobahn, road America, mosport, mid Ohio, and ending with Watkins glen. The thread can be found in the 997 gt2/3 section. Since the misses has allowed me to make one of these and possibly Watkins glen if I'm a good boy
I'm trying to see some of the in car footage you guys have laying around. I also will be blessed with the presence of mr. Veloce raptor himself to help me master the track in 3 days. Haha. We will be there July 15-17th with NASA if anyone else is looking to be there. Hope to meet some rennlisters while I'm up there

Yea we've worked together before, so I knew who to call to help on this one. I knew he would be sitting on the couch cleaning assault rifles, with nothing else to do. Lmao

He's really getting into that these days!

Just hope he doesn't get confused on where he is and what he's doing...

Mid Ohio has two primary configurations, the pro course, and the club course. Both of the videos above are on the pro course. The club course has a chicane between turn 1 and the Keyhole. Most car clubs run the club course, but NASA tends to alternate. What event are you attending?

Here's a video of the club course:

Good to know, aeshultz. I'm running with NASA that weekend.

Dave, this is normally when we are on vacation under normal circumstances. I won't be worried until middle of august if we're not back at work yet

NASA ran the club course at their April event, so I suspect the July event will be on the pro course.
