Also numerous B&Bs in the area. The "Hive" is the closest (4 minutes from the track).

One of the challenging features of the track is a relative lack of external cues with several blind turn-in points coupled with elevation changes. We did this video a number of years ago just to show the rhythm, linking, and flow of the track from a bird's eye view - to help people develop a mental map.

Note the grass on the outside of turn 2... now paved runoff

To the top.

More Mosport fun in a 6-cup from last year's enduro. Fun starts around 20 min.

I'm trying to do a NE summer racing schedule. Starting at Mid-O in March, then Watkins, VIR, Monticello, Mosport, NJMP and maybe finishing up with Summit Point.

Just need to be able to leave my car / trailer in a strategic spot and have someone change fluids and do repairs between race weekends...

Seems like something Provost could be a good solution for.
