The Ohio Random Thread... aka We Should Probably Be Working
- Thread starter THE Phen
- Start date
It's on a Monday because Mid-Ohio wouldn't even consider a new group for a weekendAND it's way cheaper on a weekday.
Yeah, Mid-Ohio has had the same groups on the same weekends for the last 4 years that I've been doing track events unless for some reason a major spectator event bumps it.
Jess, what car do you track?
This. Because there's always a chance that you WILL write it off. Everyone tries to win the Track Day World Championship at some point
I will have to ask him about the after-date payment.
WillD, I tracked my 98 neon at Gingerman, sold it, got the 2. Tracked the 2 at Nelson 100% stock except the rear torsion bar, then Gingerman with K1s/star specs, then Nelson again with 15x9 and 225/45 for S&G. I took the gutted 90 Miata to Nelson this past year, first time on track in a miata. Stance coilovers, rollbar, stock wheels and falken tires.
I also took my 01 neon R/T out to Nelson (my very first experience on track).
This year I'll take the Smart out at least once, the rest I hope to have the Miata running.

Yeah.... I should probably ask about that. I don't think Nelson would care but Mid-O/Gingerman might lol
Likewise! It'll be fun to finally do a day where it's not 90% Porsches
Funny you say that. I have a picture of the 2, leaves stuck in the grille, wide tires, with 2 Porsches in the background. Seemed like the 911 guys didn't want to take any chances on the carousel, lol.
The carousel is a scary place, so I don't necessarily blame them. Nelson was made for cars with no HP and good handling I think. I have no problem keeping up with the big HP cars there.

hell, I almost passed a Ford Lightning with my 3 last time I was there
You do realize it's the monday before Grand-Am weekend at Mid-Ohio. With that being said, I still would like to go, not sure if I'll get the time-off since I'm taking that Friday and who knows what car I'll be driving. I'm not willing to take the monte carlo on the track and suck all joy of driving out of me. It's a sad excuse for an SS badge.
^lol. I have a autoX the Sunday right before, then the test & tune @ Mid-Ohio, and then Grand-Am at Mid-Ohio the next weekend. IT'S GOING TO BE F*^$&^# AWESOME WEEK!
