The Ohio Auto-X and Track Event chat thread

So I heard that this winter was particularly hard on Nelson Ledges and that they were thinking about closing, but then I've been hearing that Nelson "might close" ever since I started doing track events 6 years ago!

But, it looks like it really happened! http://www.nelsonledges.com/NNwhatsNewDetail.aspx?newsId=139

I guess that explains the "save Nelson" stuff that is going on all over the interwebz.

Jess knows a lot about what had happened. Maybe she can chime in with what she knows.
 
I heard that debris from the track hit a few riders (asphalt/concrete) this past weekend. Hopefully, maybe some one can come in and make some improvements to the facility. Guardrails, a smoother racing surface......

I heard that also. But they've had problems with the surface coming apart for years! The last event I went to there they patched a huge hole in the carousel during the lunch break. Must be really bad if they finally had to close the track.
 
Just wanted to put this out there, that I will be meeting with Autointerests and the guys from Smokey's Dyno in regards to the Labor Day HPDE, tonight @ 6:30. If there is anything that you want me to convey in regards to the event, PM or post it and I will relay the message.

I demand to be allowed to drive for free.
 
Oh really? What kind of tires? I'm going to be looking for some 245/40-17 sticky summer tires for auto-x/track after the July 7th event and when I get my quarterly bonus.
