Mid Ohio Road Course Labor Day Weekend!

MY organization, Limefest Road Rallies, has partnered with AutoInterests and will be hosting a 3 day event at Mid Ohio Road Course called Carfest.

http://www.carfestusa.com/schedule/

There's track time still available, dyno slots, a car show Saturday morning, DJs, live music after hours and much more! Trying to get a huge BMW turnout!!

If tickets are purchased through this http://www.carfestusa.com/limefest/ link its only $19 general admission for the car show and to see all events. You can't even get general admission on a normal track weekend at that cost!

Mid-Ohio is a GREAT course! I have driven it several times. I will say, be careful if the grass is dew-covered or wet; it will not slow you AT ALL; you will go flying into the gravel trap. If the grass is dry-ish, you can get some extra runoff area.

Be careful around T10 and T11. Also watch out for the paint in the wet.

Great course, have fun!!! Probably one of my favorite tracks in North America.

That's not terrible. I paid $375 this year and last year at Mid Ohio for a full day. The exception was, the track was open all day for as many laps as you want.

Last time I visited Mid Ohio, I fell asleep on the grass. It might have been only Porsches were on the track! LOL!
