Drive down on the Friday morning - get to the track by Noon or so - still catch all the action and only have to take one day off work..

Don't want to change the Mid Ohio tradition, but worth thinking about...

Petit next year is three weeks later! Could be a bit chilly ... we gotta crank up the CO2 output!

Anyone interested in going to Sebring or Petit Le Mans next year?

I for one would love to go to a "different" track, Mosport and MO are the only one's I've experienced.

Plus, this time of year is in-between activities for me, so I'd like to use that "in-between" time

If that is what everyone wants to do, let me know so I can re-arrange the rooms. As of now I have a Thursday arrival and a Sunday Checkout booked at The Buxton.

Some of the scenery through the mountains in Virginia on the way home from Petit Lemans.
Commerce Georgia ( 25 mins from the track ) to Pickering in 15 hrs, glad I had a co-pilot this year.

Is that an emergency escape / run-off for truckers, in case of problems on the downhill/curve?? Kind of looks like it?
