What's the normal cost for each track day? I'm really wanting to try out Pitt, just paying $300 is a bit hefty IMHO. I also buy an elite membership and track day package and each of my days averages out to be about $170 a day. Which is less than a walk up day on pretty much any track besides maybe NC Bike. Yes certs at Mid-O are less expensive, but you can use N2 days for any of the tracks (notice I said tracks, as in multiple) they run. Most of which are far more expensive than $170 a day. As soon as you get onto another track you'll realize how bad Mid-O's surface really is comparatively. 9 minutes ago, blue03636 said: I want to try it, looks fun. On paper it looks fun. It would be fun on a mini, maybe a ninja 250. I rode the 1k on there this year and was in 2-3 gear all day.

I had no problems besides rear end scooting out a bit on keyhole and that awful patch at the end of backstraight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I had no problems besides rear end scooting out a bit on keyhole and that awful patch at the end of backstraight It may be the worse now that Nelsons got a re-pave. I haven't made it north or west so idk about for example Grattan. Nelsons, PIRC, and Summit Main all got repaved within the last year give or take. Nelson having the worst pavement from what I've heard. But now its nice. I'm not saying Mid-O is terrible. There are just other places I'd rather ride right now, places I go to more than once a year that I'd like to continue to get faster at.

Jester_ Posted July 12, 2018 Report Share Posted July 12, 2018 (edited) Grattan is worse than mid ohio for bumps, but not quite as bad with the sealer. But it has a jump so..... Edited July 12, 2018 by Jester_ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bandit Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 For the record, I'll go and do track days at Mid Ohio any time. It's 1:10 away from me, and they allow my slow, crotchety old as in intermediate. Score! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’re not the first to say they like the blue/yellow, so maybe I just have bad taste. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jacobhawkins Posted August 21, 2018 Report Share Posted August 21, 2018 An interesting update. MidOhio is running motorcycle track days the Friday, Saturday, Sunday before Labor Day on Monday. The day will start at 2:30, show up by 1:00 for tech and riders meeting, and end at 8:00 or whenever it get too dark or dewy to run. $170, no late fees, open to all groups. I'm tempted. Thing is though, I bought all my certs last year, so when I go to a day now, it's like it's "free". Might feel weird actually buying one this year.
