Doc1647545523 Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Tim, thanks for posting this reminder and the schedule. Just to avoid misunderstandings, I think I should point out that the actual racing schedule is Saturday 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. weather permitting, and Sunday 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. weather permitting. Although spectators can come on Friday, they should be aware that there won't be any racing that day, only vehicle inspections, a rookie orientation, and slow drives down the track by participants. Also be aware that some grass areas have navigational lights mounted low to the ground; it will cost you $600 for any that you break by driving over them. I'll be heading down Friday late morning if anyone wants to check out the place and the cars while I get the car teched-in and go through my orientation.

MrMeanGreen Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 I'm thinking about it. We should all pile in the Gingermobile since the GN's headers won't be in until Monday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Doc1647545523 Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 Every weekend? Not by a long shot. Here's the Ohio mile 2012 schedule: April 28-29 Hot Rod Magazine Top Speed Challenge June 2-3 (Sponsor to be announced) July 7-8 (Sponsor to be announced) Sept 29-30 Throttle Nation Top Speed Challenge This is the link to more details: http://www.ecta-lsr.com/ Here are CR threads with further discussion: http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=96408&highlight=ohio+mile http://www.columbusracing.com/forums/showthread.php?t=100845&highlight=ohio+mile To answer your specific question, No, you can show up Saturday, tech Saturday, go to the driver's meeting, and run on Saturday. However, you need to be a paid participant, and those spots sold out months ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tim Davis Posted April 27, 2012 Author Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 From the looks of the local restaurants this evening, some of the participants are already hitting town. Several car haulers at the local hotels. Small town so it's obvious when something out of the ordinary is going on. The local restaurants and hotels can definately use the business. Hopefully the weather cooperates. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
