IT-Miata Shootout @ Mid-Ohio June 8-10 *Grand-Am Weekend*

Might get a couple of the new ITC guys using it for the track time. As a points race it doesn't really work for us because it is only a single race (when it could be at least a double, or even better a triple IMO), and with so many faster classes the odds of ITC actually getting to race together is fairly slim....

I appreciate the info. Thanks! Making it a points event (yea - just a single) was done to 'help' make it attractive to the ITC folks who told me they didn't come last year due to no points being available.

The # of classes will not have an impact on classes running together. Just like any other regional weekend, there will be backmarkers. But putting them behind you shouldn't be an issue.

This will be a great weekend!! We tried to adjust (points event and inviting ITR) to draw a full field. We will see how it turns out.

28 cars registered over 5 weeks out - I think it's shaping up rather nicely.

What's it like in the paddock? Would there be room for a motorhome, truck, trailer and racecar or would we be limited on the number of vehicles per registered car?

Should be plenty of space for those things. Unlike a regular weekend, there is limited space for 'other' vehicles. We have a specific paddock area blocked off for us, But there is PLENTY of parking (close) for visitors/friends/family/crew...

What about giant, can-be-seen-from-space, "oh look, magneseum!" fire pits?

And after my whining, I went ahead and registered. And as Scott pointed out, Friday can be a real blowout since we don't have to be on track Saturday until late afternoon.

I know you will have a blast!! (And I definately didn't think you were whining - I appreciate the honest feedback and recommendations.) Yea - Friday evening should be a 'great' time!!! There will be plenty of beer and probably even a good bit of food and campfire!
