Most liked posts in thread: Mid-Ohio Called - Asked me to renew Season Pass

It is a sad, sad schedule this year....such a fantastic circuit to drive and watch a race, and I just feel like it's in a downward spiral...

 

:cornut: Hey Nathan. You want DaveO and I should show up over there with brass knuckles and shoulder holsters and 'offer them a deal that they can't refuse.':lol::lol::lol::lol:

Don't forget to take one of those "Fiat Blasters" with you, too! A few rounds from THAT should soften those folks up, juuuuuuuuust right! :devil:

 

But last year they even through us out of the pit lane during the Indy car race. That's never happened before.

We got Friday and Saturday tickets for Indy to watch the World Challenge cars. So many of the Grand Am guys switched over to that series.

 

My plans are Fri Sat Vintage plus Fri Sat World Challenge too.

With the money I have saved I may try to get a track day in at Nelson. :arf:

 

Got mine today as well.

 

Yep, I got a call from them today as well almost the exact conversation. I added that we were asked to leave the paddock area last year on Indy weekend. He apologized and told me that they feel they will have a Tudor Series date next year. My response was I would then consider renewing my 2 passes then next year.

 

At least we still have the Vintage Weekend. Other than that it's motorcycles, NASCRAP, and Indy Cars.

 

My "toy" is a heavily modded Honda S2000, and being that Mid-Ohio has a honda racing school they keep the S2000 club very close for all the events and use us for their parade laps. Anyway, I do have to agree that the schedual this year is pretty sad. Our community organizer for the S2k club is very close to one of the higher ups at the track and it seems they are going to take a tremendous hit this year in terms of returning pass holders. Hopefully somthing will change next year... I do have to say that the Indy event this year is going to be pretty important this year since its pretty late in their schedule so it should be a good race to watch. And as far as the paddock goes, the Nationwide series sets those rules not Mid-Ohio and it's a stupid rule. The vintage race is always my favorite, IDK, just my $.02.

 

This should make the World Challenge race a bit more interesting......

Sad to see Randy not driving for them. But they had to get "funded" drivers.

 

Yes I was also sorry to see Randy not in one of those. As we all know it is money not talent these days. Randy is driving in the Continental series this year with Freedom Autosport in an MX5.

 

Just a reminder that pre-sale for all events ends on May 2nd (i'm sure most of you got the same email that I did).

 

Thanks for the reminder Brian!

 

Already got mine.

I never got a call or a survey. I guess I just don't rate with only 3 VIP passes/ year on my account.

 

Bought my tickets a while ago. Guess I'll pick them up at will-call. Wouldn't want them to have spend money on a postage stamp. I did not get a call about VIP passes either, but I think they knew when I had a VIP pass that I was just a poser. :biggrin5:

 

Last year we didn't get our stuff until May if I remember right.

 

Thanks Nick. I'll check the mailbox next month.

 

My Mid-Ohio tickets landed in my post box today. Bet the rest of you guys will have yours in short order.

 

Ditto....the white right hand drive Jeep visited my shack as well.
