TwiztedRabbit 1,925 Report post Posted November 30, 2020 not likely it feels like mid ohio limited offering days and pricing with out improvements will only get worse before it gets better. sadly they simply "cannot" (this is relative i have NO knowledge of their goals or finances lol) continue to operate as they are with no incentive to ride or drive there without improvements to a quickly degrading track surface(and other factors) in which a number of racing orgs have complained or flat out said they will not return because of. there are just to many quality tracks around anymore that continue to make upgrades to their compounds and tracks. PITT race in my opinion is the best track out there right now. surface , track layout ect. putnam has repaved in the last 3-5 nelson in the last few and even GRATTAN!?!?!?! just redid the first 3 turns with plans to do 4-8 in the next year?! insane! 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RymerC 64 Report post Posted December 1, 2020 Showing $240 for single day, pretty sure it went up? https://midohio.com/courses/motorcycles/performance-track-riding They cancelled like half the days last in 2020, and the track was definitely the worst I can remember it being.

Trackbikez 38 Report post Posted December 1, 2020 Yes, the prices went up. Yes, I still bought my gift certs. Yes, the track needs work. Yes, its seemingly not plausible to stomach an increase in prices after all the COVID cancellations and the 2 wheel orgs fleeing the track. Yet, I would be sad if it wasn't around to ride so I still support it, but it will get harder and harder in the future until many give up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TMC Customs 9 Report post Posted January 30 Does anyone wear an airbag vest? I just picked up a Helite E GP-Air and am hoping it saves my butt if I need it. Not much online about wearing air vests on track. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not much online about wearing air vests on track. I used to wear a hit-air vest and high sided at NJMP with it on. It deployed as it should and I am pretty confident it saved me from significant injury. The downside to them is getting plugged in every session, that got old and led to me wearing it a lot less than I should have been the past couple years. I did upgrade to an alpinestars tech air race for next year however. So if anyone wants to buy a hit-air rs-1 let me know lol. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am super bummed That is a bummer, but good luck with the racing. Nelson and PIRC are about the same distance and even though it's more expensive for PIRC I'm going to spend my money there this year. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

what 1,292 Report post Posted Sunday at 06:01 PM I likely won't be going back to Mid-O again unless I get a cheap cert and am peer pressured. Having to take a vacation day is bad enough but now it's more expensive than NCM or Pitt, no thanks. That said, this should be a fun season. 17-18 wheel horsepower super 125 grom is in the works for racing (baseline of 8 wheel), and have a couple new (to me) tracks on the list I plan to hit this year on the big bike along with all of the NCM days I plan to attend. Busy busy. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TMC Customs 9 Report post Posted 9 hours ago I am signing up for my first WERA event at Nelson Ledges this year (6/6). I have never been to Nelson Ledges so I will probably be signing up for my first N2 track day (6/4) as well. Anyone plan to be there any of those days that I can bounce questions off of?
