Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course — Local services in Troy Township

Grass, grass, and more grass at this gem of a WORLD CLASS facility on Steam Corners Rd. Originally a Cornfield In Lexington Oh. Ive been coming here for over 20YEARS cuz its just a great place for racing fans. Clean, safe, fair priced, and so much fun. If you want to experience open wheel racing up close, grill out, enjoy general admission open seating, then you gotta come to a race! Freedom galore. You will sit so close. You will take in the smell of the super high-test fuel they use. Load up a cooler of cold drinks or buy them at the concession stand .In all my time ive NOT ONCE witnessed trouble, just classy respectful race fans! Don't wanna sit 20ft from the track in the infamous Thunder Valley feeling the ultra RUSH of power when a World Class driver in a Diablo, Ferrari, Porsche GT, or Indy car flys by you at 150mph during one of the several races then simply remember to park way back in the infield into the shaded area and set up a nice picnic spot for you and your family under the canopy of trees in the infield area. So be smart. If infield parking is not free for your particular race, then spend the extra 10 bucks because it's worth it to park yourself all the way back in the middle of the race instead of having to walk all the way back . Depending on what you enjoy, you can sit in the grandstand or walk all around the track after you have set up your Basecamp .Relax and enjoy on any viewing mound anywhere on the track Don't forget: Spend an extra $10 for a "paddock pass" for the up close to the cars experience cuz who knows who you'll meet down there ie. David Letterman, Mario Andretti, Ashley Judd, and more Hollywood celebs hooked on racing. But in the paddock is so cool as you can watch the mechanics Working on cars up close. This place is an amazing gem in the middle of Ohio and for me was absolutely nothing like what I expected when I got my first invite...

Exciting Road Course in Mid-Ohio, I've been here mostly for NASCAR weekends, though, it's usually supported by other series too throughout the weekends.

Plentiful room to put out your chairs and sit, never have felt like I couldn't find a fantastic view, and ample opportunity to sit on great curves that provide a ton of entertainment.

Grandstands, throughout the track for a bit more of a fee, not necessary, but always available and never super crowded for those that simply want to get to a quick and less crowded seats. I'd recommend, Grand Stands 2, as it's situated on the backstretch with the best curves.

Plenty of portable pots and one decent real restroom, never any issues trying to get in and out of restrooms like many races, and sporting events. Always available.

Refreshments, and merchandise area could be updated and left a little bit to be desired. There's much downtime between events, and the oppurtunity to shop more, or more places to get different types of food and snacks, would certainly help pass the time and provide for more entertainment between practices, qualifying, and races.

Parking is ample, and plentiful, easy to get in and out.

Prices for weekends are extremely agreeable, as well as the season passes, and camping. Plenty of camping surrounding the track, golf cart rentals to get back between sights and track in general.

Overall Mid-Ohio is an awesome gem in Central Ohio countryside, that provides great aggressive road racing, great prices, and easy accessible facilities and refreshments, with all that being said, there is oppurtunity to be had with mid event entertainment, merchandise, and...

Attended the 2021 IMSA race. Overall I've been to Mid-Ohio dozens of times for numerous SCCA and IMSA events. They did a good job directing traffic after the race. Food was incredibly expensive, but to be expected for this type of an event. Lots of gravel roads and the concessions need updated. Minor things around including grand stands need a refresh. Overall the race was good, but it was much better than realized. On spectator hill the have a mini jumbo tron. Yes I just said mini jumbo tron. It is just big enough to see the live broadcast and what is going on. The biggest issue is there are zero clear audible speakers. The mini jumbo tron would be plenty big if we could hear the commentators explains the situation as it happens. Turns out, not only was a close finish due to traffic. But several cars were extremely close on fuel adding to the excitement. All of this unknown to the spectators. It detracted from the overall experience, Mid-Ohio has excellent facilities (especially in the pits) it's a track that deserves IMSA, Indycar, and NASCAR. Yet you can't install real speakers for fans to understand the whole situation of the race. I guarantee half the spectators would not have left with 15min left knowing that the leaders were so close on fuel with an excellent chance for a dramatic ending which we received. Note this 3 star rating is for specifically this event. SCCA events this is not an issue due to low volume spectators. Otherwise it would be a 4...
