NASA OH/IN will be using the same course used by Grand-Am and CART when they visit Mid Ohio April 4-6. This course leaves out the club chicane after turn one, making for the addition of another straight at Mid Ohio. This makes for another passing zone for racers and HPDE drivers. Drive the same course as the Pros!

Yay, more speed for me to wreck! j/k

 

Great news! I don't know haw many times I've been on that track (7 weekends, 9 races I think) but I've never done the Pro Course! Why must I procrastinate so and not send in my registration yet?

Gosh I would LOVE to go to the MWHC race there, but looks like funds are the issue, and time... Same reason I am not going to CMP

 

Will MWHC be doing standing starts like ECHC? Is that a NASA thing or a H-C thing?

 

It's a NASA thing. BUT - in VA it is usually up to the indivivual race groups (I think rolling starts is the default, but groups have asked to do standing starts). ECHC has always done standing start for the spectator's benefit and I assume national HC will continue that.

I've done both and don't have a preference. Rolling starts carry more speed into T1. Standing starts have more potential for screw ups at the line.
