OK, I've listened to the glowing, almost passionate praise for Road
America, without retort, for long enough. My silence has come from the
fact that I like the place a helluva lot, too!
But I confess that I have an even greater afterglow for Mid Ohio. The
track is technically more challenging than RA, it is the best place to
spectate in the country, and while it ain't got brats, its got McTrueman's
for breakfast, which will always have a place in my heart...perhaps literally.
And everyone knows that Mid Ohio's in the middle of Ohio, and Ohio's in the
middle of everything! So, its one of the most accessible tracks in the
country, right?
And the esses at Mid Ohio are definitive...much as is the dip at Road
Atlanta, and, umm, well, ok, the kink at Road America. But minute for
minute of driving, I don't know of a track that offers more of a driving
experience than Mid Ohio.
'Nuf said.
