Since the new series isn't coming to Mid-Ohio I've picked a few possible events and put them on my calendar. VIR, Barber and Road America top the list. Then maybe the Indy or Texas GP or possibly Laguna if I make a trip to LA and go with my brother there.

Sucks that they aren't coming to Mid-Ohio and some of us were discussing that after the bike show. My gut reaction is either due to keeping a small number of races, or that the Mid-Ohio wasn't interested or willing to do what they were asked. Heck they don't even have an event schedule up for 2015, and without the big motorcycle road racing and no more Indy or even sports cars they're down to vintage sports cars and bikes, and some tuner type or very low level series.

Mid-Ohio's biggest single event is Motorcycle Vintage Days although they seem willing to send that one down the toilet with the others they've run into the ground.  Ticket prices and booth rentals are always going up so it appears they are trying to reap too much from their cash cow.
