Car was stock but for Pirelli snows on the 20's and a PRL 2.75 b-pipe w/GReddy 3" SP exhaust, going to Mid-Ohio week after exhaust install (went there and back for a Sunday drive of ~250 miles), easily 32+ stock and 34ish easily with exhaust setup.
Best segment right before getting to the track:

Wow, I did not know that it keeps track of MPG but I guess all cars do nowadays (my car is a 1994). What is the MPG after a full track day? My Civic averaged 11mpg at Streets of Willow and 14mpg at Buttonwillow.

haha ... I'll let you know once I start getting in consistantly good laps w/o throwing check engine codes for starving the fuel tank.
Evasive roll bar just got delivered (already called a place about getting it painted the same agean blue), but I've got a few work deadlines this weekend to attend to. :checkered flag:

I checked, but may have missed it. Do we need to have numbers on the cars that are going to track? I read this is just an instructional event, but need to make sure.
TIA!

Numbers will be provided at check-in.
We're sending out the welcome email around Sept 1. Keep an eye out.

All, if you or a friend are on the fence, please register as a guest or driver soon. We want to insure you get an event t-shirt and enough food at the banquet.

I might book at Super 8 just because of the room décor.

For anyone wondering on hotels, I'd book Holiday Inn Express. Thill is my home track and I've generally had good experiences with HIE. It is probably the most expensive as well, but can't put a price on a good nights rest before being on track early the next morning.
If anyone is wondering about food, the best food in town is going to be Casa Ramos. If you desire something a little fancier there are some nicer restaurants about 15 miles further up the 5.

Excellent information, thank you!
