    2012 Midwest Track Dates and Invitation

    2012 MVP Track Time Midwest Schedule


    Good Evening Fellow Flat Landers:

    I hope this finds all of you in good spirits. MVP Track Time (www.MVPTrackTime.com) is extremely excited to announce our expanded 2012 Midwest track event schedule.

    Revise your 2012 track schedule, as we've added a few new dates for your driving pleasure, notably Heartland Park in Topeka, Kansas and a second weekend at Road America in July (think cool Wisconsin in mid-Summer). Keep an eye on our web site for updates as the 2012 progresses.

    MVP Track Time’s goal remains the same, to bring you great value with more actual track time at each event for less money. Our three run group (Novice, Intermediate and Advanced) format allows us to maximize actual time driving on the track, keeping paddock time to a minimum.

    Below you will find our 2012 schedule, subject to possible revision as the year progresses.

    April 14 – 15: Putnam Park (Greencastle, IN.) – 6th Annual “Tax-Freedom Track Weekend”

    May 12-13: Heartland Park (Topeka, KS.) – “Yes Toto, We Are In Kansas.”

    June 11: Autobahn Country Club I (Joliet, IL) - Full 3.56 Mile Track

    July 7-8: Road America (Elkhart Lake, WI) – ”Another Weekend At Road America”

    August 6: Autobahn Country Club II (Joliet, IL) - Full 3.56 Mile Track

    October 13 - 14: Road America (Elkhart Lake, WI) – 3rd Annual ”Cheese Heads On Track”

    November 17 – 18: Road Atlanta (Braselton, GA) – 4th Annual “Flyin’ Turkey Trot”


    Registration (on line or mail in) for all our track events is available at:

    As always, we schedule a minimum of six, 20-minute session each day for each run group with qualified instructors available for the Novice run group.

    I hope you’ll join us in 2012 for plenty of on-track excitement with MVP Track Time. All are invited and welcome. Please, don’t hesitate to contact me if you have questions.

    Happy Motoring and I hope to see you at the track in 2012!

    Any track recommendations for someone who has never attended a track day?

    Thank you. Was getting at which days/tracks would be good for novices.

    Well Putnam Park is a GREAT track for novices as there is a lot off room into grass where you aren't going to hurt the car. Trust me, I have 100+ track days at Putnam and have been off almost everywhere except turn 9-10 (which is the one place you will hurt the car). It is also a pretty straightforward track without any tricky technical corners.

    Autobahn also has a lot of runnoff, but there are also alot of place where you can hurt your car. It is more challenging to get the line "right" at Autobahn.

    It really depends on where you live and how far you want to drive.... I am in Cincinnati and smack dab in the middle between Putnam and Mid Ohio. Autobahn I venture to 2-3 times a year at best because it's a 6hr drive vs 2-1/2.

    Keep us updated on your Autobahn visit like you did last time, I would love to see your car in person again. This time I would like to spend more time looking at your splitter and brake cooling system if you don't mind.
