I realize Scion Exposed isn't till june at Mid-Ohio but i love that place and road racing, i'm getting spring fever and driving my wife and kids nuts. Who is( or thought about ) going ?

 

so many ppl got kicked off the track last year

 

Well 1 out of 2 laps isn't bad We had way more fun at the camp site

 

All I know is that two years ago, I was drunk from 9AM to who knows when. The red cups were in full effect, even on the track during the parade lap.

:D

 

Heard so many good things about it so I'll definately like to check it out this year.

 

If you have not been there, you have to go, you get so much free stuff, a ton of cool cars, Grand Am racing, food , and beer. Its my kind of heaven.

 

I can't seem to find a website about this years event, anyone help me out?

 

its still too early to know from scion

but its normally around the this date
"EMCO Gears Classic presented by KeyBank
June 19-21, 2009"

 

So strange question, but is this event fun for someone who doesn't drink? lmao..

 

Yea, there's a lot going on.

 

Ive been to it 3 times and the time I was fairly sober I was bored out of my skull. If by a lot going on Ian means people walking around and looking at cars then yes there is a lot going on. The big draws are seeing a lot of Scions, watching races, taking a few "parade" laps on the track, givaways, and party camping afterwards. Other than that you have to bring your own entertainment.

I like my entertainment 80 proof and mixed with rockstar.

 

and theres like 3 or 4 other car shows going on at the same time

 

its definitely an experience if you've never been to ohio exposed.

Word on the street is it may not make it to Mid-Ohio this year.

They are supposed to be sending out an email to everyone to vote for a new location/venue. There's a strong opinion that it's going to be held at Summit Race Park (old Norwalk dragstrip) in Norwalk.

As usual, they are behind in getting things done/said/accomplished.

 

definitely watching...
where was this held last year? (city)

 

Since August 2005, and every year thereafter in June for the Rolex races...it's been held @ Mid-Ohio which is in Lexington, Ohio. 1 hour from Columbus, about 45 minutes from Ashland.

 

just glad i didn't have to goto bristol raceway park last year and we though midohio was ax'ed last year but it wasn't

 

Bristol wasn't bad, nothing like Mid-Ohio.

Mid-Ohio was on the chopping block, until I made a big about it last year.

This year, I no longer work for a dealership...so I don't have to hear any repercussions from it.

 

Are any of the original Scion champions left in the Cincinatti region to make anything happen?

 

Over the years, the OG Champs (myself included) have moved on from the industry/business.

There's still a few left that have a voice: jsmith @ Toyota of Cincinnati
