    Default gingerman video

    If I stand corrected I beleive this video is where we will be running our contours it really gives me a great view of the track from a cockpit view. It makes me excited to know we are going to get to run this track. I will definitly get some brakes before then..........lol

    Gingerman is a great track. My region hosts the first road race of the season there and ive worked one of the turns for 2 yrs now. I get to drive out to my station at a "safe speed". on the last stretch after turn 10 from a dead stop i got my 3L up to 90 before slowing to go into the pits. the turn on 6 iirc is a bit tricky b/c the turn gets progressivnly tighter.

    If you live close they have open track days during the week http://www.gingermanraceway.com/

    When is this event?

    I've driven and instructed at driving events at Gingerman since it opened.

    I even raced there for a few years when I had a competition license.

    It's a good track for new drivers since it's very safe if you go "off". There is lots of room, few guard rails and no trees or ditches to hit. As a venue for wheel-to-wheel racing it leaves me a bit cold. Blackhawk Farms, Road America, Mid Ohio, IRP, and a number of other tracks are better for racing IMO.

    One other thing. Motels near the track are expensive! Near or over $100 per night in season. Prices come down aquite a bit if you stay in St. Joseph or Benton Harbor, MI. which are 30 miles away.
