Mid-Ohio was constructed in 1962 on a couple hundred acres of rolling hills near Lexington, Ohio, by Les Griebling, a successful local farmer who personally drove the road grader that laid out the original course. The track cost a piddling $250,000 to build, including the land, mostly because Griebling put in so much sweat equity. The first event w...
A long, 90-degree left coming off the pit straight, this is the fastest turn on the track. Approach from the right and you’ll only need light braking—or just a lift in some formula cars. Turn in after the abutment for the bridge passing over the track and apex about three-quarters of the way around the curb that separates the racing surface from th...
In the pro configuration, it’s a straight run from the Turn 1 exit to the Keyhole, which consists of two 90-degree rights. While it is possible to make one single turn out of the Keyhole with a late apex in the second right, most drivers treat it as a double-apex corner. Either way, brake hard before the crest near the first apex, while you have go...
This right-hand kink is almost always taken flat in the dry, but can be slippery in the rain and might require a lift.
You arrive at Turn 4 with lots of speed (Indy cars come in at about 180 mph); brake heavily as you enter this right-hander from the left. There’s a lot of camber running the full width of the track, so you have some flexibility for your line, which makes this a great corner for passing.
This longish left-hander goes up, over, and down a steep hill. Enter from the left, where the exit of Turn 4 placed you, and simply apex at the crest of the hill. Once the car is settled after the crest, you can accelerate toward 6 while steering left. Attempt to keep too far to the left and your car will likely get unsettled, opening you up to bei...
These three corners are linked, so the correct line is critical. A little trail-braking will help plant your car’s front end and point it toward the apex on the right near the end of the curbing. But the key here, as in 5, is not to track out too far on the exit. Stay about a car’s width from the left edge of the track and you’ll be well set up for...
There’s not enough distance from the exit of 8 to get all the way to the left and parallel to the track edge before you have to start braking for 9. The solution is to go left but forget about getting parallel. This stretches the 90-degree turn into a 95-degree one, but at least you get to brake in a straight line with a settled car. Turn 9 climbs ...
A fast, flat bend to the right, and then it’s best to stay to the right coming out to help your entrance into 11.
Turn 11 is a fast, off-camber left-hander. A tap of the brakes will help you stick close to the inside curbing. The key is to come out of 11 on a straight line so that you can brake hard going into Turn 12, the Carousel. Treat the Carousel as a double-apex corner, with the first apex at the small crest, which requires you to ease your braking as yo...
