I want to again urge that you sign up for Mid Ohio, and if you do think you're going to go, sign up early.

1) it's an away event, so not as many people signup. This is good and bad - it's good from the point of view that the event typically doesn't get oversubscribed; it's bad from the point of view that sometimes there aren't enough instructors to go around. But we usually get an instructor for every student by hook or by crook.

2) It's a spectacular driving track. http://www.midohio.com/track/trackmap.asp. The map probably doesn't do it justice. Maybe the video's better http://www.midohio.com/track/video.asp. There is a back section of the track that's got some blind turns where you never hold the wheel straight for more than a second or so, and it's totally a rhythm thing. It's not a power track; it's a technical track.
