Very well organized, very punctual on times ... everything was very well communicated ... the instructors/control riders were very informative ... I couldn't have asked for any better day.

My husband and I were both highly impressed with the availability of rider coaches willing to teach, as we were very happy to learn all that we could.

I just wanted to take a minute to let you know that our recent trip to the Mid-Ohio track was awesome. We had never been to this particular track before, so we weren't sure what to expect. I must say, without a doubt, this was one of the most enjoyable track days. For me, I experienced great kindness from many of the staff members. The staff here were more than accommodating. I have never been allowed to get so close to the track to photograph these events. Your track hospitality was very much noticed and appreciated. We most certainly plan on coming back to this track.

This was my first experience at [Mid-Ohio], and thereby my first experience with the school itself, and I have to say that it was a simply amazing experience. My experience with my instructor for [the track day] was the best I've had yet. The way everything is organized is fantastic, but the time and attention he took in building my confidence and abilities is really what set everything apart. He was patient, enthusiastic, and absurdly knowledgeable about everything on the track, and his personality and positivity were the best I've run into yet. I have a new favorite track, and I just wanted to take a minute to thank you all for the experience.
