These events are well run and have good natured and experienced enthusiasts with a broad range of skill and pace. 1st timers and old-farts all welcome as long as you can conduct yourself and be respectful of others and their property. Feel free to add events, but only if you can vouch that the group is competent and well-organized, please.
*April 14-15 @ Gingerman w/3BallsRacing.com *June 23-24 @ Gingerman w/Great Lakes Lotus Club [event will be posted for registration as the date approaches] *July 28-29 @ Grattan w/3BallsRacing.com *September 8-9 @ Grattan w/3BallsRacing.com *September 22-23 @ Gingerman w/Shelby Cobra Mustang Club *October 13-14 @ Grattan w/Great Lakes Lotus Club [event will be posted for registration as the date approaches] Cheers and see ya at the track.

Come to Mid-Ohio with BMWCCA, Chin Motorsports, or even NASA. While I race with NASA, I'm not a big fan of their HPDE program.
If I get my car in May, as I hope (I have the first order at my dealer), I will have it out at Mid-Ohio for 5 days over Memorial Day weekend while I'm up there coaching

BMWCCA @ Mid-Ohio does have some great HPDE's. If you can add some dates and links, we can change the title to HPDE's in Great Lakes region.

Hey @Ryephile, thanks for the info. Any early info on 2013 events? The 3 balls racing website doesn't show any events for '13.

i'm working on a spreadsheet compiling all these events, although not everyone has posted theirs yet. although i'll note it's pretty chicago centric. so far i have only put autobahn, road america, blackhawk, gingerman, grattan events and autocrosses on it.
