This event is presented by both the Detroit & Saginaw Valley Regions of the SCCA.
This event for "Regional" points will count as 2 events. One for Saturday & one for Sunday.
For the GLSS, this will be three courses combined time in 2 days for trophies, but I believe that each race will count as seperate GLSS points. This event is the SVR's GLSS event for 2012 even though we are co-hosting.
Start off your Saturday at Oscoda with not one, but two courses. We will be grilling out while the course redesign takes place. Since this is an Oscoda event, we will have the dogs, burgers and beverages for you.
After lunch & refreshments the racing resumes on the afternoon course.
On Sunday there will be a third course but only one racing session.
This event will have a minimum of 12 runs over the two days. If 12 + runs aren't enough for you, make it a 3 day weekend & attend our Friday Test N Tune. Work a 1 - 2 hour shift & then play all day.

I am actually flying out Saturday for work, but I am planning on going to the test and tune Friday to get some much needed seat time in the beast before nationals. I can help with the setup and the test and tune on Friday. DFL Racing INC.
I'll be there to put 40+ runs on the kart, maybe more. 0.002 seconds is an ass-whoopin'

I'm in. Now which cheap motel close to Wurtsmith should I choose? This is my first time going to Oscoda... Eric Penn - 2011 Ford Fiesta Solo Safety Steward Flagging and Communications 2013-14 Board Member 2012 Great Lakes Solo Series 1st place STF 2012 Detroit Region SCCA Solo Series 1st place STF
Lake Trail Resort is my personal favorite, but its probably not the cheapest (~$80 per night). Nice, breakfast included and might be the closest to the event site. 0.002 seconds is an ass-whoopin'

Err, this might seem like a silly question to the veterans, but for total noobs like myself...
Where exactly at the Air Force Base is the event held? I don't want to drive on to the runway and get impounded for several years in Cuba. 2013 Solo: 2013 VW GTI (RTF TGS) 2012 Solo: 2004 BMW 330Ci (RTR TDS) SOLD

This is the flyer from the last event. It has a decent map. http://www.svr-scca.com/e107/e107_files/public/oscoda-location-map-web.jpg 1991 CRX EP #58
There's also the Northern Traveler (across the street from Lake Trail). I used to stay there years ago when I used to bring our dogs. Redwood Lodge is south of town, further than the others. If you get a room in the new section (well, it's now probably 15 years old), they're pretty good.
