    Look under MVSCC in the club section of this site. Also look up NASA PRO RACING and look at the Great Lakes region which has events at Mid Ohio and Putnum Park. Also Cincinnati SCCA puts on events in Northern KY. Also the new road course at the KY Speedway will be having events. Dont know what groups are going to be putting on events there. Nice car!!!

    I used to go to Gravelrama in Cleves, Ohio. Lots of local folks there.

    myautoevents.com is your friend, you can run scca at river downs or at ky speedway in sparta. Or you can run cincy auto-x at scarlet oaks, both are a lot of fun, but i stick to scarlet oaks, you tend to get more runs there. Recently a friend of mine has been putting on "drift and time attack events" on a track in camden. It's called G & J kartway, its a kart track wide enough for car use and the time attack event is what i do there. Its a blast. by the end of the day you feel worn out from driving so much. He held 2 events there last year and should have 3 this summer, there is generally only 3-4 people running in time attack, my (civic) and a crx a miata as well as a corolla, so we kind of all went to see whos fastest, there really wasnt any classing but that should change this year. Any questions just ask!

    For autocross, check the SCCA's Kentucky Region (Louisville) http://www.kyscca.com/new/

    or the Central Kentucky Region (Lexington) http://www.ckrscca.org/

    outbrake time attack/drift events i think last year were around 100 dollars, definitely not bad for how much i got to drive.

    The new road course is one exit north on 71 from the speedway.

    Cincy region runs a few autocrosses and maybe some rallycrosses this year. WORSCCA runs a few autocrosses and rallycrosses in the area as well.
