    Does Mid-Ohio provide electricity outlets for tire warmers for a

    fee? I know VIR has outlets through out the pit area that you could run you're warmers from, Or should I look into buying a generator?

    Gratten too?

    Thanks for any help.

    I believe mid-ohio sells their power. you get a tag and can plug into the poles throughout the paddocks (at least that's how it works when you race there)



    grattan only has power in the garages (and i don't recall how much it is to rent a garage...never rented).



    gingerman doesn't have power in the main paddock area either.



    someone may correct me....cause i don't pay attention to it much since i always bring a generator (a quiet honda one by the way)

    Jig,

    Gingerman does have power in the paddock, I remember tapping into it last time I was there, two years ago, parked down by the hot pit entrance.

    Last year, garages were $30 a day at Grattan.



    it's well worth it to get a generator. check out the Hondas & Yamahas. the hondas are about $1k for the 2000 Watt model, I believe that the Yamahas are a bit cheaper. both are quite quiet.
