Ozark International Raceway. It really should be on your tracklist!! It is 3.8 miles of an Ozark roller coaster ride that is a fast, fun, and challenging track for any racer.

No affiliation, but I did like his lines...
Frank, I am happy to give you a ride around for a "recon lap" in a 997 if you can make a trip to the Ozarks!

Wow! Nurburgring comes to mind. It would probably take me all day to get around that track just once.

I thought exactly the same thing when I first saw some laps at OIR.

Gonna get out there this season regardless for a 3 day DE to learn the track and try to actually “drive” it well by day 3.

Maybe see you out there….

The Missouri Ring…

Yes, I've done both and you nailed it. Ozark International Ring....
Most tracks have 1-3 hairy corners, RA-the kink ect. at OIR its about 17 out of 19....

Amazing track in beautiful country with lake of the ozarks right next door. If you have any rubbing or compression issues, I highly suggest you raise/trim/otherwise modify prior to coming.

Nothing like the rollercoaster to get her fully compressedddddd. I will be there most likely.

Oh, and the views from the golf cart trails are rediculous. Rent one.

I've raced there twice -- Never felt lost -- but its is a major pucker factor track -- and very mentally and physically tiring to drive beyond 7 or 8/10's.

Just an update guys If you are looking at the PCA club racing schedule posted on their website, they have "Ozark raceway" in rogersville mo listed. This is not correct. The correct venue is Ozarks (plural) International Raceway in Gravois Mills, MO. The one currently listed is an old drag strip and a few hours from the correct location. I assume they will get it amended soon.

Never lost? You've got one hell of a sense of direction. It took our endurance team three sessions or more to know which turns were coming next. I'll suggest that it's a beast of a track with a ton of blind corners and elevation changes that will never be appreciated on video. I actually had to take a Bonine to keep from getting motions sickness. I've never had to do that on any other track in my 13 years of racing.
