    Hey guys I'm new to STT. I have been to Putnam before but it was only a day trip as a spectator. This will be my second track day event ( Idid a day a couple weeks ago at the mid ohio school.) Anyway what seems to be the popular place to stay if not camping?

    I've hosted a couple riders. The track is about 30 miles from the house. 45 min or so to get there.
    Don't mind dogs give me a yell.

    The rates are pretty cheap out there.

    Thanks so much for the offer. And i love dogs (i have 3)! Lol. But Im going to get a room and was hoping that there might be a place that alot of the guys stay for some after track hours comradery.

    I am pretty big into offroading with the Hummer club and we usually use a specifc hotel as our base camp after a day on the trails. So i was wondering if STT guys were the in same frame of mind?

    The should be reporting in sooner or later. There is a camp ground west of there I think some stay.
    Plan on being there unless we go back to 95f and 90% humidity.

    Nope, being on a budget my away days have to be planned. Road America was the following weekend.
    That and as a birthday present I bought my son in law, a track day so he could enjoy RA.

    Planning on being there 7/15... did the same Putnam event last year... and planned on doing many more track days since... but budget and scheduling (I work Saturdays) has not allowed...

    I'll be there on Sunday for my first track day after a 1.5 year hiatus... I'll be in the thunderdome group on a ratty looking, new-to-me Fireblade... Probably going slow until I get back in a groove.

    I'll be there Sunday to ride this track for the first time and bringing with me a friend who's only doing his third trackday ever. Should be an awesome time!

    Anyone have any recommendations for hotels near Putnam? Nothing fancy, just need a safe place to stay with my trailer. Thanks!

    I always crash at the Holiday Inn Express in Cloverdale. Decent breakfast, clean rooms, quiet hotel, what's not to like? Other than price...
