Well, that sucks.
I have never been there, but I understand it was nicer than 42.

That's nice to see, but a bit out of my range. Their driving direction say to take I-71 to exit 176. The exit for 224 from I-71 for Dragway 42 is exit 209 -- that means an additional 33 miles. Probably not too far for you, Andy.

I think the exit numbers are by mile marker. 224-209 is only 13 extra miles. It might be fun to try this facility on a Sunday with Test & Tune.

Correct, the exits are numbered by mile marker. The exit for Dragway 42 (Rt 224/I-76) is at Exit 209. The Exit for the new Mansfield facility is at Exit 176. 209-176 = 33 miles.

Rats. Just depends on were you get your numbers from. I need to pay more attention.
Still it might be fun to try them some Sunday.
