Starting the summer each of the last few years, the EMCO Gears Classic presented by KeyBank finds itself in a new spot on the 2011 calendar: closing out both the Mid-Ohio and GRAND-AM Rolex Sports Car Series seasons. The September 16-18 weekend will mark Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course’s first major series season finale since 2006 (Superbike Shootout). Crowning the season’s champions in a series that’s visited the track 10 of the past 11 years is an excellent way to close out Mid-Ohio’s 50th Season of Racing. Other series competing are the Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge, ARCA Truck Series and SCCA Formula Enterprise.
