Putnam Park track day pictures

ChrisAW · 05-01-2011, 08:40 PM

My Dad and I went to Putnam Park Indiana over the weekend and did a HPDE that the BMW club put on. Saturday was awesome and the weather couldn't have been better. Today it was rainy and the line was ultra slick.
Putnam is so much better than Gateway's infield. NO WALLS!

This was my first track day in this car and my first track day at Putnam. I had an amazing time and I can't wait to go back.

My dad in his GT3

Thanks Robert for the awesome pictures!

Awesome pics. I was there two weeks ago - great little track with plenty of runoff.

SamS · 05-01-2011, 10:27 PM

Terrific pics! Thanks for sharing.

Nice pics. It is a nice track and a good group that puts on the event... Missed it this go round.

Awesome, I'm going up there this weekend with my 135i.

Once I get my M3 I'll probably plan a trip to Putnam later this summer.

Looks like a great track, and an even better time. Its been so long since I have been out, hopefully I can make it this summer.

Thanks!

We drove from St. Louis to Putnam and needless to say my ride was a little more comfortable.

Thanks for sharing. I would loved to have done a track day with my dad. Putnum is a great track. It's not to overwhelming, you get a lot of laps in a 30 min. session to get your lines figured out. I have been going there since '99. I like to use that track to gauge my cars I have had and the mods I have done to them over the years.
