So when is a good day to run up to the Mineral Wells Airport in my Miata track car?
Whatever day you rent the site. Typically, its only available on weekends, since there are some companies adjacent to the site that don't like racing during their workday.
Otherwise, wait until there is an autocross or time trial event scheduled there. The Calendar on this site can tell you when.
Thank you!
Or take your track car to real track like Eagles Canyon or Motorsports Ranch. :burnrubr:

The Porsche Club of America will have a time trial there in late September and a few more this year. These are also on www.dfwautocross.com.
Other than that, it is only drifters that use the place.
