The February VIR event is cool because that's the Enduro weekend. I hear it's a 4 hour race this year so it should be interesting to watch.
Whats all involved in getting in on this with NASA? I havn't been brave enough to see how far VIR is from here, but by febuary I will probly be pretty desperate to drive again.

If you're talking about the HPDE (High Performance Driving Event), then you sign up on their web site whenever registration starts. I'm assuming it'll be in early January.

If you're not a NASA member, I think they allow you to try one event before becoming a member. I suggest signing up because it's a great group with lots of events.

If you're talking about the competition school, then you have to have a race prepared car that passes race tech inspection. There's also extra paperwork to fill out for the school and license stuff.

VIR is well worth any distance. (within reason)

hey dean, i thot you bought a ford mustang????

Naw, I just put a Ford sticker on it and called it good.
It is amazing how well the Griggs stuff fits under this.
It's almost done.

Well, after hearing the real scoop about the IN/OH regions true plans, it looks like I will be running a lot more races with you east coast guys than I had originally planned. I don't know if I can swing the entire series but I'll sure give it a try.

Let's just say there has been some "Misrepresentation" on what is going to happen around this area.

I'm planning to run at least one more year of HDPE (schools) before I start racing. There will likely be a "little" move which may affect which series I get to run in. But thanks to Shugg, I am definitely running American Iron (as opposed to SCCA). I wonder if he can get any referrral points. LOL!
