This is a terrific event. It was a fun DE, but since it changed last year to a tick-tock open track event it's a 10/10. Signed up and coming down with a few buddies. Close enough to the Club Race in June that I may even remember whatever tweaks I learn.

One Day Option?
but....since it's on Mon/Tues, a working schlep like myself has to weigh the pros and cons. Is a one-day registration option available?

Bump for this event. Registration is surprisingly light for this one. I ran with this group at their event last year and it was terrific. It's exactly what every advanced driver wants:
VIR is a long haul for many of us but this is an event that makes it worthwhile.
- More track time than you can use
- No-nonsense event organizers that know their stuff
- A small group of experienced and courteous drivers to run with
- Top shelf professional drivers/coaches offering advice
- Excellent value
- Virginia in April - hopefully 70's and sunny!

I went
Got 8 laps in before my unused but still present a/c compressor seized, threw off the serpentine belt, and ended my event. 1500 miles round trip tow.
But I still got to sit in Peter's first presentation, which was wonderful.
Peter, you continue to amaze me with your contributions to our learning. Thank you, sir

Thank you, Rick! It was great to see the Northeast crowd turnout and we did have some very nice weather. Sorry for your misfortune and hope your travels were safe.

Trip home went fine, except for the flat trailer tire this morning. But I noticed it before leaving the hotel in PA and changed it with one of my 2 spares.
Car is already in the shop at SST and the a/c delete kit is due in tomorrow.
I will definitely return to this event next year.
