Hey Dave, I'm glad I'll get to see you there. Zuzu and I will be pulling in Friday around 3ish to get setup and check out the enduro. Weather looks to be perfect. Are you camping under the trees again?

I will be there. We are going to be testing the BMWs there all weekend for the last race at Road Atlanta. Should be great weather, lots of track time, and lots of fun. Any of you guys that are going to be there stop by the BimmerWorld trailer to say hey.

I signed up for this event and was placed on the Waiting List. Not wanting to risk missing a Sept event I signed up for the 3 day at VIR.

Got a call from Chris on Saturday night offering me a spot.
I really would have perfered to stay near home. 10 min. Gotta love that.

Not sure where I'm going to be yet. I'll have my trailer and the weather won't be too hot. If you like I'll save you a spot next to me?

Same Here..

Referencing the other Thread.. Does anyone know if they will be doing the taste of the track at this DE? Only a few clubs have that where you can pay $25 and go for a few laps with an instructor. If so I want to sign up as a driver and get my wife in the passenger seat.

The club usually has one day where they allow slow laps over lunch with passengers, no helmets. Also, that group allows instructors to take anyone over the age of 18 out for hotlaps during the regular sessions.
