Paolo,
If you want to rent a Spec Boxster at VIR let us know, we are there almost every other weekend. The First Settlers venue would be a good date.

BostonDMD- I have used Tom and Glenn at Long Road for several events, their cars are always top notch and you can not find a more professional group of guys to work with. Plus all their cars have AIM!

Checked with Longwood. $$$$

Basically they are renting a spec miata that could podium there. Not really a good deal for DE. Super nice guy though. Very up front. Haven't totally ruled it out.

good luck and have fun! VIR Full is one of my favorite tracks (after Watkins Glen).

What is your budget? I know of a former World Challenge BMW that may be available.

Under $1000 per day. Maybe a little more if it's something that I just have to drive.
