Blues,

Thank you again for the Videos of the track, they helped on the ONELAP

Man what a BEAUTIFUL track and facility V.I.R. is !!!!!

I stayed in thr Lodge there, absolute best track-lodge setup in the Country

I WISH I lived closer, I would be there in RED FURY in a heartbeat

I drove the North and Full track at VIR, my co-driver did the South

Have FUN,

Phil

 

Wish I could make it... but hopefully my car is at distribution today... so it won't be long..

 

you don't have to drive your MINI. bring any car you want. they will only let you drive on the track on sunday during quite hours if your not in the school. you can probably get an instructor to give you a few hot laps in their car on either day. i've has good luck with that when friends come up. it's only 2.5 hours from here.

 

Did the Grand East course 2 weekends ago with the Mazda Drivers. There were at least 5 MINIs. Three of us that planned on it and paddocked together and a couple of others. We came from NY and PA, anywhere from 6 1/2 to 9 hours! Well worth it. My third time there, will be there again with NASA Mid-Atlantic July 29-31, North Course. www.nasaracing.net

Have fun!

 

one of my favorite instructors was at the mazda school. he's been my instructor 3 times. also the guy that made the pedals for my MINI. great guy. he and his brother both instruct in miata's. one of them has a turbo and the other a supercharger. can't remember which has what. brian also tracks his evo and viper. must be nice.

 

bluesmini -

I won't make the Tarheel BMW CCA school this time, but we usually have several MINIs, and I can assure you we're a very MINI-friendly group. Several of the other instructors have MINIs. And everyone there knows what's up. You'll fit right in.

Suddenly I'm thinking this is probably not your first Tarheel school and you probably already know all of this. Either way, I wish I could come play but, I have other plans.
