The VIR event was awesome! In two days of driving, I only saw Ashboomstick out there once, and I had a tough time keeping his '07 S behind my Spec Miata!

Did anybody get or post pics? My video setup didn't work out.

I can't post my video. When i got back to charlotte, my car got broken into and they took my helmet bag and camera box. all gone...

I had a student in a MINI in the Green group. It was grey and it had black stripes. I think she was the only girl in that group.

that's cause I was drafting that 550 Maranello!

Blues-man that's pretty crappy that someone ganked your stuff. I was looking forward to seeing your video too! I got a ridealong with my instructor in his Lotus Elise and man was that a fun ride!

I saw that woman in the dark silver mini but it didn't seem like she was very friendly so I didn't really approach her. It seemed she mostly just hung out with her husband there.
