In case you can't get enough seat time, registration is open for the VMSC event on May 22nd. They are running at VMP! yippeeee

Likewise, I see Triad is at the Greensboro site on the same day.

The caption Matt Ogburn attached .... "Check you mirror!"

What a great event. A 65 plus second course that used almost all of the 4 acres of asphalt.

A good view of about 2/3 of the course.....

Would you believe a clean 57.6? Maybe it was the big red Firebird behind me!

Traction, no gravel, and a relatively open course design make for lots of fun. Would have been fun in a Corvette too!

This was not a high speed course. My max speed was 68 mph in second. Lots of "meat of second gear" stuff after an opening segment in the "meat of my 45 mph first".
