There is a weekend event at Summit Point, WV in June. It is a High Performance Driving Education event. This means that 1) you will be driving your own car; 2) you will have an instructor in car (unless and until you get signed off to run solo); 3) you can go as fast as you can; 4) you will need a car that will pass tech and an SA95 or newer helmet; 5) there will be other cars on the track; 6) there IS passing (on the straights, with a signal from the leading car); and 7) you WILL have a good time.
The cost looks like $289, but there may be discounts for multi-participant groups. (I can get details if there are enough to matter). Summit is about 1.5 hours from DC. It is a real race track and speeds get really fast!
I recommend your car be in good shape and you have some good brake pads if you want to play. Stockers will NOT make it though a weekend on this track. If you are interested, leave me an email. Post any questions you have now here and I will answer them or direct you to the proper authorities. This event WILL sell out (early for the novice class).
