What you get:

Left hook and the Snake

Roller Coaster

Hog Pen

And everything else seen here

VIR site

How, you ask, can you have all this?  A High Performance Driving Event sponsored by NASA-VA.  All you need is your car that can pass tech, an SA95 or newer helmet, and $301.  You will need to sign up through www.nasaracing.net .  You will also find more detail there on the weekend.  As an aside - when you make your car profile include "Zilvia" as your team name (or edit it on your existing profile).  If 10 of you go, you will get a discount (I think about 5-10%.. which is something).  

For your money you will get four 20 minute sessions - each day - plus 2-3 hours of total classroom time.  Do the math - that's almost three hours of track time!!  $100 an hour!  Compared to drag racing or autox (figure $25 for 3 minutes - tops&#33<img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wink.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

'> look at the value!  During your track time, you will get a licensed instructor to help you develop your high speed driving skills.  You will learn more about driving smooth and fast in one weekend that you could pick up in 10 years on the roads... trust me on this one!

Not to mention that it is impossible to have more fun in your car.  Yup - even naked <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/biggrin.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt='

'>  VIR is one of the best tracks in the country and is the most awesome driving experience I've ever had.  BTW: I'll be there (likely staying at the Innkeeper West) - so I hope to see as many of you as possible come on out!

See ya at the track  <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/thumbs-up.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':thumbsup:'>

If I had the money I'd definitely be there.  $300 is a lot to a college kid, especially when I just bought a new $11,000 bike (pics of that will be posted in OT in about a week)...

Sigh, I wish I could go though, it'd be a blast!
