Who is going?


What are you bringing?

I will be there instructing and my son will be there as a student. He will be in his 05 RX8 and I will be in my C5 or I might also use the Mazda. We are both looking forward to it. Hope to see everyone there.

MazdaDrivers?

I am in. Bringin me, my '04 8...fresh fluids, fresh Pads, ALMOST new Azenis ST615s and a smile. See you there! Say hey to the Titanium from PA.

EDIT -- Azenis are not so new after 100 minutes of track time last Friday WOW what an upgrade from the Bridgestones...

Paul_in_DC

Moi too. I'm bringing my grey 8.

I'm there. Black RX-8 w/ black wheels, Azenis 615's, stock otherwise, MD tags. Hopefully I'll be in B group. I'm there w/ basic tools, an extra set of 17x9 wheels, plenty of brake fluid, and new Nitto NT01's to break in on Sunday.

Come on hank, you know you want to do the 4 days!!!

Paul_in_DC

Road Atlanta and VIR? I can just see you walking around with a silly grin on your face for at least a month afterwards.

Dont' encourage him to go to road atlanta. If he goes to Vir twice instead, he'll get some RT-615 goodness!

RT hank! RT!!!! Thats like Racing *******!

Good Luck. What number are you?

DCNSX

I am IN !!!- just heard the good word today. I'm really psyched to run the Grand East configuration. I'll be in a black NSX. I'd really like to talk to some of you about how you like the Azenis- will need new tires on the NSX after this HPDE.

awesome, which group (A, B, C, D) will you be running in?

hogcar

Good deal. Shouldn't be hard to find you in the NSX.
Anyone else instructing???

willhave8

H, have you seen any communications from Dave on who is in the groups? I don't remember seeing it - although I have received a lot of stuff so far. I expect to be in D or C.

they usually don't announce the groupings over e-mail; you find out when they hand you the roster after you checked in; i should be in C, hopefully i'll do well enough that they'll bump me into B to play with the faster cars

DCNSX

I ran in B in March. Depending on what's available, I should be in B or maybe C since I've never run the Grand East configuration.

gotta run- gotta check my front brake pads tonight!

Congrats! You're Howard, right? We met at the VIR-N event. I love my Azenis on track, and I actually know a guy from No. VA who ran them on his NSX at BeaveRun a couple of weeks ago. I believe he's quite happy with them. Find me in the pits and we'll talk further - black RX8- w/black wheels.

Paul_in_DC

Whew, I think I got the last available room at the Sleep Inn. Here's a couple pics from March. I hope I get moved up to 'C' next time...

tomfree

A couple of friends and I are staying in the new trackside condos - the ones right there on the front straight. They're reasonably priced - $99 a night, 2 double beds, free wireless internet, and you can just fall out of bed in the morning and walk to the paddock.

the Lodge is awesome, too bad they were filled up before i could sign up... so Sleep Inn for me

DCNSX

I ran in B group at VIR in March. So I'll be in B unless they put me in C since I've never run the Grand East configuration- depends on availability. I am psyched- 4.2 miles , 32 turns!

you should be in B, they don't pull people down because they haven't run a particular course configuration.... if you're fast already you'll be fast on the new setup in no time
