I wonder if one of the mods could make us a subforum in the event section since, the Grand-Am Experience will be for all season?

That would be great, as we are looking to make this a big as possible for 2009, so we can do this in 2010 and beyond!!!!

 

Marlon, I messaged Zoom44 the info...waiting to here back from him.

 

Fantastic Idea guys! Great to see another National Mazda event

 

Thanks for your help zoom!

Sorry I just realized I spelled Johny's name wrong. There should have been an H between the o and the n.

Damn, there's already 4 of us from NC Rotaries on the list! Nice work guys.

*edit* Make that 5 for my group, Marlon please add:

Turbo II (Greg) 91 Turbo II RX-7 -0 guests NC Rotaries

 

Updated, let me know how many on the 3 forums as well. I have several people on the Mazdaspeed forums that will be attending.

 

Please sign me up too

Hotsauce (Lance) - Rx-8 1 guest - NC Rotaries

So that make about 5 of us from NCR.

When is this event held?

 

Lance, this is for the Rolex race at VIR on Apr 24-25. Oh and you make 6 so far Lance...Johny counts too since been with group for a few years.

 

I might be going to this, however this Mazda experience could sway me. What are the perks at the VIR, any details? Other than the Mazda corral?

 

I'll bring in a list of people from the Central Virginia group. Not all of them are registered here so I'll use our forum screen names where needed.

To start:

1) 7andan8 (AKA...VR8) - RX-8
2) TaylorAnn (daughter/CVMC forum) - RX-7 vert
3) Fred114 (CVMC forum) - Speed3
4) michaelsk8er - RX-8 ... come Michael, you're gonna go!

Surely more to add later!

 

Man I'm supposed to go to Europe in May and I'm supposed to be saving up. I am really interested and trying to get someone to come with me, but if the meet goes good tomorrow I might be down. I know that if I don't go it will be amazing.

 

Way to go John! Bring 'em all...I'm looking forward to this. Hell, I may even be crewing this time around...I'm trying to get my foot in the door with one of the Ferrari teams.

 

I can't believe the timing; I'll be in California. The track resurfacing changed turns 1, 4, and 5. It's pretty sticky now, but coming out into 6 is the same old surface. I'll be curious how much it affects the race cars. Have fun guys!

 

i'll be underway

Can we update the original post to show all the list?

 

I suppose we still need to purchase tickets for this event, or is there special tickets or passes that we get for the Mazda event?

As of right now, the best deal you get on tickets is through VIR's e-Tix. A 3-day pass runs $50, if you would like to camp out at the track it will be an extra $35. There will be parking passes available once things get worked out with Grand-Am and VIR as far as where will be parking for the Mazda owners.

If anybody is familiar with VIR, there is one area I can think of where the Mazda corral/Grand-Am Experience would be located, The Gallery. It is a pretty spacious area with a covered garage area where VIR normally holds banquets and things like that. Once I here back from some of the coordinators I will post up more if they have not done so themselves.
