I have a 12x12 ez-up and most likely can get another 10x10. Prob the more the merrier. What is the eating situation again? Can we come and go during the evening without issue - like to go off site for dinner? Cooking gear? I have none. Morning Starbucks?  If I remember correctly (and that's a stretch) they close the gates past a certain hour at night and then re-open them early in the morning. Most people bring their own food/booze/whatever, but they also serve some food at the track (at least for lunch). As for the trailers, I'm interested in sharing one. I don't have a hitch on my car, but if someone can tow, I'll pay for the gas. |

First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

I'd expect they would lock the gates after a point. Can't think they would want open access at off hours.
So right now it looks like we will have 2-3 canopies of various size.
A Grill - yay Brett! So we can have hot food. OF course supply your own.
Frank and I are rolling together - Frank we *might* be renting a trailer. The enclosed has a wiring issue that I hope to fix.

cool is right...but some of Nick's armchair quarterbacking is such that I think if he said some of those things to those guys directly, he'd find snubbing to be a regularly done to him thing...and I like a lot of what Nick teaches... |

"Snubbing" would be polite  These are GP / World Superbike / etc champions and stars - I'm thinking they know what they are doing. But I guess there's always room for improvement... Luckily there's no pics of me pretending to lean off in any corners! (crashing does not count) |

Looks like I'm out too. I spent all my play money for the summer on something else. Shame I won't get to ride it on the track this time! If we do another one in the fall, I'd be in.

It's quite unfortunate they close the gates as there is a nearby town. VIR is open 24hrs even though the nearest place around there is danville which is 20 miles out. |
