Track Days, anyone?
Anybody interested in attending track days at
1. NCM Bowling Green, Ky on October 8-9 (Sa-Su) with 10/10ths Motorsport, or
2. VIR in Danville, VA (a bucket list track!) on October 23-24 (Su-Mo) with Chin Motorsports?
The last hurrah before winter sets in!

Sorry, I will not be able to attend due to a family commitment too close to the VIR date.
I'd sure love to go and meet Wobble64 and BLKROKT (a couple of my favorite members on this board) as well as drive that beauty of a track. Maybe another time...

Bernhard, I'm going to be at VIR September 26th and 27th with Performance Driving Experience. Jim is moving that same weekend so I know he is out. You want to bring the new Z?

I'm scheduled to be in Savannah the 21st and then back there on the 29th and 30th. I will know in the next week or so. You definitely in? Have you given any more thought to Daytona in December?

Guys -- most of you may know but, we have a new track in Virginia. Dominion Raceway recently opened just south of Fredericksburg and is hosting track days. I stopped by when it was under construction. Looks interest and is a couple of hours closer from the North. However, VIR is still The Track.

Eric,
need to travel to Europe on Business the week of September 26. The Z is currently getting a cooling upgrade and I would like to do a shake-down closer to home before hauling it to VIR. Hence the plan for doing Bowling Green first, then close the season out at VIR end October.
Would be interested to hear more about Dominion. Also am hearing that after the recent addition, Pitt Race has become a nice track.

I want a ride in the Z when you get it sorted for sure! I'm interested in Dominion as well. It's about 6.5 hour drive for me. How far is it from you? BLKRKT how far is it for you?

564 miles/9 hrs for me :-(
Dominion is still quite a bit shorter than VIR or NCM - 2 miles and 12 turns compared to 3.3 miles and 20is turns.
