Re: NESBA track days - VIR 10/17-18
You done? Heh, those are all good questions though. A lot of them can be answered on the NESBA typical track day page. If you don't have a suit, you can rent one for $50, but definitely sign up in advance for that and your track day.
So you don't drag your knee on the street?! Good! The track is the place for that. Nothing like a controlled environment to cut loose and legally do what would get you thrown under the jail normally.
As for tires, you will not wear out your street tires. In fact, you're really only burning up the sides, which is opposite of what you're doing on the street.
Yeah, from DC it's 4 hours, so I suggest you come down the evening before. I ride my daily driver/race bike down there and camp, though it's only 2 hours for me.
Let me know if the NESBA website doesn't answer all your questions. I'll do my best to answer them for you.

zoink, thanks for your contribution. Where's that engine?
Lars, I saw only a couple girls there, and one of them was brand new to the track. Leathers don't really show off a girl's curves ya know, so I probably saw her and didn't even know it was a girl.
sir loin, I don't know who those questions were directed at, but I'll answer them anyways. The track days were great! Patriot whipped my a**! My right quad and right arm are still sore. You've really gotta earn your way around that track. The straightaways were just long enough for me to start getting in to the good part of 3rd gear before you had to throw on the binders again. Control Rider Taylor really helped me get around that track better. As for Monday on Full, I'm much more confident and WAY faster than I was before. The sections that scared me don't scare me any more, and I was banging the rev limiter in 6th numerous times.
Oh, and I got the bump!! Wooooooo! I don't know how my ego will take getting passed with ease now, when I'm used to being the one doing the passing. But, I'll get to learn a lot and push myself even more.
