Anyone here going? I will be there instructing. If anyone needs a place to stay I have a room with 2 double beds and would be willing to split it with someone if you are looking for a place to stay.

Hey Trip I saw you on the ride home yesterday. I was in the blue Tahoe towing the Camaro. What run group were you in?

Edit: I see now you were in group one. Was this your first time at VIR?

Second but first on north course... I had an amazing time and this event really helped me come to some of the limits of myself driving my car. I learned a ton, rode in some amazing vehicles with awesome drivers and just had an overall great time like always. I cant wait to continue and develope as a good driver.

I saw your car and walked over to it on the parking area but you werent there. I was in the lightweight white e36 m3 (with porsche brakes, h and rs and r compounds -james and jerry) and i saw you run off at hogpin but everything looked ok. I was following my dad going 9875409837497mph coming home so i tried to slow down cause i though that was you and i saw the car and knew it was so I gave you a thumbs up.

I saw you from the passenger seat of a couple cars during the Group 4 runs. You and your car were fast. Nice stuff.

Trip: I had 2 students this weekend so I was kept pretty busy. All I did to the car in Hog Pen was get it dirty I was just showing my student what not to do ...yea that it. I think I remember you passing my group 1 student. He was in a red Cobra convertible. It was only his second time on track ever so he was pretty conservative.

98sr20ve: Thanks, I was having alot of fun out there this weekend. I had some real good runs with a few Turbo Porsches.

PS: anyone know what happened to the sigs

Maybe you remember zooming past my car in the instructors group when I let Scott drive it during HPDE4 sunday morning.
