CHJ In Virginia

Here is the info for the HPDE run by the Northern VA CC. Lots of run time on a newly paved track surface. Come join us.

HPDE at the Summit Point Main Circuit on Friday, July 11th, 2008, from 7AM - 5:30PM. Registration has begun and will be open to 25 per group (novice, intermediate, and advanced), for a total of 75 slots. Since this is a high speed event, rules require a MOUNTED fire extinguisher and roll bars in convertibles, long pants and long sleeved shirt, and closed toe shoes. Cars must pass a tech inspection.

If you have any questions, please email George Kerns at whiskeytahoe@comcast.net.

PLEASE SIGN UP EARLY! If we do not get enough paid drivers early, the event risks cancellation!

Directions to track: Take Route 7 West past Leesburg toward Winchester, VA. (You may wish to take the Route 7 Leesburg bypass to avoid downtown Leesburg.) Continue on Route 7 West past the Berryville exits and turn right onto Route 632 (Crums Church Road). Follow 632 until you reach the "T" intersection (where you must turn right or left). At that intersection, turn right onto Route 761 (Old Charles Town Road). Continue on 761 until you reach the next "T" intersection. Make a right turn and follow 300 yards. The entrance will be on your right.

I did this event last year, and it was a very well run event, and I had a blast.

Nihilation

Is this open to all cars at this time? Or just Corvettes?

sothpaw2

Already signed up and looking forward to it.
I only wish NVCC did more of these days on the Main.

LilR3dCorvette

Open to all cars.

LilR3dCorvette

We've tried holding more HPDEs there, but getting the numbers to sign up is a problem. We can't pay for the track if we don't have enough registrations.

For $175 and a well-run event with plenty of track time, we are the best deal out there

sothpaw2

A good deal. Wish I could scare up more folks so you could do more events! Maybe communication w/ clubs from surrounding states? The ernccc site has the event but I don't know how many people really know about it.

LilR3dCorvette

I think the people planning the event have contacts with many different car clubs in the area that they send these event announcements to. If you know of any car clubs who would be interested in this, let me know, and if we didn't already send them the info, I'll make sure they get it.

sothpaw2

Would NCM let you advertise? It seems HPDE is a little more popullar in NC
and southern VA.

All the East Region NCCC clubs are on it ...
I've told all the potential participants in my club (G-Burg Vettes)
However ... NVCC needs to get the link fixed from the Summit Point schedule - it does not link to the NVCC site registration page (at least for me)

Still some spaces open in each run group --- come on down for a fun event !!

LilR3dCorvette

Denny,

I think our webhost had a backup problem there. The document was there but the link text reverted to that of the old form. It has been corrected on the autoX page: http://www.nvcorvetteclub.com/autox.html Make sure you clear your cache (hold the shift key while clicking the reload button).

But this direct link has always worked: http://www.nvcorvetteclub.com/Forms/...DEJuly11th.pdf

And so has the forum link with the registration attachment: http://www.nvcorvetteclub.com/nvccfo...46&postcount=5

Mailed in my registration on Saturday!

I'll be there instructing... but i really need to get my power steering system done!

Nihilation

+1 maybe -1 power steering

MungoZ06

Look forward to meeting you ... tho prolly I've seen you there ... just didn't know your "handle"
BTW ... you gonna do video? Now that I've run Shenandoah I can still gain knowledge from reviewing your video of that.

LilR3dCorvette

That's still not done?!

FWIW, I still need a re-alignment and brakes on LilRed. The track build still isn't finished, either.

Nihilation

Haha -- you mean the ones on Right Foot Down of my car that I let Ross drive in the 2nd video?

And yes, we'll probably get more video footage this event.

spazegun2213

I look forward to meeting you as well. I have a really hard time putting faces to screen names, I'm MUCH better with cars

No, its not done, bills came up and well the race car is the last one to get any money. I hope to have some time this week to tear it apart and get ready for a nice turn one pump with other stuff.
