Default Just faxed registration paperwork

Looks like I am in the Blue group this year. Sure hope it is not 105 again this year, hard time keeping the car cool last year. Also learned that an A4 is not the way to go for road courses so this year going with a '04 Z06 6speed. And to make sure I have all the power I need I installed a "red" oil catch can. We all know red makes you go faster!!!

Sorry, but I just was not aware of this event. However, thanks to Glenn (Glennm27) he told me about it and WOW how could one NOT partake of this!
So, I'm in!
(first time there - I'm green)

Can't wait!

Funny you should say that. I went to the Bondurant School last September. It was 112 each day - and who knew!!!!

I'm gonna guess you're the guy that Glenn mentioned to me as a first-timer, you're gonna have a blast!

My fiance is signed up for yellow and this year I'll be moving up to blue with Glenn and the gang. Don't worry gang, I watch my mirrors.

Ah well, CF hibernation broken, but at least it's for a good cause. See you on the track folks!

Last year about 240 corvettes! No way anyone should miss it! These are guaranteed to be some of the best times one will ever have on track.

I've run every NCM event East of the Mississippi since Roc started in 2005 and they just get better and better; sure wish I did! The NCM event at VIR is the most fun you can have in the front seat of a car. Looking forward to seeing the usual supportive and enjoyable group of great drivers, instructors, VIR track crew and NCM folks. A highlight is watching Tom "Golden Eagle" demonstrate a right side point by. I'm sure he is already in physical therapy conditioning for the grand gesture!!
