We will target getting to the gates at VIR at 8:00am!

I have arranged with VIR management for us to have our own staging lanes so we can go out in groups entirely of Corvettes. Once we fill the staging lanes with 30+ cars, we can go out together.
Wish I could be there. I'll be out of the country that week.

Second, our vette is stock, but I do have a Tune. It was done by Chuck Moselo (Chuck CoW) of Corvettes of Westchester last October at the Corvette Expo in Seveirville, TN.

Third, that is another reason that I started this thread. To actually get input on Corvette Things in this area.

Finally, I would try Maryland Speed they are way closer to you than anyone else. Maryland Speed Forum Vendor
Good Luck,

Thanks, Is there any special safety equipment needed for laps?
Helmets, special belts, what about passengers?

No helmets are required. Standard seatbelts are fine. Passengers are allowed.
