Default It's NEVER too early to start thinking about VIR

ONLY 5 WEEKS AWAY NOW

________________________________________ __

Special rates at VIR for lodging via the 10/10ths event in March


Villa, upper and lower ($275.00 / night) we had 5 guys in our suite last year with no issues. Pretty cheap and a great pad to set up in.

Villa, lower only $120 / night Easily sleeps 3

Villa, upper only $155.00 night Master BR and a couple of couches but with a full kitchen and balcony overlooking the track

Garage suite and Lodge rooms $89.00 / night

Garage $100 / night

When making reservations, tell them you are with 10/10ths.

Thanks and hoping to see many of you there.

Bill







Hard to believe this is just 6 weeks away and the year (for me at least will begin again)

10/10ths Motorsports is going to VIR on March 15th 16th (Mon/ Tue)
for 2 days of great track time.

We will have our usual 3 groups running 1/2 hour sessions for about 3.0 hours each day.
We had a blast last year and I am looking forward to a bigger / better event in 2010

Details can be found at:

Thanks and looking forward to a geat 2010
Bill

Sounds good! Let us know how what the other VIR dates for the year turn out to be--it's good to plan the whole year out for some of us.

Tarheel will be at VIR in only 5 weeks.........we've only been "snowed out" once.


I may look into the 10/10ths event also if you need instructors.

Hey David, We have never met but would love to have you for instructors if you don't mind a 911. Let me know if this works out for you.

It was 4 mos ago I did my last track day, which was at VIR. Car has been apart mostly since for bs stuff. It is finally at Williams getting the final tune and tweaks so hopefully I will be ready. I have only watched the video from the 2 session I completed then about 5 times and probably will again today. I am ready!

It would be a great help if folks tell their buddies about this.

Being only our 2nd year at VIR, I still need to get some exposure so folks know who 10/10ths is and what we are about.

This is a pretty good description of our run groups etc.

Thanks and have a great New Year

Great first event for 10/10ths at VIR last year (a few months ago). I am also looking forward to this event. I'm trying to get out the word to all in my area. See you-all there.

With the single digit temps we're suffering through, it's hard to believe we'll be at VIR in just ten weeks! I'm ready.

Are you looking at the Villa again? If so and you have any openings for a slow pumpkin pilot, give me a shout.

I just signed up.

Bill, I just signed up under a different user name. I didn't realize I already had a user name and created a new one. Does that create a problem or should I delete new user name and registration somehow and re-register with my original user name? oops!
