Damn Sean*%$#!@#

I also learned the hard way that the car will sometimes lock the doors when you set the TPMS. In my case it has never had anything to do with a low battery. I now always leave a window open. I would estimate it locks the doors 10%-20% of the time.

I've got to think someone will be able to help you get in the car.

Could you sign up for onstar and then have them unlock the car?

I talked with Newlander last night and he needs some John Deere stickers and a 4:10 rear end for a 1963 Farmall! Can anyone deliver?

Sean,
Rock the car!!!! If you can get the FOB to move just a little bit, it will unlock the doors. At least that's what I read somewhere.
Good luck,
Jim

Day one is down in the books and what a great day it was. Great to see so many old friends and great day for the track, especially the AM sessions with the overcast sky....

Looking forward to Tuesday..........

I love VIR

USA1C5

Yes, we got a whole day in. Track was very good in my opinion. Looking forward to tomorrow, although a better chance of rain, but think positive.

I'm chilling out in my garage suite now.

Wish I was there. All hell broke loose at work today though, so would have been a very bad time to be away.

You are probably ok tomorrow until 1pm. Hope they re-arrange the schedule to get more early sessions in before then.

Great driving, lots of friends and a track POS:





Fortunately my students, Jim and Lonnie, have taken pity on me and allowed me some laps driving their cars. Wish I could have "borrowed" a Camaro again...

Lots of traction, good visibility, plenty of run-out, very smooth and a beautiful setting. What a treat! Steve L really helped accelerate my learning curve on Sunday. Wish I had my car to explore the limits he showed me, though still glad to be here.

It was warm with relatively low humidity and no rain today. Hope our luck continues for tomorrow!

Just wanted to thank ya'll for two days of great entertainment. I was joined by several other members of our club to serve as volunteers. We worked the grid area both days and saw some great cars go by. Saw several folks I knew and made many new friends. I already have my laptop on speed dial to sign up next year. We will have to find another volunteer worker to replace me. (Though I'll always be a VOL.. UT that is)

A special thanks to PAINRACE for taking my wife on a ride, even though it was shortened by her need to possibly start auctioning Buicks. Luckily there were no Buicks to sell. He graciously took me on some laps, and I am very greatful for the opportunity. Thanks Jim!

A thanks also from me and our other volunteers for being patient until we learned the ropes and became better at getting you folks on the line.

Hey Dean, does Mike need to clean out the passenger seat in the Beast again, or maybe even replace it this time?

Glennm27

Monday and Tuesday were just fantastic at VIR. Everything was just run so perfectly and the setting is the best we could ever dream of for an all Corvette HPDE......

Tom & Roc .. Great job as always

Everyone who lent a hand in this event deserves kudos for a terrific job and Tuesday was no picnic for anyone having grid duties, flag people and ANY workers, thanks to you ALL..

A few personal thank yous

Mike Nulander, Yvonne and myself want to thank you for making us both feel at home at the Nulander catering trailer, you are just too kind my friend!

Jamie Creel, I don't know how to thank you enough for all you did Tuesday, late afternoon helping me get my Z06 back into action for my last session. Your help was greatly appreciated and I will never forget it....

AND
Steve and Lanie Lanstra, I don't even know where to start with you two. Your help in so many ways (Starting with lugging my tires for me 400 miles each way) made this event 10 times more fun than it would have been without you BOTH...
Steve, when Yvonne rode with you in #23 it was just beyond her expectations. After her ride Monday see was ready to walk around the paddock Tuesday with one of my helmets and a sign "Have helmet with ride shotgun". When you asked her to ride along again Tuesday, she ran to my car and grabbed a helmet and we had her buckled in in no time.. Thanks for everything my friend! See you soon....

Great Event, Great time and great seeing so many friends whom I only see this one times each year..... See you all in 2012....

It was a great two days. No rain to speak of. I will be back again next year.

All went well except for someone in the tire wall on the next to the last session that I know of. My last session today started a few minutes late because of the car in the tire wall in the previous session. There was relatively few cars on the track (Red and Black Group) in my last session.

Thanks to Roc, Tom, all the NCM people and all involved for another super event.

I didn't instruct this year I chose to run in Black Group, I guess I'm getting old and need more free time between sessions, maybe next year. I wish NCM would allow instructors to take only one student.

Thanks again to all.

That is something Rock should give some thought to, maybe half price for those that would instruct one student. It is tough with 2 students and your car, and the heat!! This may also be a way for NCM to get more instructors?? Just a thought. Thanks, to all for a great event. JD

I won't miss this next year
