I have done the last VIR events with the past two being the ALMS before the changes this year. I have not done in the parade lap here previously but plan on making it Friday this year. The corral at VIR is good but not like Road Atlanta coming up in Oct.

Have you seen these cars live before?

I was posting in the RDU thread, but I'll chime in over here too...since Lee's here. I'll be there Friday-Sunday. I shouldn't be far from my camera or a cooler the entire weekend. Thinking we'll be camping.

Hello from Japan!

Hate I missed the festivities at Vet Pro, looked to be a fun event!

Ready to be back in the states!

Forgot to mention we lost a Corvette Brother late last week. Missed the funeral R.I.P Wormy Peeler.

Been knowing him for a long time......tried to buy the car a month before the tragic loss.

He will surely be missed!
