I even offered them $5 to move us, no go.

We're always looking for some way to move our full course date to a more desireable, non-weather depentant date, but its tough at VIR... we're not real high up on the totem pole unfortunately (although we do have an excellent relationship with track managment and an exemplary safety record, so fingers are crossed.)
I might try to make it out to join you at that February date (weather permitting). I've been wanting to drive VIR's full course for years, and I'm looking to take a track day road trip next year.

Gary... we'd love to have you. One good thing about our event (usually the second weekend in Feb) is that we have arranged with the track for a special weather clause in our contract. This means that in the event of inclement weather, which makes it unsafe to drive on track (basically any frozen precip), We only pay for the amount of track time used. Which means participants get pro-rated refunds if the event has to be stopped early, or truncated in any way.

A bit of a safety net for those wary of registering

The pics are nice insofar as its cool to see weight transfer but the nismo lip that was added on the car in later pics needs to be considered as that can give the illusion that the car is lower in the corners than in previous pics.

It's a Veilside lip.

Its actually not any lower than the small stock lip, just sticks out slightly and looks good.

The pictures are great! The lip makes your car look more aggressive too. Very nice!
