Default Prolly.

We raced the enduro that NASA ran last Feb. at VIR, and we're probably going back as they've lengthened it to full 4 hour. Weather will be a crap shoot, but last year it was ~60 deg. and sunny. Race Supps aren't up yet so we're waiting to figure out which cars we're taking...depends on the least # of driver's they'll allow for 4 hours. Last year there was no mandatory driver change, so John ran the Nissan and I ran 'Abdul, Ship of the Desert' (my GTI). What a camel - almost ran the full 2.5 hours without a stop. I'll guess that they'll require a driver change this year, so we'll probably just run the Nissan.

The only stuff they've got scheduled for that weekend is the enduro and several groups of HPDE. They've got the Friday before scheduled too, for what their website describes as "SuperComp School / Level 1 Instructor Clinic / Open Practice (Race comp licensed)" - sounds like playtime for the big kids. If we're going all the way down there, might as well drag a second car down there and burn up gas and tires all day Friday. Anybody know if VIR has a sound limit for weekday stuff ? The '65 Mustang race car is l-o-u-d. L-O-U-D. 103+ dB Loud.<ul><li><a href="http://www.nasaracing.net/03feb21/index.shtml">NASA Feb. VIR link</a></li></ul>

Default I'll be in the enduro

w/ Corey, and 2 other drivers in the Prelude. John, stay away from me :P

btw - NASA-VA doesn't own a decibel meter. Read between the lines.
