Default Does anyone have any experience/insight with Synergy Racing's Fall Fling at VIR?

I've been attending strictly ACNA DE's till now, but really wanting to fit something in October.

Specifically my interest would be in their safety protocols, I've been very impressed with ACNA's (and the tracks I've visited): instructors, driver group placement and monitoring, evaluations, strict enforcement of passing zones, flagging, tech

I've been to VIR twice before and will be there with the Potomac chapter again in November

TIA, Bennet

i went last year...instructors were not provided, there were lots of incidents also...

if you are an experienced (advanced level) student, instructor, or racer i think you'll be ok...its more suited to advanced drivers/racers...more of a test/tune day than a DE...

from what i recall, drivers pick their own run group...

the link below is a thread about them on bimmerforums...it was started last year and revived recently...<ul><li><a href="http://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=401473&amp;highlight=synergy">htt p://forums.bimmerforums.com/forum/showthread.php?t=401473&amp;highlight=synergy</a</li></ul>
