I am coming from midlothian (Richmond), so whatever is the fastest way for me...I have the dreaded GPS in the car, so that will take me right on in (looks like I would be taking 60 straight west and not getting on 64).....just let me know an ETA of when you all will be there, I will be meet ya there! Looks like it is a fun track!

what time are you "early birds" getting down there?? I am coming from Richmond, but have to head out a little early to get back for a function with the wife....looking forward to seeing some of you again, and meeting the rest of you!

well, just got in from a poker night, so I will not be out there (180 miles round trip might be a little much in my current state!). Burn some for me - Hopefully the rain holds off for you all...

The track is great -- needs to be run-in some more, but it will be great for the race.

It is not near F'burg at all. Look about 60 miles south (on highway 29) of Charlottesville. It is in Amherst, Va..
