I'll be there, but won't be running the track day.  I ran both WERA events there this summer, so I will save the money.  My friend Sean will be there on his SV also.

Well a few of us will be driving down from baltimore area on wed night...I guess we will sleep at the gate overnight before track practice. We all have races through Sunday though, so we will be there all weekend. This year we are staying at the lodge...they set you can see the track from your room.

I will be there for CCS and FUSA and will be teaching the cornerspeed school as well.

You can see the track and pits from the lodge, it is on the outside of turns 5 and 6.  I will be camping as I cannot afford to stay at the lodge... anyone want to sponsor me?

I'm planning on making the trip from Saint Louis.  Never been there before.  I have a couple of questions

Do we run the North course?

Can you camp there Thursday night?  If so, any idea on cost and how late I can enter the track?

Any idea on gearing for an 01 GSXR 600?

TIA

Yes and yes.  Remember though, practice Thursday, racing Friday.  There are guards at the gate all night long, so you can pull in at any time.  Gate, camping fees are somewhere around 20 and 5 or 10 for electricity.  

Can't help ya on the gearing, but there'll be TONS of people there...so you won't have any issues getting several opinions.

Didn't think I was going to be able to go until the other day when my money tree in the back yard started sprouting.

Now if I can just get my women tree to do something
but I guess thats typical ;)

How much are they charging to stay at the lodge?
Title: Re: VIR 6/23
Post by: AM_#726 on June 09, 2005, 09:11:00 AM
I think $129.00 ea night on the weekend.  $99.00 during the weekdays.   We have a team of 4 to split the costs....it helps alot.

99.00 for Wednesday night, 120.00 for Thurs, Fri, Sat nights.  Totals out to 504.90 with Taxes and all for four nights.  Too bad CCS didn't commit to a block of rooms.  Would've been cheaper for everyone.  Also know that there are only 7 rooms left for the full weekend (wed-sat nights).

Team SKS Racing will be there for a FUN weekend.  I'm getting the opportunity to ride Honda's, Suzuki's, and Ducati's all in the same weekend!  WOO- HOOOOOO ;D ;D ;D
