FCA Track event at VIR March 9-10

Is there a link to somewhere we can sign up? I'd love to try to make it this year.

 

Hi Scott,

I will PM you the Event Coordinator's information. I'm not sure if he wants this posted online or not.

Bill P.

P.S., I forgot to add that anyone else looking for more information about this event should go to the following website: www.fca-nc.org

 

Thank you Bill!

 

Always a great event with tons of track time. Hope I can make it.

I am going to see if I can get my 308QV together in time for this. The only snag is that my helmet is flying back to France with the Stand 21 guys after Daytona for some warranty work. I'm not sure it will make it back in time.

Meanwhile, so much to do in the garage. The UPS man is bringing me some candy tomorrow, so hopefully things move forward apace.

 

This event is keeping me focused! I want to make sure that my car is working before I commit 100%.

I am hoping to wrap up my suspension and brake-line rehab this weekend. Fluid changes are done. My race seat, bracket and harness should show up late this week or early next. I need to fabricate my harness bar, corner weight and align the car, and get a fresh set of tires. And it wouldn't hurt to actually drive the car a bit just to make sure that it all works.

So it's a lot to try to get done in a short period of time.

Right now all of this looks possible. As soon as it looks PROBABLE I will go ahead and register. I sent in my FCA and SCCA dues, so all of my memberships and licensing are in good order.

Looking forward to pulling this off!

I need my helmet because it has the correct HANS hardware on it. I'm optimistic about getting it back from France on a timely basis!

 

I have an AiM "Learning Fast" seminar going on at the track at my facility Saturday and Sunday.

Registration is available for the Intro seminar on Saturday here: Intro Learn Fast-With Roger Caddell at VIR! info on Mar 7, 2015 (218866) | MotorsportReg.com

Otherwise, hope to see everyone Monday and Tuesday at this great event!

 

Twenty-one days until this event. It's currently 11F outside in Baltimore with winds blowing at 30-40MPH and 4" of snow on the ground. Another 6-8" expected tomorrow.

I did the SCCA Drivers School in the snow last year. In an open-cockpit car. With no heat.

C'mon, Mother Nature! Give us a break!

 

Hey everyone!
It's been way too long since I've been able to come out here on F-chat...!

I want to welcome (and invite!) everyone coming to the track event in just a few weeks. I'll be Chief Steward again this year and I know it's going to be a great time! We have some fantastic instructors lined up and some great people and cars already registered. This is going to be a "Don't miss it!" event!

Share with your friends about the event and get them to come out too! A Ferrari is not required - we welcome all marques.

I look forward to seeing everyone!

Cheers & C U @ d'Track!!

I would like to drive my gt4 to the event but I really don't want to go out on track. Is the event open to spectators?

 

Absolutely! We'd love to have you come out and see us. Once you see how we do it, maybe we can convince you to bring the GT4 ou for the fun next year!

Cheers & C U @ d'Track!!

Holy Cow...^^^... I think that I just found my new screen saver picture

 

Boy did we have a great event at VIR this past Mon/Tues!
Peter Krause already posted a great photo of a sample of the amazing machinery we had on hand. The only thing better than the cars was the people! And there were indeed some fantastic people there! Even the Area Sales Manager from Ferrari North America couldn't resist coming. Huge thanks to Foreign Cars Italia for sponsoring the event, bringing some serious eye-candy, and providing tech assistance and support.

We had an amazing crew of instructors (THANK YOU GUYS - GREAT JOB!), who guided a wonderful group of exotic car owners in exploiting what their cars were designed and built to do. It was awesome! One of the instructors in particular - Karl Troy (European Road and Racing) deserves extra special thanks for sponsoring the event with some great looking t-shirts for both the instructors and the general event shirts - THANKS again Karl!!

MAJOR thanks to all who came and most especially to Jim Meek and Philippe Dorier for taking the lead on such an over-the-top event! Away from the track, the dinner and socials on Philippe and Brigitte's deck in the evenings were a blast and their hospitality was greatly appreciated.

If you weren't there, all I can say is start kicking yourself now. And don't miss next year!
Let the photos begin! Can you say La Ferarri? Or how about 288 GTO?!

Cheers & C U @ d'Track!!

I had a conflicting autocross this year that ended up being canceled at the last minute due to the ice and snow at the site in Arkansas. I hope to make it next year. Awesome photo.
