    Sold the AGXs. Guy with a sweet silver NB. Hopefully he joins and starts coming out to the meets, which reminds me. We need to schedule another one soon. Ideas?

    VIR will open its gates and track once again this year Friday, April 3 for an Open House and Charity Laps event benefiting Victory Junction, a year-round camp for children ages six to 16 with chronic medical conditions and serious illnesses.

    We would also like to extend an invitation to anyone that wishes to attend the planting of the Son of Oak Tree, which will take place the same day, April 3, at Noon.

    About nine years ago, a former employee of VIR planted acorns from the original tree, which have now matured and they have graciously offered to return it home. Measuring about three feet tall, that seedling will be moved to just outside the south end of the track, where it will be relocated for both racers and spectators to enjoy for years to come.

    Learn more about the Open House »

    I might have to call up there, find out what the rules are for 8 year olds, also whether I'd have to secure a helmet.

    EDIT-
    No helmets required/regulated runs. $25/15 minute run. Properly restrained kids are OK.

    You got it. Downside is all the inexperienced drivers with mustangs and corvettes who can't turn to save their life and screw it up for us with more agile cars.

    As much as I like bashing mustang and camaro drivers, it's been a miata both times I've seen a tire wall impact at charity laps.
