VIR OctoberFAST 2013
I had the opportunity to join NASA at VIR this weekend, specifically Saturday Oct 12, 2013.
Unfortunately it rained most of the morning, so I got to experience my Hyperdrive on a wet track.
Anyway, photos from the event may be seen here.
I will be posting videos when I can.
Thanks to the great people at NASA and VIR for their professional presentation.

Unfortunately the weather at VIR did not cooperate with us this weekend. Friday was good and I only lost one session to the liquid sunshine. Saturday it was on and off all day, lost a session to the rain. Today was a total washout, raining as I woke up and it continued drizzeling all day. 400+ HP running slicks and rain do not mix. There was a lot of carnage, a silver C5 Z06 bought the wall hard as did numerous other racers.

I was there running in HPDE3 in the Cyber Gray ZR1. It was kind of hit or miss with the weather. On Sat I had one wet and 2 mostly dry sessions and on Sun the first was wet and the 2nd again mostly dry. I decided to skip the last session since it started to rain again.
Was the Silver C5 Z06 the car they were pulling out for the last HPDE 2 session?

Enjoyed seeing Corvette hill! I raced SM but got to see a number of corvettes in track trim. In the process of buying seats, bar, belts,wheels....ect for my C5Z now. First track outing will be Carolinas PCA at VIR in November. Looking forward to seeing what one drives like on the track.....
