The HyperDrives are usually on Saturday. All the NASA Mid-Atlantic events have them (VIR & Summit Point). See the schedule I posted above.
The Southeast Region has a hyperdive at Carolina Motorsports Park (SC) on Feb. 9th
. Also Road Atlanta has one on March 9th. That one is $75 for some reason. There is another one at CMP on May 18th.

Located in Youngsville. Have trouble making many events due to schedule, but def interested in finding a way onto VIR's track at some point soon.
I would also like to put together a (potentially short) list of good driving roads around the triangle.
This one from the Miata guys covers NC and is quite good. Mostly mountain roads listed. Did a bunch this fall and they are great.

First two contributions is Green Road in Youngsville:
And Beaverdam Road by Falls Lake:
Anyone got others?

Rutherford County Corvettes is planning an all Corvette show in Forest City NC on April 27. We'd love for you guys to get a group together and come spend the day with us. Forest City is about 60 west of Charlotte. The show will be for charity. We are in the early planning stages as of now, stay tuned for more info coming very soon.

My understanding is that the rainout date is Saturday, January 5th.
That would make a Cars & Coffee at 259 New Waverly Place in Cary in the a.m., and a cruise-in at Grill 57 in Garner in the afternoon.

Most likely won't make Waverly because my Ported Throttle Body is still on FedEx set-up for Saturday AM delivery (fedex is late!!!). Will only take 10 minutes to install. If it arrives before 9:30 I'll make Waverly too. I'll make grill 57.
