#1 of 3 NASA HPDE & Road Race @ VIR by paisan Mar 01, 2007 (7:18 pm)
Just got back from a race and HPDE weekend at VIRginia International Raceway last weekend. It was a mixed bag weather wise with Dry weather on Fri-Sat and Rain on Sunday. Had a blast despite having car issues on our 94 Legacy Race Car. Some pics from the pits where we sat all weekend.... http://www.pbase.com/paisan/vir0207

Replying to: pf_flyer (Mar 06, 2007 6:39 am) Ah that's another story. It was our first event out and with that we had a lot of testing and tuning to do. We cracked the downpipe of the Turbo taking it off the trailer so we had boost creep above 4000 rpms in 3rd and 4th gear. Then we blew a brake line, and finally during the 2nd sprint race on Sunday we killed a wheel bearing. But it was a good building experience and we'll be better prepared for the next event. -mike
