Re: VIR race, 4th November, Derek Bell....

Hey, if folks want to have a International GT40s.com team competition we can set it up!

This VIR 13 Hour (VIR 13 Hour Enduro :: Index) has become quite popular in the US and is full this year. It is the second longest amateur endurance race in the US, and arguably the best amateur endurance race based on track and location.

Derek Bell is being seating in a ITE Miata (basically can run ANY engine so we don't know what will be in it - but it'll be fast with those fellows driving) with Gene Felton from Trans Am fame. We are also supposed to have a ex-F1 driver being seated in another Spec Miata, and a World Rally car driver in another. Should be pretty cool to be on the track with these guys.

We're doing five Spec Miatas as a team this year. We've got Malcolm's crew coming to race, and we've got a second UK group racing one of our other Miatas. The other three are driven by my group of drivers and some fellows US racers.

We'll get some pictures up as it progresses. VIR has wireless access and if I have the time I'll put some up as we move along.

Best,
Ron
