VIR 400 - April 27-29

[Lynn]

If anyone is going to VIR for the races on 4/27-29, we should try to get together at some point(s) during the weekend, maybe we could meet for lunch each day.

New this year: DP and GT will be separate 400K races; Star Mazda Series; Skip Barber National Championship Series; SunTrust Moto ST Series, an endurance-racing series for twin-cylinder, four-stroke motorcycles, which will stage a 500km race
