I desperately want to make it to VIR this year. However, my wife and I are planning on adding a needy little bundle or at least starting that process. I may have to wait until August/september event for VIR and hope a fellow s2ker is going again this season.
If I can give you some advice, do all the track days you can BEFORE that process starts and you realize you can't afford it.
That's kind of the plan right now. We both agreed that we'll be starting in the fall and that we want this summer to be really good before the family comes. I made sure to include that meant more track time. However, I'm still sticking to my goal of paying off all my minor debts this year (credit card and car).

In the end I think it'll mean I'm back to detailing on a regular basis to support my addiction.

^^^Once it gets warmer, yes. I'm anticipating starting at the mid-end of march since winter has been mild so far.

Works for me. I don't care about the inside, just want the oxidization addressed once and for all. Whatever I am doing isnt working.

2 years ago we did it after the blizzards, only the track was plowed, there was a 2 foot wall of snow at the edge, so no run off room.

Yeah, no problem. Sounds like I have a fair amount of work already lined up. I know I have 1 s2000 loosely scheduled as well.

Wish you were booked for tomorrow too. We could have carpooled.
