I'm going to Virginia International Raceway June 23-25 for a 1/2 day with the Bertil Roos Racing School. Not a bad deal for $500 (xmas gift from my wife):
1 hour classroom
1 hour with instructors in the school Volvos
3 20 minute sessions in the FF2000s.
No rev limits
Passing is allowed in all sessions
No liability if you wreck the car - not that I'm planning on that!

I'll post pics when I get back next week.

It's been 30 years since I've driven a single seater, so I'll see if my a$$ can still fit in that little seat!

That's awesome man. Have fun and come back and share what you learn. I need all the help I can get.

to live by:
1) shiny side up
2) when in a spin = both feet in!
3) when in doubt = both feet out!

See pix in original post! Great fun! The cars handle great, but I'll take the S2k engine over the FF2000 engine any day.

VIR makes Mid-Ohio's hills look tame! We used a 1.6 mile 11 turn section of the 3.2 mile track. The section we were on had 150 ft of elevation change with several blind turn-ins and braking zones. Several turns had tricky off-camber exits that wanted to suck the car off the road. Most of the corners were 2nd gear, so average speed was only about 70 MPH. This would be a great place to drive an S2k!

I got in car video of session 1. About 30 minutes in a car spins across my path off the exit curbs on a 180! Need to figure out how to do video capture and e-mail him the file. I'll bring it to the decal party tomorrow.

Let's see....where can I get $750 an hour it would cost to keep this fix going? Oh yeah....There were some guys in IMSA that used to sell drugs to support their racing addictions - Don and Bill Whittington I think!
