Mazdadrivers VIR Grand 6/16-17

Anyone going? I'm waitlisted for NASA Hyperfest at Summit so I may try to sign up for this. They say only a few slots are left.

On an unrelated note, what does everyone do about their gas pedals on 3rd gen? It's too small and too far away (vertically and horizontally) from the brake pedal. I still can't believe they'd give us two racing-style pedals and one little plastic piece of crap.

Grand is fun to do once, but it's too long for a good teaching course (IMHO).

No track events this summer until we get our old house sold. I'm planning on running MazdaDrivers full-course in the fall.

Have fun,

Look at it this way, no events in June leaves more money for events in July, August, September...
