Doug at Summit Pt this past Nov, '04
Track Note:
The main circuit at
Summit Point is a
10 turn, 2 mile road
course. It's been
around since 1971
and a big part of the
SCCA NE Div.
Along side of it is the
'Jefferson' circuit. A 7
turn, 1.1 mile road
course that is home
to several annual
vintage races.
Recently completed
is a 3rd circuit, the
'Shenandoah'.

Here's Claude, in his
early days, on the
Jefferson Circuit at
Summit Pt. ->
Me, Jesse, and John in our paddock area at VIR with a fellow enthusiast.
Track Note:
VIRginia International Raceway was originally
built in 1956. It shut down in 1974, and
re-opened in 2000 with it's original
configuration (3.5 miles), and modified for 2
additional circuits (North & South course). It
has seen it's fair share of past and present
driving legends from NASCAR to Trans-Am.
John, at VIR, going into turn 4.
John and I stretch it out on the front straight at VIR, headed for triple
digits, before hitting the brake zone at turn 1.
November '03 at Lime Rock was interesting. Needless to say, it was a
real chore to keep any heat in the tires throughout the day.
Track Note:
Opened in 1957, Lime Rock Park is a 1.5
mile road racing circuit with some very
different and difficult elevation changes. It
requires a certain amount of driver fineness,
in order to get around the course
successfully.

Park, headed around 'West Bend'.

straight at Lime Rock.
<- Vin seen coming around turn 3 at
Lime Rock, with some pretty fast
company.
<- Honorable mention here to John Berger, a
fellow NASA instructor. This was his 'stroked'
LS1 Camaro SS (seen here on the front straight
at Lime Rock) that he ran in the O.L.A. He's now
driving the Electron Blue Z06 (below)
Track Note:
NHIS is a 1.6 mile road
course based off of the 1
mile oval. It is on the site of
the now defunct Bryar
Motorsports Park.
Here's Thom, about to enter the infield part of the course
