Catch a flight and come hang out. It'll still be fun.
 
I'm in 2 destination weddings this year, so this really isn't looking good for me :-(.
 
didn't miss it April 21st-23rd, in Virginia. there should be another thread that is more specific on the location.

Yeah, that was ninja-edited in after I commented.

I can't even navigate this forum effectively since the upgrade.

And the Facebook group is embarrassing.

Sorry, and thanks for updating the original post, Adam.
 
There is a pinned post on the fb group. I tried inviting everyone. I'm sorry if i missed anyone. Hoping to have hotels setup in the next week.
 
FYI - this is why you want to pay the money to go on the track. This video is from Spring Zing 2014 from my 4th and final session on the track. Yes the video quality is bad at times, nothing I could do about it at the time...
 
Been rather crazy trying to get everything in order. I would be thinking either package B1 or C, though I am curious why a hyperdrive at $75 would be $100 in the package, or is there something I am missing?
 
I had a mathematical blackout while preparing the package summary for Adam. Package B is actually $130, not $175....

Need more sign ups!

I am in for package A for sure.

If we plan on driving the track do we need to join one of the groups listed on the SVT superfest page?
 
You don't if you are doing hyperdrive or parade laps. Now full day of track yes. You have to meet the mechanical requirements for full track and hyperdrive.
 
A newly refurbished #2119 and I will be there. Considering the drive, I'm shooting for a Thursday evening arrival.
