This trip was taken in part because my brother was participating in the races the weekend that I went. However, this is a nice drive and a beautiful road racing track that has some top notch events. To see what races are coming up next view the schedule on http://www.virclub.com/ . The weekend that I went had a little of everything. It was the BMW club weekend, vintage cars and some Formula style racers as well. Here are some pictures I took:
About the drive: VIR is Southeast of Roanoke and takes about 2 hours, it is mostly on main highways, but not interstates.
