Great opportunity for someone in the area and wanting to "check out" their Corvette on the track:
From NCM eNews:
"PrimeDrive Driving Program Opens

A new driving event called PrimeDrive has been designed to provide enthusiasts a sample of what our more comprehensive multi-day driving event programs offer. This new program is being introduced at our High Performance Driving Event at Virginia International Raceway on June 30, 2008.

Open to just 25 registrants at a cost of $75, students will receive classroom instruction, a lap session on the track with an instructor and a ride-along during an instructor run session. This mini-school will allow participants to sample a driving program with minimal commitment to help them evaluate the opportunity in participating in a full scale driving school. Students interested must be driving a Corvette Coupe, Z06 or FRC and meet the event tech standards – helmets are required. Information and registration will be available on Tuesday, May 13 via the VIR HPDE event page on our website at: National Corvette Museum "

I registered yesterday for the Prime Drive on June 30. I have never raced before and am looking forward to getting my 2003 C5Z on the track.

Excellent! See you there. Since you won't be "racing", I edited the quote above ...
You'll want fresh fluids and good pads (stock Z06 pads are fine). Buncha stuff in the HPDE checklist stickey here ... but that's overkill for an orientation session ... see you there!

Thanks for your reply. I belong to the Corvette Club of Richmond and will be attending with our President. He is bringing his C6Z.
