I found the staff to be delightful and the grounds to be very well kept. We were part of the company putting on the Blue Ridge Rock Festival and it was the most fun I've had working a gig in over 10 years!!! I can't wait to go back for BRRF next year!!

You must be associated with one of the car clubs like BMW, PORSCHE, MERCEDES etc. VIR also has private groups that offer driving experience or high performance drivers ed. You may want to contact FOR directly as sometimes they offer charity laps where for a $50 donation you can drive the track for a lap or two

How is Data service for Verizon Wireless out there? Or is there wifi?

Timothy Bungato | May 29, 2022
Brent Cook | May 29, 2022

From what I remember, I had no problems with Verizon service while at the track. I would even stream other races while watching the bikes and had no issues. I’m not positive, but I think Verizon may have an antenna very near if not on the VIR water tank.

VIR hosts two or three Charity Laps events each season. Community members are invited to make a small donation that entirely benefits a local charity, to take your car, truck or bike for a spin on the track. A VIR pace car leads the way, guiding drivers at highway speeds. Check out there calendar for the next Charity Laps event.

Facesofheroes | Sep 27, 2018

It will depend on the group. Many have restrictions on open top vehicles. Be sure to check with the event organizer before signing up. If you are just looking to take the Spyder on track for a few laps, not high speed, many of the car clubs have charity laps at lunch and the restrictions are less.
