Seriously. This weekend is shaping up to be a great one for ITA folks. All of the cool people will be there, are you cool?

Definately:
Muresan/Muresan - Integra
Richman/Puckett - CRX
Gray/Shultz - Miata
Giles/Shipp - CRX

Probably:
Amy - NX2000
VanSteenburg - Miata
Bitterman/Patterson - Sentra SER

Maybe:
Degioanni - Integra
Esteban/Reynolds - Integra

Plus I'm sure there's more I don't know about. Its possible we'll have as many as 10 quality ITA teams in these races.

This weekend offers 2 Enduros at 1.5 hours each along with practice and qualifying. So its nearly 4 hours of seat time. Even if you live far away, this IS the weekend you want to make that trip to VIR you've been talking about, especially if you're an ITA pilot. I'm about 11 hours one way, and I can't wait.

Probably going to be difficult for Steve to get there with his Sentra since he left today for 10 days of snow skiing :birra: Chuck

There were several ITA ECR regulars that didn't run any ECRs last year. A couple of those are back this year along with a few new teams.
The more the merrier. :birra:

Bobby said about a month ago that he and Steve would be there in the Sentra. <shrug>

We will be there in our #46 CRX. Also we will be picking up our second CRX up there that will be available for rental for the rest of the year. [email protected]

..... I guess I&#39;m not cool enough to be mentioned with the other ITA drivers, not a problem. With my fresh motor and 200lb lighter car I might get noticed.

Are you kidding? I already have my "Go Rick, Go" stickers on order for my Miata!

:smilie_pokal:

It should be a great event in ITA. The BEST class in IT! :ph34r:

Andy,

... I guess I better see how things work out. Instead of running ITA I might be in ITS for the ECR. I will be running ITA in the SARRC race. And I will be co-driving the new #98 SM for Team Highball running it&#39;s debut races in the ECRs that weekend. I should be busy ..very busy.. wouldn&#39;t have it any other way.....

Why couldn&#39;t this have been announced a week earlier? :bash_1_: Stupid none refundable plane tickets....

Scott, I may seriously make you call me (on the beach, Corona in hand) from pit lane and let me know what&#39;s going on. :P

Ill be there running the sprint race, and helping in the pits for Muresan. So who is running the sprint race besides me and Ricky?

If I go I will run both ecr&#39;s and the sprint races...in the ITA integra for SARRC, one enduro in ITA Integra and split one in Miata...

Scott, the Sentra is close but Steve and I both have had a very busy schedule. I have been getting customers cars ready for the season and Steve had some big projects for a car show. I am also beginning to think the E30 ita bmw might be the car to have. We prep and build a few of those things for bmw club racing and the performance numbers are good and it is rwd. At 2550 its hp to weight looks very good!!

We&#39;ll be running the Saturday ECR and the sprint on Sunday.

Hotshoe, you are definitely cool enough. I mentioned you in the IT7 thread and my money&#39;s on you at VIR!
Evan, you know you want to make this event.

I&#39;ve been looking forward to running VIR again for a long time. Can&#39;t wait!

Steve,

Nick will be there testing some GAC stuff but I have a feeling the new owner of the blue 04 will want to go too. Be gentle!!!
