Andy,
I have been looking for a riding partner. My HD has been sitting most of the summer (since Bike week).
Maybe I can fit my bike and the GT in my trailer hmmm.
First rally for me
DBK told me this year they would let us poor boy's attend as long as we don't ask the others for autographs every 5 minutes.

Tom - looking forward to it! We typically treat the first-timers "extra special" ..You will have a great time.? Are you coming alone? have you plotted your route down from Detroit yet?

VIR track rules???? I've reviewed the 2010 VIR Rules/Regs and have searched the forum but don't see any requirements concerning on-track safety equipment. I have an SA2005 open faced helmet, but no racing suit, gloves, or shoes. Are they req'd? Harness, extinguisher, tech inspection?
I'd hate to get there only to be invited to leave the track for lack of gear. Thanks.

Usual - approved helmet (not motorcycle), long sleeve shirt, long pants, shoes that tie. No actual requirement for suit, racing harness, extiguisher, etc. Usually no tech inspection- it's assumed your car is in top shape regarding brakes, fluids, tires, etc.

Just signed my son and I up. Very nice sign-up web site DBK. It's nice to have all that info in one spot.
Motorcycle helmet crash protection is same as auto. The difference is the fire resistant liner but if you're not requiring fire suits who cares if you use a motorcycle helmet?

Special Ed, all the events I've been at have checked helmets for the 2005 certification. No motorcycle helmets were allowed. I would hate for a newbie here to buy something and not be able to use it at other events. BTW, my next acquisition is a HANS, so you and DriveBy can give me some counsel.

I will have my Harley in the trailer with the GT. Will be around the area a couple of days early to ride the roads on both the bike and in the GT. Always more fun with others.

Seems we went through this last year and it was determined (at least for those tracks) that a motorcycle helmet was allowed, as long as it had the right Snell certification, which I believe at the time was 2005. So, I guess the question is, "what does/will VIR require?"
Ed, I do believe the other difference is the MC helmet may be a single impact, as the SC is designed for multiple impacts?

I noticed on the VIR web site that the kart track rules mentioned a closed face helmet, please check that also. Thanks.
