NVCC members interested in caravanning up should meet at Newgate Shopping Center parking lot (corner of Routes 28 and 29 in Centreville) at 6:20 AM, leaving at 6:30 AM SHARP for a very nice scenic cruise through the mountains on the way to the drag strip. We will make a secondary stop at CFA Sterling at 6:45 to pick up more Corvettes interested in caravanning to the track. Please be on time, we will not wait for stragglers.

If you are interested in riding up with me, please email me at lilredcorvette94@yahoo.com and let me know. There will be plenty of people on hand to help you if you have never drag raced before, so don't be shy. Come see what your car can do in the 1/4 mile! Learn the finer points of reading the "Christmas tree", staging, and launching. After the event, we usually grab lunch together and decompress after a fun day of racing.

Folks, so far the weather forecast is in our favor, so this event is a 'go'. Any updates will be emailed and posted on the website.

So far I have Corvetters meeting up at either the Centreville or Sterling meeting points (see above). If you wish to join us and have not replied, please do (full name and which caravan meeting point, please) so that I can have enough direction sheets printed.

All payment and general event information is above....please read completely!
