Hyperfest 2018 - VIRginia International Raceway May 18-20 - Senor_Taylor - 02-27-2018
http://hyper-fest.com/
Hyperfest is the ultimate motorsports destination and this year it's at VIR on May 18th, 19th and 20th. NASA Road racing, Drifting, Lawn Mower Racing, Burnout contests, RallyCross, Bike racing, car shows and much more! This weekend is the weekend most of us anticipate all year and there is NO reason not to make out. Hotels are on site and nearby, but the best action is camping out with everyone either in the camping area or the NASA paddock if you're lucky enough. DO NOT MISS THIS EVENT!

Camping/Parking
1) Unless you have a NASA pass, you're parking in the big Field outside the NASA paddock. (To your right after crossing the bridge)
2) Camping is technically only in the camping areas outside the paddock (think the areas on the road before you pass the pond on your left and stop at the stop sign in the paddock near the gas station). A camping pass is required
3)We usually get away with non workers camping by the showers in the NASA paddock without a camping pass, but you'll need to park outside the paddock (see 1)
4) since you can't park in the paddock without working, it's safe to assume you'd be sleeping in your car in the lot, which will not fly with the VIR people since you'd be cheating the system
So either your options are, Get a NASA pass and sleep in your car in the paddock, or get a camping pass and sleep in a tent in the paddock (leaving your car in the lot) or camping with the non NASA people outside the paddock. MM'ers that need a camping pass, please post up here.
All students camping should get together and think about whose vehicle will be most useful to get in and out of the paddock and use that one. Ditch all the rest in the parking lot. (smart money says someone with a pickup or large vehicle should be chosen)

Signed up to drive already and hopefully work part time. Should be in DE3. Maybe I'll feel comfortable to give some students rides
RE: Hyperfest 2018 - VIRginia International Raceway May 18-20 - Jake - 02-27-2018
Racing and announcing per usual. If I have some tires that are on their way out, happy to take a few students for rides.

I'm out this year. Going to Sedona, AZ the following (long) weekend with the wife so I can't take two short weeks from work in a row. Have fun y'all!

No Polen, you're coming. Bring an RV again.

Bro. Polen. C'mon. Y'all know I'll be there. I might see about running the circuit cross Felton does on Patriot.

Hopefully next year fellas. The guy that brought the RV had a kid so I may need to find other options. Got plenty of time to plan it though.

Hm, this Superb-Fest sounds interesting. I might have to check it out. Might be busy that weekend though.

I don't think they make you pay a fee to pitch a tent. $50 for an RV.

Out. Laura is looking for someone to replace me in my normal green shirt duties. Lemme know if you are interested. Golf cart, schwag, dinner on Sat all provided.

Shoot me or Justin a message if you'd like to work. (Work doesn't have to be full time commitment, you can help out for a few hours each day and get free entry or something. Just be on your game when we need you).

Fairly certain they charge to camp because they tried to get me on time even though I was camping in the NASA paddock. The guy at the gate heard "Camping" and his mind was set.

4 weeks. 4 weeks!
RE: Hyperfest 2018 - VIRginia International Raceway May 18-20 - Scott - 04-23-2018
Considering racing (if there are more than the usual 2 cars in my class that have been showing up), or if not, potentially seeing if Laura will let me in sneak in to DE4 so I can do some coaching with a couple instructors who have asked for some help.
