nobody seems to have too many complaints about Barber...
Ill agree with you that Dragons ridge does look a little cookie cutter when compared with Beaver, CMP, or Shenandoah.
But its hard to get a feel for a track looking at the track map. VIR certainly doesnt look too inspiring from overhead.
Not sure how the elevation changes are going to be, its pretty flat in that area that they are building it
also keep in mind when you look at the track that its a 3 mile track. so its not as tight as it looks, probably a good amount of fast 3rd gear corners. that corner by the "bike trail" arrow looks devilish. i think that sand trap will end up getting a lot of use!
