Skill enhancement day

[hagerp]

Hi,

I'm fairly new to NESBA (just 2 track days) and I noticed that there will be a couple of "skill enhancement days" at VIR in May. Can you tell me a bit about the difference between an SED and a regular track day? I didn't find much when I searched the forum.

thanks
Paul

You definitely should do it. The link that Jay had in his reply will let you know what it is all about and what the schedule for the day is. I sure wish there was a SED day for advanced.

I hate to tell you, Ricarcdo, but you realize you can only go one day..which for you would be the second SED at VIR on the schedule....unless you're going to support a friend in B group...which is always cool.

At the first ever SED at Beaver, I rode on the first day (Saturday) because I was in B group (Sept. 2007). Sunday was Intermediate's day and I was pit support for my two friends.

Good times!

Correct, he can ride the SED day on the 14th, and the regular day on South on the 15th.
The SED day is Thursday the 13th.

Is it Spring yet????

 

[trickyricky]

That's what I thought, so 14th and 15th are good to go;

Yup, see you there!

Looking forward to it all, it's too long for me off the saddle....

Just FYI, the South Course is awesome. It seems like South gets dissed because VIR has the North and Full courses seen as the premier configurations, but for what it's worth I think VIR South is the best value on our schedule. It really has a good variety of different types of turns, including a mini "corkscrew" and it's fast. Not nearly as technical as the north course, but technical enough that skill makes the difference. It's one of my favorite tracks.

The more I read about it, the more I itch to start :banghead:

I agree. I like the South and North course. I really don't care for the full course.

Yeah. Thanks. That Friday SED fucked my plans for that weekend.... I may go to NJ and try Lightning instead now.
