So I've got my NASA even this weekend at VIR. Really excited to drive this car for the first time. I'll be sure to get you guys some pics.

Any last minute tips? It's a 2000 trans am WS6.

Tho I've never driven VIR, I hope to some day. The uphill esses have a spot that will bite an unwary driver, I recommend watching and understanding the difference in the lines these guys are taking there:
