> around historic Danville, Virginia.
> 
> DAY 1: ROAD COURSE! Thursday, June 20, 2013: High-Speed Track Day at 
> Virginia International Raceway (VIR).
> 
> Recently chosen as one of Car & Driver’s Top six tracks in the nation, 
> and described by Top Gear UK as “world class,” VIR is a multi-purpose 
> road racing facility. We'll be running on VIR's 1.65-mile South Course, 
> with challenging twists, dramatic elevation changes, and the historic 
> Oak Tree corner! Open lapping sessions all morning with individual timed 
> laps in the afternoon. For those who may not have tried a track day 
> previously, we will be offering our introductory Taste of the Track 
> program, too.
> 
> DAY 2: DRAG RACING! Friday, June 21, 2013: Drag Racing at Roxboro 
> Motorsports Dragway.
> 
> Roxboro Motorsports Dragway is a 1/8-mile IHRA dragstrip with a 50-year 
> history and newly refurbished facilities with all the amenities you 
> would expect of a first-class facility. We’ll be offering both bracket 
> racing and head-to-head drags.
> 
> DAY 3: AUTOCROSS! Saturday, June 22, 2013: Autocross at Danville, Virginia.
> 
> We're currently working with the SCCA to secure the right site for the 
> autocross, and once all the details are locked in we’ll make the 
> announcement. Autocross is challenging for experienced drivers and

> What Kind of Car Can I Bring?
> 
> You'll see some of the nation's fastest race-prepared Corvairs at this 
> event, including Yenko Stingers, V8 Corvairs, and other rear-engine 
> creations. But you don't need a Corvair, and you don't need a race car. 
> We conduct the Corvair Olympics so that everybody gets plenty of track 
> time, no matter what kind of car you register. Our only restriction is 
> that your entry passes tech inspection. Among other things, all cars 
> need shoulder belts or harnesses and all drivers need to wear a Snell 
> 2005 or better helmet.
> 
> Do I have to enter all three events?
> 
> You may enter one, two or all three of the scheduled events. We’ll be 
> offering a special discounted rate for all three, but you are free to 
> pick and choose.

> Rules and Requirements:
> 
> Tech inspection and driver rules are post on the NECC website.
