Intermediate group (I got bumped up at noon) where I was starting to feel alot more comfortable with the track and pace.

Track looks super fun. Considering gopros usually flatten out elevation perception, you can see a good amount of elevation changes in the video! We had friends down there, can't wait to hear how it went for them.
 
Nice vid and nice pics. Very jealous. Now start saving for JGP 2013.

You were there? You should have joined us!

Yeah there were alot of red flags on Saturday in the Intermediate group. But there was a bunch of shenanigans going on as well. That's what happens when you mix a peeps who should be in Advanced in with Intermediates, cherrypicking.... LOL

Your vid is of the "Museum" corner and the angle of the shot doesn't truly reflect how much of a drop that is. If you've ever skied before you know that when sitting at the top it's MUCH more intimidating. You just have to trust in your tires, track surface and GOD! LOL

I was exactly where you took the vids on Friday and we were watching them run the Porche Driving School, apparently they had Porches that JUST came out on the market. George Barber is one hell of a guy and must have connections everywhere in the motorsports industry.

It was a GREAT time and I hope you enjoyed that museum as much as we did. What an awesome place! Some/All of motorcycle's iconic creations throughout history.

I was and still am mesmerized by the Britten bike. Seeing it in person makes it that much more unbelievable that it was hand crafted and took on the Works boys on their own turf!

I took 1500 pictures :) will post an album link after I upload them. Got some pics at the national corvette museum, and the jack Daniels distillery too.

Came down in my dads Volvo v70r, otherwise I would have joined the TD :(.

Silver hopefully you got some of a guy going and around in a High Visit yellow vest.

Fiery and Inferno, I say we come to Barber in March. This is a track and facilities that is genuinely world class. You guys HAVE to ride this roller coaster.

Did not get many of the track, camera was not that good. I am interested in coming back with the vfr next season possibly.

From the best info I can find it's closed from December to April. Looked at it ages ago as an option. In Feb time it's either JGP or Homestead.
 
Timmeh, my wife and I went down and enjoyed the Deals Gap area the week before and then continued down to Barbers for the weekend. Only 2 of us were on the track at Barbers, the wife doesn't seem enjoy riding it anymore but she can't wait for SMP this weekend.

When we talked to STT, they said they were there in March. Here's a link to the Barber calendar.

We should hit it this upcoming March. What say you?

Trimini I hope you enjoyed it as much as we did.
 
I'd be open to going in March...
