VIR, Alton, VA, USA - 23rd September 2009

By: Pixiedustlady

Hi Mom!
I am back and unpacked from VIR.  I had a great time at the race track and loved watching the races! We camped out with our host's friends and got to meet a lot of new people. Here are my photos  with the other TVs and all the new things we got to see!!


Here we are at our pit area.  As you can see there is a pretty lake behind us and we fed the ducks in the evening time!!

Our host rides on Pirelli tires..... we have a big sign on the side of our trailer advertising that he uses Pirelli :)
http://i718.photobucket.com/albums/ww183/DarciesTVs/DSCN1204.jpg


Here we are at the top of Turn #4
http://i718.photobucket.com/albums/ww183/DarciesTVs/DSCN1205.jpg

Here we are watching our host going around turn #2

http://i718.photobucket.com/albums/ww183/DarciesTVs/DSCN1206.jpg





Here we are overlooking the entire paddock area.  The weather was nice and cool but a bit cloudy!

We go in the hot pit area and watch the bikes race down the front straight!! They are going up to speeds of 175 MPH

Our hosts friends son is riding his skateboard and gives us a ride!!

Here we are looking up at the scoring/start/finish tower.

The Porsche club of America was having a track day on the South Course so we went to the Porsche Paddock to take some photos!

http://i718.photobucket.com/albums/ww183/DarciesTVs/DSCN1234.jpg

We watched the cars practice racing around the track and we were amazed at how fast they went! My host did very well in the races and finished 7th, 8th and 10th.  There are usually about 30 bikes in each class so he did well!  I had a great time in Virginia and it sure is a beautiful state! I am glad I got to experience another race!!

Love
Baubles

Today was such a great day,not really,was really windy and snow and cold,but we still decided to spend a great day.We went sleding,
me,Synapse and our host mum.Estonians call it "Vastlapäev" when they go sledging and who gets the longest sledge,this person year is better.Nowadays people don't believe in it so much,but they still go sledging together with family.
