Re: Changing SBRS Groups

I think I can pretty much vouch for everything Robby stated here. After a 4 year layoff from doing race weekends, I'm pretty rusty, so I wound up in the bottom third of my group. Even though right now a podium is out of the question, ultimately I think the single group format is a better system and I will value whatever result I get much more and can compare it similarly to the guys winning.
The one thing I will say mirrors one of Robby's comments. The really quick young guys need to display a little more courtesy, they are obviously fast enough to pass wherever they choose, but they need to allow a little more room for the driver being overtaken. I had my nose chopped more times than I care to admit.
Other notes from VIR - anyone who hasn't tried the "lead follow" must try it, its fabulous. I had my first LF session with Rob and he helped me immensely.
The track is simply amazing, especially the esses.
The people running the track - very friendly.
All in all a great weekend.
