Volkswagen and SCCA inaugurate a new racing series this year, featuring 30 of the newest VW Jetta TDIs driven by 30 of the youngest upcoming drivers in North America from 16-26 years of age. The cars have been lightly-prepped by VW, making modifications to the suspension, brakes and transmission.
To celebrate the first race at VIR, eurotuner magazine and VWoA are leading a drive on Saturday April 26 to the racetrack from VW's new headquarters in Herndon, VA. We will meet at 7:30am and you'll get the opportunity to be one of the first visitors to check out the new facility and see VW's latest project cars, including the incredible RGTI and a new VW R32 turbo. The gathering will include a complimentary breakfast from VW and a free Driver's Gear swagbag.
After the gathering, we'll head 240 miles south to VIR and witness the new drivers and cars qualify. Participants will witness the exciting first practice and qualifying at 1PM.Sunday is race day at 4PM, so why not make a weekend of it? Hang around to see how this new one-make race series unfolds. It's guaranteed to be eurotastic!
Note:
Depending on the response, Volkswagen is hoping to waive VIR's admission fees for everyone who signs up for the cruise. Please register at the following link:https://www.trackdaze.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=69&Itemid=103
