I was at a Test & Tune just recently. I think it was 30 bucks (12 for sepectator only), but you can get in 7+ runs if you get there early and don't take long between them.

For me, its about 55 minutes to get there. The final stretch is 301N to 234E.

It used to take @ 3 hours from Chesapeake. It is probably @ 40 minutes from where I live now.

MIR has always been a good time for me. I've only been a couple times though. Took about 3-4 hours from VB.

Warning: Beware of deer on 17.

Traumatic experience coming back from MIR last fall...

Me: "OMG did I just run over a deer?"
SignfcntOthr: "No, relax. It was just a bag of clothes"

phone rings from our friends in the car in front of us...
"DUDE did you see that DEER we just ran over"
Me: start flipping out
Sig.: laughs hysterically
