Spectators are welcome; there's no admission fee to spectate, just sign in as a spectator when you come through the gate & they'll give you a wristand. There's a small set of bleachers to watch from, but a lot of people bring beach chairs. We'll try to get the first car off about 10:30, and generally run for about 3-4 hours.
I tell you what, though, it's hard to watch and not want to drive! If you think you'll want to drive, come early, by about 9:00 or so, so you can get registered and teched and walk the course.

Thanks Glad you enjoyed it! I came once and was hooked; it's great to actually be able to drive our cars to the limit without having to worry about traffic or large immobile objects. Today was my first time doing the safety talk, but SCCA has a cheat sheet which makes it pretty straightforward. I didn't take any photos today, but I do have my in-car video:
This was my fastest clean run @ 45.615. My fastest run was 44.304, but I creamed 4 cones, and forgot to turn the camera on, DOH!

I'll post the results here as soon as Greg puts them up. It's usually within a day or two. Photos are often posted here in here or in the VA Driven automotive gallery forum.
