Wow that would be fucking epic. My parents own the Shell station right there on 460/85 at the VMP exit.
I would be there all the time, seriously.

VIR isn't really that much further....for all the guys who would magically start going now.
I hope this is true, love to have another local track.

VIR wants me to buy a $750 roll bar for the privilege of driving there. Insurance costs are the same, but VMP is close enough that I wouldn't even need a hotel room. While VIR is out of my price range, VMP is tantalizingly within reach!

You don't need a hotel at VIR, camping is allowed.
Even if they didn't require you to have a roll bar, there's no way in hell I would go on track without one in a open top car. I've seen a hand full of roll overs, even in HPDE.

Re: VMP plans to build a road course.
You're probably going to need a rollbar at any road course if you've got a convertible.
