Unsponsored Content: Fifty Dolla Track Daze Yo

It’s one of those too-good-to-be-true things that turns out to be true anyway: Volkswagen is sponsoring a fifty-freaking-dollar trackday at Summit Point’s Shenandoah Road Course. You need to be a VW owner and you need to bring that VW to the track. There are probably a few other little caveats and fine-print things in the registration as well, but generally this is what it sounds like: a stellar opportunity to get on-track with one of the best organizations in the United States.

Your humble E-I-C was scheduled to be an instructor at this thing, but I just got out of the hospital with some pretty fire-resistant pneumonia and I won’t be up to speed in time to come hang out. Have a good time without me, okay?

    Damn, sounds like fun and not a unreasonable drive for me. However, I don't think our VW Jetta would make it, and if it did, would probably fall to pieces during the first few laps.

    Will there be other Mustangs allowed, or just the one in the picture? Hope you feel better soon

    VWoA reps will be stationed at the entrance writing down VINs in order to void warranties. :-)

    I would be interested in such an event on the North West coast.
