Know what you mean Richard . I started racing at VIR way back in 1966 in an E/P Porsche Speedster and remember that turn and tree well .... it`s been a fixture and seen in almost every motorsports publication over the years .
The track hasn`t changed over the years . When I started doing the HPDE stuff at VIR a few years ago , the track was like it was back in the `60`s ..... only better .
You`re right about the guardrails .... and back then , you could drive completely around the track along the inside as a spectator. I still have a lot of "back in the day " photos from VIR .
