Come out for a full weekend of track practice at the Dulles I2S lot! The NYC guys are back for even more! Airplanes taking off and landing at IAD fly directly overhead, and in the right conditions their shadows pass directly over the track! We’ll be running a course on the nice lots where we usually run that takes elements we all need practice on from Willow Springs kart track. Grid/T-Race is available to set up for those who want to drill short track technique. Parking available on site. Within skating distance of Dulles Airport Metro station on silver line. If you don’t plan to metro to Dulles, please drive if you can, or ride at your own risk, as the surrounding roads aren’t conducive to PEV traffic. Charging and food are likely available within a mile on rideable roads, but don’t hold me to that. We’ll figure something out if it comes to it. I’ll have a small generator capable of about 800w on site.
