In reply to Tom Suddard :

Thanks for the reply. I am assuming that this is a different track set up than what Car & Driver uses for the Lightning Lap as their best time was over 3 minutes a lap.

Lightning Lap, iirc, uses VIR's "Grand Course" which is a combination of the "original" Full Course and the Patriot Course inside of it that got added during the revival of the track in ~2000(?).

I'm fairly certain OneLap used just the regular Full Course configuration.

Correct on both accounts.

At past OLOA visits to VIR, we have run back-to-back North and South short courses in the am, followed by Full in the afternoon.  Apparrently, this has become cost prohibitive of late.

Anyone else constantly refreshing waiting for the updates from the final 2 days of One Lap? 

I always enjoying following along with the GRM effort every year and I'm anxious to see the final result(s) for Andy and Tom this year! 

Final update should be up soon.  I've seen a proof.

It was epicly hectic getting through the final two days and returning the car to stock, while making our 4:15 flights out of SB on Saturday.  And to be honest, we were both mentally exhausted by then -- so the piece woulda been kinda lame.
