go to the event page here http://nasaracing.net/VIR_July_10/event.htm

click on the schedules, and you'll see how they refer to the 'groups.' the names are just a nickname really.

Going up the HPDE ladder now, roadracing license is my goal. Already have motorcycle roadrace license, that was a lot cheaper/easier to get, believe it or not.
If you are just getting started, my suggestion is a season of Auto-X first, unbelievable how those skills learned in a lower risk, less expensive enviroment pay dividends going forward!

i recommend never stop autoxing. i take it as a training tool for my brain and reflexes. there have been so many times on track where things got hectic and subconsciously corrected it, and i know it's the autoxer in me coming out.
