Default VMP track rental!!! First time in the Shelby!!!!!

My Hubby( 07 blown sliver gt) and I took part in a track rental today at Virginia motorsports park. It was freezing all day, i think in the 30's. Track prep was GREAT, car hooked very well. We had a small head wind but i guess it didnt hurt much. There was a total of 25 cars. We both had our best times today also. I saved a few pics off a local forum of our cars. Im still waiting for him to post the pics of our fastest times. I should also have some video here soon after they post them on the local forum, then i will post them here.
