Season 34 Historic Trophy – Round 4 – VIR : Virginia International Raceway Round 4 takes us to Virginia.
In 1955, a group of North Carolina car enthusiasts began their search for a possible racetrack location.
They soon found the perfect site on the state line on land owned by the Foote Family and VIRginia International Raceway opened for business in August of 1957.
The group leased the property as Sports Car Enterprises.
VIR’s first official event was an SCCA race that attracted stars like Carroll Shelby, Carl Haas, Bob Holbert, Augie Pabst, Bob Grossman,
Don Yenko, Dr. Dick Thompson, Walt Hansgen and Bruce Jennings.
Shelby, who would later go on to worldwide fame by winning the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 1959 and creating the iconic Cobra sports cars in the early 1960s,
won that first feature race at VIR in a Maserati 450S.
The lconic Texan uttered a quote about the track that is remembered to this day, “one lap at VIR is like a hundred at Watkins Glen.”

The chassis token system is explained on the Historics Trophy standings page.
Please restrict chat to pit messages including at the end of the race until ALL drivers still racing have crossed the line.
A driver must have sufficient tokens for the chassis he drives in the race. Any driver who does not have sufficient tokens will be disqualified from the result and his tokens will be set to zero.
The chassis a driver uses in qualifying are disregarded when determining his token spend.
Note: This is to cater for the instances when a driver either does not start or inadvertently joins with the wrong chassis and subsequently rejoins the server in another.
Any tokens not spent at the end of the season are ignored and are not used to determine championship positions in the event of a tie.
PRO rules means Shift-Rs are not allowed at any time and the damage model is realistic.
Drivers must complete 50% race distance to score.
Available Tokens:Note: These are the tokens available to each driver
before the 10 tokens are added for making the race start.
