You might want to check your spelling. I'm sure the race is in Virginia. But I'm sure many want to see a virgina.:D

You'll likely have company this year. There is a local guy on a 250r that runs in the 40+ class.

CAW has the worst mx track I've ever seen anywhere. Absolutely hate it and won't even take my mx quad there when I go...and I have a 24' trailer so space isn't an issue.

I really like CAW (not as nice as Hatfield or Black Mountain but they don't have nearly the land nor any real destinations to shoot for like another town for gas and food) but you have to ride there at the right time. You need 22" tires when the ground is really wet or thawing out. Razr2 tires work great. I ride every trail but Trail 12 I think. It is always to messed up from the utility riders that don't know how to ride (put your damn slow *** quad into 4X4 mode instead of digging out the trails trying to climb like a 2 wheel drive).

You might as well plan on staying for Sunday too. When you pay at the gate to get in on Saturday, that will cover the whole weekend. Saturday consists of amatuer qualifying and the Pro-Am Unlimited & Womens races. Sunday usually hosts a full gate at every drop of the riders who were lucky enough to make the top 20 and the Pro-Am Production & Pro races. You won't be disappointed.

there are bleachers at a couple sections of track. You should bring chairs if you have them and keep in your car in case you want them. I pretty much stand the whole day and watch from the fence. Dragging chairs around is a pain.
