Welcome to registration for HYPERFEST!   

For 2016 we are excited to be back at VIR!  This will be our 15th annual Hyperfest, and this year we are adding the Tire Track Ultimate Track Car Challenge (UTCC) presented by Grassroots Motorsports Magazine to the mix!  We can't wait! 

The NASA portion of the event is for three days, UTCC is on Friday, and Hyperfest is the spectator portion on Saturday. Hyperfest will involve every square inch of VIR with on track and off track activities for all ages.  Racing, vendors, drifting shows/contests, helicopter rides, expanded children's area, contests with prizes, music and more are part of this one of a kind event.  Thousands of spectators will be watching you on track! Go to hyper-fest.com for more info about hyperfest activities on Saturday.

Please read all of the below very carefully as this is a special event with procedures and policies that differ from the regular NASA-MA events.  

Early bird pricing ended May 6.

**If your group is noted as full below, please sign up for the waiting list.  We do tend to get several off the wait list with the normal cancellations and additions of instructors, and chances are particularly good for getting a spot if you can get last minute notification (1-2 days before the event)**
