Pretty cool track but short....look up VIR:
http://virnow.com/track/configurations/

It's full course is 3.27 miles and I hit 130 on the front stretch, 142 on the back stretch (rode it in a Viper that hit 160). With elevation changes it's considered one of the best around. I agree it's addicting as hell!!!

Summit Point is another:

It's only 2 miles and has an in-car video on the web page. I still manage 130 before hitting the brakes down to 35mph in just 400 feet.

Track cars are fun. Kristy talked me into ours, and I am glad she did, even though she can out drive me half the time!

Forced fed turbo, Ohlins coilovers, etc etc.

I've been tracking my 2001 Corvette Z06 for the last couple of years. I run Time Trials with NASA SE and also instruct HPDE. It's more addictive than crack. My wife complains it takes away from boating time.
