Booking through Nirvana for car-free runners?

The remote locations of trail races is both a blessing and a curse. As someone who doesn't drive, access to and from the start line and accommodations is always a consideration in selecting a race. I'm wondering if there are folks who have used Nirvana to book for that reason and can speak about their experience.
I'm looking at running the Grindstone 50k in Virginia. Megabus or Amtrak can get me to the area. After that I'll probably need several local trips: to hotel, to and from packet pickup, to and from race, and back to train station/bus stop. Nirvana supposedly can provide those trips though they don't exactly offer details. Are there runners here who have used Nirvana for those trips? Are they more or less dependable than getting a rideshare? Is the price better or worse than a rideshare? Can you depend on rideshare early mornings in rural places?
