Description:
Climb into a real Sprint Cup style stock car with a professional driver, sit back and enjoy the ride. Experience first hand what it's like to run qualifying laps at Michigan International Speedway!

Feel the G-force and the rush as your race car dives down into turn one then accelerates out of turn two just inches from the wall, reaching speeds up to 150 mph. Slower traffic up ahead? No problem as your driver puts the pedal to the metal and you blow right by.

After this heart pounding experience making laps, we guarantee you will climb out of your race car grinning from ear to ear. You're in for the ride of your life, so hang on tight!

Got a three lap ride along as a gift through Cloud 9. What a trip! If you get the chance you have to do this.

Randy Kerns

Everything from "start to finish" was everything I was hoping it would be. You do not realize what is all involved watching races on TV.
