Description:
Experience first-hand the thrill and excitement of Race Car driving!
After a short classroom session where you will learn vehicle dynamics, racing lines, and safety instruction you will head out to the track to find your Late Model race car waiting.
You'll be behind the wheel of a lightweight race car coming in at approximately 2600 lbs, with a powerful Chevy Crate motor and 10 inch bias-ply racing slick tires.
Once you get behind the wheel a crew member buckles you in, checks your radio, and gives the "thumbs up" sign to your instructor. You will start your engine, hear that engine roar, and pull onto the track! Then the green flag flies and it is "pedal to the metal".
As your Instructor coaches you over the radio you will drive at your own pace building up confidence and skill with each lap. Feel the exhilaration from flag to flag as you experience authentic racing.
You can choose from a variety of lap options, but don't be surprised if you leave wanting more!

What a blast! This was a surprise gift from my wife, and it was just fantastic. The staff were terrific, they really went out of their way to ensure I enjoyed the experience. Cross one off the Bucket List!
My husband looked like a 5 year-old boy coming out of that stock car. The smile didn't go away for a few hours. What a thrill!
I am 70 and now I can cross driving a race car off my bucket list. It could not have been a better experience.
I had the greatest experience and time doing this. All the people were outstanding and friendly. This was one of my things that I was able to take off my "Bucket List". If I had the opportunity, I would definitely do this again!
I had the best time ever! It was an unbelievable experience that I hope I can do again one day soon.
The best gift ever!
I gave my husband a "NASCAR experience" for our 20th wedding anniversary as a surprise. He had a blast racing a real NASCAR car around a real NASCAR track! It was an unbelievable experience for him and me too!
Good experience!
