Get ready for an adrenaline rush unlike anything you've ever experienced!

Your racing experience begins with an orientation session with veteran car racing instructors. Next, you’ll suit up in a fire-retardant driving suit over your clothes and a full-face helmet. You’ll climb through the window and into the driver’s seat. A crew member will buckle you in tight and check your radio.

You’ll hear your instructor while you’re on the track. They’ll be giving you advice on braking points and changing gears so you can drive safely while still getting your speed up to a breath-taking level.

No racing experience is required!

With your loved ones on the sidelines watching you experience this once-in-a-lifetime, adrenaline-fueled heart-pumping, white-knuckle race car driving experience, you'll be laser focused on the track ahead with the roar of the engine drowning out every other thought. You’ll feel the synergy of man and machine as your 500 horsepower V8 engine rockets you around the track at speeds up to 150mph.

This is the perfect experience gift for the stock car racing fan in your life!
