The perfect present for stock car racing fans – a gift that feeds their need for speed! 

Your driving adventure begins with a team of racing veterans bringing you up to speed on racing techniques like how to enter and exit the track, flags, passing, finding the line, safety procedures and much more. Next, you’ll get dressed in a fire-retardant driver’s suit over your clothes, HANS Device and a full-face helmet.

No previous racing experience required! 

Now for the part you’ve been anxiously waiting for! Climb through the stock car’s window, slid into the driver’s seat, and get buckled into your 5-point racing harness.  You’ll have a one-way radio connected to your helmet.

As you are racing around the track, you'll get feedback from the pit crew on all aspects of racing including changing gears, cornering, and break points. They are with you the whole way helping you drive safely while getting your speed up to an incredible level.

No pace car to follow - No instructor in the car
All laps are hot laps -  Passing allowed
How fast  you go is up to you!

In the car, on the track, it’s just you alone making the car go faster and faster. This is as close you can ever get to real stock car racing!
