    fun day

    Did the Richard Petty driving experience and it wasnt bad. I'm glad I didnt have to pay anything though. I drive faster on a day to day basis, it might have been better if I went to a longer track. Avg speed around the track was 91 mph and max was 106(only one person broke 106). I ended up with the top lap time of the 14 people in my group. As much as I was disappointed I'm glad I did it. Def pull a little bit of g's through the turns (turn 2 pulled the most cause you could be in the throttle). The cars def have some power I let the intructor get ahead in the turns so i could come out of the turns full throttlle then had to let off cuase you have to keep a 3-5 car distance back. They were giving away 8 more laps for 1/2 price but to me it just wasnt worth it. I'll stick to my car at the track going faster.

    I've done this twice in Orldando the first time with 5 laps few years ago and last year I did 10 laps. The top speed I was able to hit was 127. This was awsome as how tight those cars were around the turns.

    I did it a Chicagoland a cooulpe years ago. I agree, the speed isn't impressive (they get over a buck-30 there, too) it's hauling the mail into/through the turns. G's in the turns kick ass.
