I received this for a gift in 2000 and did this in an open-wheeled Indy car. You follow a pace car in front of you for approximatley 6 laps. As you keep up the pace car keeps increasing it's speed. It was a once-in-a-lifetime thrill!

The guys at Richard Petty Driving Experience are very professional, very safety conscious and make no secret of the fact that they are there to help you have fun. And any way you look at it - this was fun!!!
Unfortunately they sting you $99 plus tax for the video package or $17.50 per picture. So you get to see...

I wish I could have driven but the thrill of the ride was still great. I'll be back to try driving next time though.
I did a $99 ride along, and it was great. Three times around the track doesn't take long, but feeling the G's as you go around sure gives you an appreciation for what NASCAR drivers do.
Was awesome! I did the ride along which I would recommend unless you are an experienced race car driver because they pushed it harder and faster than I would have had the guts to. 175 mph. Was only $81.00 for 3 laps when two or more are doing it.
This was great! Did a ride-along and it was sooo much fun. You get the green flag and the checkered flag. You go 165 mph and it's a once in a lifetime experience. They video tape it and take your picture in the car with the driver. Words can't express how amazing this was!
My wife and I did the 'rookie tour'. About 1-2 hrs of class time and then onto the infield. You follow a pace car that directs you. This was the sinlge most exciting thing I've ever done. Try driving over 130mph on a 22 degree banked track! It doesn't get any better than this!
Hubby did this driving experience. He went with a driver as you are guaranteed going at least 160 miles per hour. He did the 3 laps then paid an extra $50.00 for another 3 laps. They put your laps onto a usb and you can also pay for a photo he loved it.
Did the 3 hot lap experience in May 2010 and really enjoyed it. Get the framed photo well worth it also.
must do if your into fast cars took the 10 laps and loved it
