I'm just so proud of my little girl - she's only 28.For my upcoming birthday she bought her old man 10 laps in a Busch car at Memphis Motor Speedway. She says all she knows about the old man's '69 Mach I is the "big blue thingy," air cleaner. She used to pass me tools as I worked on it -the car, not the air cleaner. Hot damn, it will be fun. ------------------

They have a Petty driving school at the Speedway in Vegas, and I've been throwing the idea around to go and try it. Seems like it would be a blast!------------------

Got to Memphis Motorsports Park, went through class, suited up, was next in line, IT POURED. Go back 8/13. Drive On - Nice little concept, you follow a pace car around one car length behind and they build speed until you don't follow well. Will update. ------------------

I did the Richard Petty Driving Experience at Orlando, they would not let me go past a max of 125 MPH. I got waved at twice for trying to pass. They frown on that. They should have hired faster pace car drivers.:-)

One of their promos indicated that someone did a lap of 103.3 on a 3/4 mile track. I'm supposed to stay a car length back and tag along. Supposedly if I folow well, they keep bumping it a 100 revs or so per lap. Go back 8/13 for the fun ride.------------------

Buddy went to the one here and did it. Said it was awesome. Same thing, as you keep going up the speeds until you get squirrelly. He was booking, I forgot the final speed, said he wished he would have had about 10 more laps though. He was just getting cushioned when it was done time. Got a nice plaque and all.
Good luck and have a blast man!
