[proud gonzo]

well, I wouldn't complain about it, but I would wish they'd spent their money on something else. But I'm not a fan of racecars anyway, so I'm not a very good gauge for something like this.

[soonerbrat]

i think it would be kinda fun...
i was just looking at this gift finding website and that was one in my price range

[IB4OU2]

pffft, I do that everyday on the Cimarron TPK leaving my job in Stillwater getting back to Tulsa.

[yermom]

that's pretty cool... i'd rather be driving, but that would be pretty cool.

i don't think i'd pay that much though

[Boarder]

I did the thing where you drive, not just ride at TMS. It was a blast but I'm into redneck NASCAR stuff. Whoever got it should have fun.

[soonerbrat]

i haven't bought it yet, it's just an idea

[gh55]

I did a ride along at the track at Disney World and it was ok. The
Mrs. got a lot bigger thrill than I did. I've heard the track at Kansas City
is better than the one at Texas.

[usmc-sooner]

a hawt naked chick, yeah I'll ride shotgun, some crazy redneck driving 200mph in a circle I'd pass.

[usmc-sooner]

I do know some guys who would love it. When I was stationed in Virginia and North Carolina those people were obsessed with car racing.

[HskrGrl]

My father in law would love that! What a neat site. I was searching for stuff in the Seattle area and found some fun ones

Rock N Roll Fantasy Camp (http://www.signaturedays.com/SignatureDays/pages/browse/browse_experience.aspx?&loc_id=29&exp_id=1913)

Porche 911 Carrera Cabriolet for a day (http://www.signaturedays.com/SignatureDays/pages/browse/browse_experience.aspx?&loc_id=29&exp_id=2206)

And for us girls :) (http://www.signaturedays.com/SignatureDays/pages/browse/browse_experience.aspx?&loc_id=29&exp_id=629)

[MextheBulldog]

Yeah, go for the driving vs. the ride. It's more expensive but better than a ride.

[soonerbrat]

i can't afford the driving.

[StoopTroup]

It's on my things to do before I die list.

And for us girls :) (http://www.signaturedays.com/SignatureDays/pages/browse/browse_experience.aspx?&loc_id=29&exp_id=629)wait, you get 125 miles in the Porsche for a day? That's like an hour and a half of driving. Or an hour of driving if you go really fast. That's dumb.

[HskrGrl]

The person who can afford that package can also probably afford the extra $1 a mile. It's kinda like when you see a huge house and say you would hate to live there because it would suck to clean but then you remember if you could afford a house like that you could also afford a maid. :P But I do agree that 125 mile is way too few.

Which one did you take, the Petty experience or another?
There are plenty of driving schools around that look pretty fun, if you have the dough and are into sprint cars then Dave Blaney's driving school would be awesome.
It used to have one course that went over the setup, a 20 lap ride with an instructor teaching you the different lines to run to maximize the horse power(since they don't have transmissions)and then....you get to run 100 laps against the other students. :D

[bluedogok]

I plan on doing a racing school to get a SCCA/NASA competition license next year. The Jim Russell Racing School (http://www.jimrussellusa.com/racingcourses/racingcourses.php) has a Speed & Spa school/hotel package (http://www.jimrussellusa.com/specials/speedandspa.php) at Sears Point in Sonoma for $4,995. They also have a 1-day driving experience for $595.

My sister won a Marlboro Racing School trip at Graham's a few years ago at California Speedway, they had a blast.

[Boarder]

The one I did was called Team Texas. I drove in one of Joe Nemechek;s old cars.

[jr4ou]

that would be a great christmas present....i need to do that
