Richard Petty Driving Experience
Some of you on here have done it already but for those of you that haven't driven a 650 horsepower nascar prepped race car it is a pretty nice thrill ride. The track in the Orlando area is just outside the gates of the Magic Kingdom in Disney. I received this as a Christmas gift and let me tell you it was the best present I've ever gotten. They start you out with a short class and a few laps around the track in a van to show you the proper lines for driving the track. Basically when you get going and actually drive you shadow/tailgate behind a pace car and he gradually picks up speed based on your competence and performance on the track. It's only a one mile long track so the staights are pretty short and I was only able to get up to 130 mph which doesn't sound too fast but let me assure you going that fast into a high banking turn will definately wake you up . Some people drivng were scared out of their mind and were only doing about 70mph while others like myself were having the ride of our lives. I've drag raced, autocrossed and done Sebring and this is definately at the very top of the list by far for a pure adrenaline rush. I couldn't stop smiling for at least two hours afterwards.
