I will preface this by saying I know most of you could care less. But, if you find a place where I can drive an F1, then let me know. I

i did something similar at Rockingham. (buddy baker school i think).... it was fun but sure as hell not $950 fun..... I think total that i was in the car was maybe 30 minutes.... it was 2 summers ago.

we did the same bunch of guys in a van on the banking.... then follow the instructor then 2 sessions of drive as fast as you want but of course they flagged us to slow down once we were having fun....

how much was the Richard Petty thing?

It was $399 for 8 laps and 99 for the 3 lap ride. I think 16 laps is 699.

NASCAR?

http://www.racingschools.com/formula...ool_list.shtml

http://www.bondurant.com/

These are as close to F1 as I could find off the bat. My dad said that if I want to go to a 4day at Bondurant he would pay for it, so I'm thinking about doing that in late May. You get to drive C6's and "Formula Fords" for four days of track instruction.

I did the Petty Driving experience at Disneyworld. What an outstanding time I had. I wish I did the 10 lap package instead of the 3. I was just starting to get the hang of it!!!!

Here's some F1 information
