This is for those that have done it. What did you drive? And was it worth it?

Please keep the negative $hit out of here.

There was a post awhile back but it's probly 3-4 pages deep by now. Seems like there was mixed reactions. Until Old Fag hijacked it. ???There was a place that had coupons out for 1/2 price maybe but I don't remember where I seen it. Might have been Groupon???

I've done it twice in a late model at atomic speedway. First time was great, the car seemed to just roll over in the corners and I had no problem, 2nd time in a different car I fought it and could not get the car to drive. It just pushed through the corners no matter what I tried. Good people and a great experience just be patient.

My recommendation is to get on their mailing list and jump on a discounted deal when it comes along. I drove a late model for 15 laps at Tazewell Speedway, have no racing experience so I was not doing much more than riding around and trying to get a feel for things. Definitely worth it and would do it again, particularly at a different track. The banking at Tazewell is over 30 degrees and that was pretty intense, I'm sure a track with less banking would be a completely different experience. Years ago I did a Richard Petty Experience at Las Vegas (asphalt of course) and while that was run in a more professional way, the dirt experience was much more fun for this dirt track fan.

I checked on Groupon and they have some offers through there. A few were up to 55% off. You just buy it through Groupon, print the receipt out and bring it with you and present it to them or let them know ahead of time when you schedule. I believe is how it works or atleast how it did when I bought tickets for a museum a few yrs ago.

I raced karts for several years. I wanted to do this last year but I had bad things then, and wondered if it would take a year or so to shake the bugs out of the program, so I didn't do it.

It still seems from that other thread it's mixed reviews, so I don't know yet.

Do it. If people don't support it and it goes away, you'll wish you'd done it. Yeah they were having some car troubles the day I was there, but I got my turn and it was great.
