Would love to do a few laps in the car

MatI · 06-27-12, 04:54 PM

I did one of those Petty experience drives about 10 years ago now. I recommend it if you ever get the chance.

shaunovery · 06-27-12, 05:00 PM

Yeah I'm going Vegas in November and I've seen it advertised for about 100 dollars

Seems no one told ESPN! He's listed on the driver pick'em in two matchups!

I guess they'll get around to canceling it. Too bad, it was heads up vs. Denny and Brad and that's easy.

I did the 30 lapper in Vegas about 6 years ago, and it was a great experience! 3 10-lap sessions behind a pace car, a little faster each time out, topped at 138. slid up towards the wall coming out of turn 2, added to the excitement a bit. And I did the 8 laps at homestead 3 years ago just to feel it again. no pace car at homestead, I think they eliminated that from all the experiences. I too highly recommend if you get the chance.

I did the ride-along too, but actually kind of bored me. I'd rather be behind the wheel and not a passenger.

Can we be shocked that ESPN is slow

Pretty much the same format as me. Mine was at Charlotte Speedway though. The sessions go way too quick but well worth it. I had the pace car in mine, except for the last session, but like i said, mine was a long time ago, im not sure if they still use it at all. That final session was pretty good, the last few laps I was really getting confident and pushing the car fairly hard, even had to use some opposite lock in the middle of 3/4 on my final lap.

Shaun, Vegas would be an awesome place to do it, nice and fast!

Mikey, which track did you do it on?

Reno Paul · 06-27-12, 07:19 PM

He should drift before race time, unless they have taken a crazy flood of money on him already.

Sounds like we have the same menu down here. What on earth is a bloomin onion?

My grandfather used to say 'bloomin' this and 'bloomin' that a lot... so it seems this dish translates as "Fuukin Onion" to me

Do like the look of the menu. I often go to a place called Ribs n Rumps that sounds similar, but is WAY more expensive.

5mike5 · 06-27-12, 07:30 PM

i personally haye inions

but its batter fried onion rings with a dipping sauce...its an app, not a dinner

Lots of people. Often seen threads asking. Most seem to be done inside a week though I think.

Don't worry, it'll happen. After they get to it to start with, they have to ask the site to confirm the deposit. They might take time to do that, then someone has to receive the confirmation and approve you.

5mike5 · 06-27-12, 07:33 PM

added HAMLIN (+325) for nationwide

have Keslowski already (+475)

that it for me besides a matchup maybe

and kes (+275) in trucks, doubt i take anything else for that
