Anyone else ever do this, I did it a few years ago at Las Vegas Speedway, it was a blast, got up to 139.4, that's me squezzing my big fat butt into the stock car, not bad for a redneck, if you ever get a chance to do it, do it, it's bad azz.

I did the Drive tech experience and that was pretty bad ass. I was up to about 165 for 45 minutes and didn't have the lead/follow setup like Petty.

The cool thing is you're driving a real 600HP stock car by yourself 2-3' from the wall, it took me a few laps to get up to my top speed, anyone that says these guys aren't athletes are crazy, I was wore out when I was done.

I hate nascar but did this at the ca speedway a few yrs ago. I was disappointed in the cars being either detuned or had a gas pedal limiter but I guess I understand why. I really didn't feel I got my money's worth. I walked away hot and sweaty and disappointed. I guess I know now what my wife is always feeling. Lol

Weird, because the car I had would have gone much faster if I felt comfortable going faster, maybe I'm sure I'll go faster if I ever do it again, but 140 was fast enough for the first time.

I had my foot through the fire wall and was super comfortable. I like to go fast. The car I was in had a detuned nascar engine in it. It wouldn't go faster then 142. I was hoping for 190's with my eyeballs vibrating out of my head.

Speaking of Vodka. Went to a wedding Friday night with a beer and wine hosted bar. Well yours truly wanted Vodka. Problem is all they had was airplane Vodka. What the hell, can't be that bad can it? YES. YES it can be that bad. I'm pretty sure my head was gonna split wide open around 1am. I've never been hit in the head with a bat, I have been hit with various other items lol, but never a bat. I'm pretty sure the pain has to be about the same. My only mistake was not getting the name of this Vodka. So there is a chance that I could be hit in the head with a bat again in the future. No bueno.

My mind is suppressing Vodka labels right now. Guess the damage was worse than I thought lol. I like Tito's, but I like Chopin much, much better. Potato Vodka. No headaches ever from Chopin for me.

Potato vodka give me a slight head ache. Vodka from grains im good to go. Titos is made from corn and leave no headache either. Its def the new ish.

You guys are talking about alcohol, I didn't have a drink like a week before I did this run, now after later that night I got hammered at Mandalay Bay, needed to unwind a bit.

William and I did it at CA speedway. The night before was my uncles birthday we were on a party bus till 3 am and had to get up at 6 am to do this. WMC had a lot of gum in his mouth and did the fastest lap of the day I think 162 mph and I did a ride along 185 mphhttp://img.tapatalk.com/d/13/09/10/9yqesevy.jpg

139 is a solid number and just about the same speed danika runs every weekend.
