Its funny,

My wife was so excited to give me the news, yet nervous, because it was a stock car, not an open wheeler.   She knows me too well.

She was also nervous because she thought I might really like to drive instead of ride.  I said " you get to go 30-50mph faster riding", that's all me!  

It's theRichard Petty Experience.      3 laps  165-180mph @ Indy!!!

Check the dude's "perma-grin" 3/4 of a lap into the ride.            ;D

Cool that she appreciated all those subtleties ... but of course that will be a total blast, no question.

Yeah, NO complaints here. 

Apparently my mom is buying that same video for me for my b-day.  So, it will get posted!

Awesome BP! I know when I did the Mid-Ohio school over the summer I wasn't going nearly that fast but I was screaming my head off just for driving on a real circuit.

Hope you enjoy the experience, Happy Birthday!

Video will arrive in 4 weeks ...... grrr

It was nuts! 175+ is what they told me after the run.  The overall speed was not the "shock and awe" factor.  It was the G's in the corners!!  WOW!!

I'll get it posted after it arrives.
