NASCAR Driving School
Thursday, December 22nd, 2005For U.S. Micro Corp’s 10th Anniversary Christmas Party, they took us all down to the Atlanta Motor Speedway for Buck Baker’s NASCAR Driving School.
After a quick course and some instructions, we suited up, and hopped into the passenger seat of a real NASCAR. Unbelievable. The professional drivers must have been going close to 180+ mph. The G-force effect was amazing.
So after some laps, we switched positions, and did a few laps with the professional driver in the passenger seat. And after a few laps, he hops out, leaving us behind the wheel of a 500 horsepower speed machine.
I’ve done some crazy wild things in my life, but this tops the chart. Going 140+ mph around the Atlanta Motor Speedway, putting the pedal to the medal — just incredible!
I’ve got lots more photos in the NASCAR gallery. Unbelievable!
