NASCAR Driving School
For 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!

The fact that Jodi got to drive in Junior’s #8 before I have is not making me very happy.
Look out Danica Patrick!
