If you've ever wondered what driving in a race car is like, the Richard Petty Driving Experience is your ticket to adrenaline-pumping action. Sit in the driver's seat or take the wheel yourself. The company has a menu of options to quench your thirst for speed. At Texas Motor Speedway, you can experience the excitement of NASCAR racing with the NASCAR Racing Experience. Drive a NASCAR race car around the 1.50-mile oval track with 24-degree banks in the turns. With one-on-one instruction from a spotter over in-car radio, you can work on driving faster and even pass slower cars as you catch them. And if you'd rather ride as a passenger, take a NASCAR ride along for an action-packed adventure. NASCAR driving experiences are offered year-round, so make your dream of driving a race car a reality.
