Richard Petty Driving Experience

1. 170 miles per hour is FREAKING AWESOME. I highly recommend it. (On a race track with someone else driving, not in illegal street racing, mkay?)

2. I want a stock car. For some reason people keep telling me that's not going to happen.

3. I also asked my driver to go really really fast and pass everybody. Sadly, he wouldn't do so. (At least we got to blow past the really pokey person in the 25 car.)

4. I don't know how many people know this, but RPDE cars are retired stock cars for the most part. Either Cup, Nationwide or ARCA. So that meant that we were in people's cars. [livejournal.com profile] eliz actually did the thing purely (at first) to get into Mikey's car.

5. [livejournal.com profile] tourofduty is going to be soooooo jealous cause...I was in Tony's car! (And everyone else will be jealous because it was the #33 Old Spice car from Kevin Harvick Inc.)

6. [livejournal.com profile] eliz's pictures are right here. Please ignore the craziness of my hair, as I knew I was putting a helmet on, so I didn't bother. (Actually, I bothered with a headband. Hence the wackiness of my hair without headband.) Also, ignore my pastiness. I was wearing makeup, really.

7. Can I reiterate that I want one?

8. [livejournal.com profile] pmgoose and [livejournal.com profile] bubblesbrnaid got burned, bless their hearts. (And I say that in the GOOD southern way. *g* The "bless their hearts" part.) It was roasting out. Eliz and I were saved by the firesuits, even though they were freaking hot.

9. Had a panic attack (claustrophobia) when they strapped me in with that 5-point restraint and the HANS device. Seriously freaky there. But going fast made up for it.
