Yeah, Canada actually progressed into the modern age a while back

thats freakin sweet, there was this old man that use to brag about going to skip barber racing school when i was like 10, i think he was lieing tho, make sure u bring ur camera and take some pics while ur there...if thats allowed

[Tim.]

They provide photos I think - I don't think I'll have much of a chance to snap pics 

[heffay]

i raced nascar style cars last summer at the disney world speedway.  it was too much fun... i know you'll have a great time in those open cockpit cars and all the twisties!

how much is the bill for that one?

[Tim.]

In and around $800 for 1/2 day if you can imagine.  Prices are posted on their website.  No damage liability however 

[heffay]

yes... ours was 900 for 8 laps and some tech tips prior to the track... about a half day as well. 

seriously pricey!  but, worth it at least once.

[scunny]

That would be cool. not available here tho. Our closest would be a flight in a spitfire..$1500 NZ but I'm very tempted

I once flew in a hot air balloon. 150 bucks for about an hour, but well worth once in a lifetime...

I took 3 laps at the Lowes Motor Speedway in Ashville NC as a ride-along Nascar thing.  It was... impressive...  We topped out at 178mph.

I think it cost like $150.  Most expensive minute and a half I've ever enjoyed.
