What happens on the day
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to drive a real Sprint Cup NASCAR Stock Car? Experience the adrenaline rush firsthand as you race around the legendary Talladega Superspeedway!
After a short classroom session covering racing fundamentals and safety, you’ll head straight to the track where a 500-horsepower stock car is waiting. A crew member will buckle you in, check your radio, and give the go-ahead. With the V8 engine roaring beneath you, you’ll roll onto the track and prepare for the green flag drop.
You'll feel like a real racing pro with every turn and straightaway. Of course, your instructor will guide you in real time via radio, helping you get the most out of your time on the track. And the best part? With this incredible racing package, you'll have access to a variety of time slots, including sessions during peak hours (pending availability).
Add a Ride Along
During a 3-lap ride along, you’ll sit in the passenger's seat as a professional driver pushes the stock car to its limits and shows you what these vehicles can really do.
Talladega Superspeedway
This tri-oval, superspeedway is one of the longest track on the NASCAR circuit at 2.66 miles. It is known for its steep banking turns and for breaking record speeds. It's your chance to get as close to the action as possible!
