Hooked on Driving, the outfit that I've fallen in love with by procedure alone....they let me move up in class based on how many times I've run road courses with instructors in the car. Their program is somehow more fun, based on fun. The safety rules are the same, all the same stuff but it's just more fun. They feed you lunch, catered, as part of the entry fee. They have a bottomless cooler of water bottles all during the day. And at the end of the day they break out coolers full of beer for whoever wants it (I haven't partaken, got to drive to somewhere for the night after that).
They are running the Daytona International Speedway relatively soon. The BIG track. The whole NASCAR thing, not the road course inside the track. They'll be there for 3 days. The entry fee is $1200 for three days.
Red's sleeping, waiting for brakes. $1200 is mighty steep, but not really for three days. If that's on anybody's bucket list, drive your own car at Daytona....there's the chance.
I could find out on the first or second lap how fast Red could really go. I used up 4th gear at the Ohio Mile, but there's 5th gear. Surely not much more there. And doing it over and over again for 3 days I might blow Red up. But that's a unique opportunity. I won't do it, but it's sitting there....a bucket list item that won't come around often.
