140+ Mph!!!!!

Just came back from Nashville Speedway, Jeff Gordon's' school. What a trip!!!

Not a fan in any way of NASCAR. Just a fan of driving fast.

I had a blast!!!! 18 laps around Nashville Speedway. Top speed 140 mph!! Yahhooo, gittter done. AMAZING!!!!!!!! Only limited by the traffic on the track (sorry to say).



Wanted to share this one .

Was it your car or detuned bush series cars? I was able to track one of those. 140 is nothing. try 180+ around the bank.... OMG!!!!!

Was a Busch car. I could only go as fast as safety would allow with other cars on the track etc.

I'm happy with that, trust me.

I bet 140 on a track in car like that feels like 65 on the highway.

I was psyched. The instructors told me the faster you go the better they handle and they didn't lie.

The experience was phenomenal!
