My grandfather used to give drivers rides from the airport to the track in Talladega. One day he picked up Bobby Allison. Bobby said "sir, if you don't mind, can we turn the air conditioning off? I don't want to get too comfortable before I have to get in that race car".
Yes they have a Nascar experience day but you have to pay for it
Yup, my old man got to experience it at Fontana
@@WahooSerious Did he enjoy it
Look for YT vids on it. It used to be called "Richard Petty Experience".
Did it in New Hampshire great time
I did New Hampshire was amazing thought I did good until the next week when the qualified almost 15 mph faster than my best lap 😂😂
I live in the heart of NASCAR, around Mooresville and Concord North Carolina. We have the Richard Petty driving experience and I think there are some other ones.
DENVER, NC -Lake Norman here!
Daytona too, I think
Hickory here!
Kannapolis here. :)
Fontana Speedway California
NASCAR does have the “NASCAR Driving Experience” where you can ride or driver older/ previous stock cars at many different NASCAR tracks around the country.
There are several tracks where you can do a ride-along or drive the car yourself. I did a ride-along at Daytona back in 2004/5, it was awesome! The cars don't go quite as fast as the real thing, but still faster than I'll ever go myself!
You haven't made it as a crew chief until NASCAR names a rule after you.
If you go to any event, it’s gotta be the Daytona 500. It’s the first race of the year and is the most prestigious event to win. Daytona is where it all started, racing along the white hard sand beach for half the track and the other half going down the road. At Daytona, you can have a tour where they’ll even take you on the track and let you “try” to walk up the banked turn. I’ll tell you right now, you’ll be blown away at how much those turns are banked. You can’t even walk up them they are so steep. Something like 2 or 3 stories straight up from base of track to the wall. Daytona is also one of the few beaches in the country you are actually allowed to still drive in which is awesome. Bring a surf board and try your hand at surfing while you’re there, or better yet make a short drive to cocoa beach (keep in mind while it is sunny and hot Florida, east coast Florida water is cold!). Add a trip to the west coast of Florida and visit the gulf beaches, literally some of the best beaches in the world. I’m down in St Pete and we’ve got a few of the best beaches in the country( st Pete beach, Clearwater beach, siesta key, Anna Marie island). Destin beach is north Florida, probably the closest good gulf beach near Daytona with an awesome town. Shoot you can even go to St Augustine too which is the oldest city in America. Florida really is a one stop shop for an American experience!
Would love to see the 500 , but those tickets prices for that one race is fucking insane ,, Talladega is hard to beat if ur in the infield!! Hell the Coke 600 has good prices
Fun fact, early bootleggers learned that all the cops had to do was shoot the radiator to disable the car. So, they started putting the radiator in the trunk, running the hoses longer, so they could keep going!
Fun Fact...Early bootleggers were soon apprehended, regardless, because placing the radiator in the trunk, rapidly overheated the engine...
@@codymoe4986wrong.
In North Carolina they have the Richard petty driving school and yes you do actually drive race cars
If you two go to any races, drag races, Nascar, etc don't forget the ear plugs 😮
The engine roar is 90% of the fun......although i do imagine that the modern day top fueller drag cars can probably cave a mans head in.
The 2,000 hp rails and funny cars back in 1970 were louder than a jumbo jet, and felt like an earth quake even 100 yards from the track.
The 6,000 + hp cars of today could be the equivalent to standing behind a jet fighter at tack off. lol
@@Rasssklewearing ear protection makes the engine roar enjoyable. Hearing loss is not fun
Good to see more people getting into NASCAR stuff. I'd suggest checking out videos on some of the best drivers. Lots of history there, that will shed more light on the sport, and give you some familiarity with names that will keep being mentioned in NASCAR videos and by NASCAR fans.
Works both ways. Lots of drivers did F1 & IndyCar as well as Cup. Big fan of Big 3. 😀
If you go see a race go to a short track like Bristol is amazing and the banking is unreal at super speedways you can’t really see much, just hear the roar then a bunch of colorful blurs blast by!
Yes, I did the “Richard Petty Driving Experience” at Texas Motor Speedway. Morning training session, then afternoon driving 7 hot laps around the track, driving a real NASCAR. Very exhilarating! They made a video for me to remember it by. In-car cam & POV cam.
Yes there is experience you have to pay for it it's Richard Petty's driving School experience in Charlotte North Carolina
I just found d you guys and I love this channel. No long, stupid into. Just straight to it! ❤from the USA🇺🇸
Yes at Las Vegas and Florida Daytona. If you want to see a race you have to see when season open at Florida daytona. It's like super ball .It's the biggest race of the year
11:26 yes they do have a nascar experience day, a very common thing that i see with nascar is ride-alongs, where real nascar drivers take fans, celebrities, other drivers on a ride around a certain track for a few laps, they’ll have a special 2 seat nascar stock car to do it, since regulation cars only have one seat
Daytona Speedway In Daytona Beach Florida Has a driving experience
in daytona there used to be a thing called the richard petty driving experience where you could get in the passenger seat and go around the track not sure if thats still around or not
My grandfather was one of those that ran shine and was among the first Nascar guys. My great grandfather cooked, and my granddad and his brothers ran it. They never got caught either. I ran across one of those old bottles once. Very good stuff. When I was racing, I was a dirt track guy. Very fun stuff.
it gets up to 140 degrees which is 60 Celsius. The reason that they get so hot in the car now, is that they are so sealed up for aerodynamics and safety. Not letting air go through the car when it gets sidesways helps keep it from flipping.
When you burn your tires off too early it's the worst feeling ever!.. upside down on the wheel
and no bite anywhere!
The scanners are the only way I watch NASCAR. It is so much fun to listen to the drovers speak with the crew chiefs. You can hear stratevy and everyting. I will never forget one of the first times using the scanner was it Daytona and I was listening to four different cars that were in a row and listening to their crew chiefs talk to the drivers and all four of them had agreed to drop down as a group to pass the lead. And they were going to do it on the count of three and then on the count of two three of them dropped down and went ahead and left somebody hanging. Come to find out there was a back-end deal made that they would leave that one guy in the dust but you didn't hear that on the radio until after the case it was pretty hilarious but really a cool thing to listen to.
11:00 Yes, many tracks have "driving experiences" where you can go out with an instructor and run some laps at a certain speed. They're usually sponsored by an old driver like Richard Petty or Rusty Wallace.
Las Vegas Speedway hosts NASCAR, NHRA and other types of racing on four different tracks. They also have a couple of driver experience opportunities.
There are professional driver schools that amateurs can take classes.
I'm from Nazareth, Pa. We used to have a race track and are home of the Andretti racing family. Before the track closed they used to do indy car racing and stockcar experiences around the track on your own. The other raceway Pocono used to have a race experience and allow you to drive and ride around.
To add my family owns a store and we would do catering for the race track and I got to meet some of the greats from Petty to Andretti. It was awesome as a little kid meeting these guys
Check out NHRA fastest accelerating vehicles on land and fire breathing monsters
What about Indycar
Added to the list 👍🏻
@@jordankirby3075 If you are referring to their acceleration, they are no where near Top Fuel and Funny Car acceleration. If you are just saying they should check Indycar out also then yeah they should, specially given the comparison to F1 everybody likes to make, even though the cars are largely different.
Junior Johnson contributed one of his working stills (homemade grain alcohol distillers) to the NASCAR Hall of Fame museum. He's also the one that got Winston cigarettes, NASCAR's longest title sponsor, into the sport.
At 1:09, there's a NASCAR-themed restaurant at what was the north end of the track, half on the beach, half on the pavement. It's called Racing's North Turn. I try to go there every time I visit the area. Like I've said on another video, if you can put together a two or three week trip to the USA, head for the San Francisco Bay Area. You can take in San Francisco, Yosemite National Park, Monterey Bay and Big Sur, and take in a NASCAR race in Sonoma. That would be an amazing trip that wouldn't have you flying all over different parts of the country.
There are at least 4 outfits that I know of doing NASCAR experience, and they’ll do it at 6 or 7 tracks around the country. I’ve driven at Charlotte and Richmond. The chassis will be NASCAR spec, but may be 3 or 4 year old spare cars. The engines are detuned some, but still up around 450-500 hp. However, when on the track, the spotter assigned to you will be on radio with you and can remotely control your RPM limits lap by lap via radio controls on your rev limiter. Bust out on what he tells you to stay under, and you’ll have to back off 500-1000 revs to reset it (lost lap time). As you pay attention to him, follow the line he directs, and he sees you can handle the ride, he’ll give you more revs. Did 155mph lap avg at Charlotte, so I guess I listened ok. 😅
There are absolutely tracks with NASCAR experiences. There used to be one at Walt Disney World, but that track was demolished for additional parking for the theme parks. There is one at Las Vegas, I think, but I'd have to double check.
A lot of pit crew members are former college sports team (football and lacrosse mostly, but a sprinkling of others) members. They might have not been good enough to make it in the pros, but they are slinging around 70 pound tires, fuel cans, and jacks, and need the agility and quickness they had to use on the field.
The Richard Petty Driving Experience and Rusty Wallace Driving Experience. They do both at a lot of different tracks but I would recommend Charlotte Motor Speedway in Concord, NC.
A few things. This video came out in 2020. In just that short time. The cars are completely different in every way. And teams can't actually do much to them. NASCAR is very popular because most of the tracks they go to,you can pretty much see the whole track from your seat. Road course racing,like F1 ect. Once they go by,wait another minute or so before you see them again. Personally my favorite motorsport is NHRA drag racing. While your street car might have 400 HP. These NASCAR cars might have 700+- HP. The nitro cars in the NHRA have 12,000+ HP. Top speeds are approaching 340 mph.
NASCAR hasn’t had 700plus hp in a damn min… they have 510 at Daytona and Talladega, the rest are 670 … but they need to bump it up on short tracks
@@AmpUpDaleJr88since 2015 to be clear.
A few races to watch the replays of is the '98 daytona 500, '01 Pepsi 400, and '03 spring race at talladega
Yes, at the Texas Motor Speedway they do it. As the late great Dale Earnhardt once said, if you're not rubbing, you ain't racing.
Yes, there are several Nascar experiences arounf the country and not just on race days. I suggest the one at the LAS VEGAS motor speedway.
There are videos about it on you tube.
My owner of my company has a NASCAR team based in NC, i think one of the most clever position change was riding the outside wall and went around many people , they outlawed it after he did it
Did you get to meet Ross Chastain?
Yes, there is the NASCAR Hall of Fame, in Charlotte NC, but you do have to buy tickets to go there and the driving is virtual
There are a few NASCAR driving experiences, most famously the Richard Petty Driving Experience. (Richard Petty is NASCAR's GOAT.) There used to be one at Walt Disney World until they dismantled the track.
In 2022, NASCAR switched to a single lug nut 18-inch BBS wheel, similar in design to wheels in WEC and F1. After this change, the fastest 4-tire pit stops are all under 9 seconds.
It also physically demanding because there is no power steering or power breaks. And you HAVE to check out Ross Chastains wall ride!
there is power steering on these new cars at least
There are some tracks that have NASCAR experience setups. Some only allow you to ride along in a specially built car that has 2 seats, but others will train you on how to drive and then allow you to drive a few laps solo. However, those cars are not as powerful as the race level cars.
And NASCAR actually requires that any driver must have a special racing license that they earn by driving in lower tier leagues as well as undergoing training and demonstrating their ability to drive at race speed.
Yes, here in Florida. In Daytona you can drive a nascar stock car. (from $300 to $5k depending on what you want do)
Most of the NASCAR teams will allow tours of their facilities which are huge with dozens of cars, professional engineers and more worth hundreds of millions.
At NASCAR races fans can buy a “Pit” pass for behind the screen’s experience and even catered events with drivers attending.
They just found the hidden alcohol still at North Wilkesboro track this year. It was hidden under concrete seating.
It's actually individual counties that were either dry(no alcohol) or wet(alcohol permitted).
When they weren't hauling monsgine they atarted racingbeach other. Running shine was not a daily job.
like Honda86tb said, a lot of tracks offer the 'NASCAR experience. You can go as driver, or passenger.
Oh yes, there are lots of different NASCAR experience. Not sure which ones are still around, but Richard Petty, Rusty Wallace, and Ron Bouchard all had experiences. I did the Ron Bouchard one many years ago at Thompson (CT) Speedway.
I live little over an hour from one of the biggest NASCAR events, Daytona, Daytona Beach, Florida. And they do have that I have heard.
*Roy Jones Jr Reaction would be dope af.*
.@yass&Fats when you questioned how it takes a lot of physical strength to race.... the best way I always explain it is this. Try taking a 180 degree highway ramp at like 40mph. Your body will experience forces against it and you'll be pressed into your seat and pushed to the side. Now imagine doing that at 150-180mph. AND doing it every 10 seconds for 3 hours straight. AND doing it in 130 deg F heat.
Come to Charlotte North Carolina.. You can watch a NASCAR race, Carolina Panthers NFL game, Charlotte Hornets NBA game & a Charlotte FC MLS game all in the same trip.
I’ve done the NASCAR experience at PIR. It was a blast but if you’re claustrophobic you won’t enjoy it. They strap you in so tight you can barely move.
If you are really serious about coming to a NASCAR race, the most intense, edge of the seat experience will be Atlanta, Daytona, or Talladega. (Alphabetical order, because they are ALL great weekends.) And yes, make sure you come for the whole weekend! There will usually be at least two different classes racing. Usually, on the Daytona 500 weekend, there will be four classes, over five days, which will leave you drained by the time you get back to your hotel on Sunday night.
Check upcoming event schedules for more detailed information.
If you guys think NASCAR is exciting you have to check out winged and non winged sprint car racing. World of Outlaws and High Limit are winged series and USAC for non winged series. You will love them!
Well worth the $ warning you’ll be hooked for life once you do the NASCAR Experience.
Yes there is the nascar experience at some tracks the most famous one available is the Richard Petty driving experience.
Yes they do have Nascar experience and you get to drive it's on my bucket list
Fabrats youtube channel took their family to N Carolina where they have a program for the public to experience being coached and drive a racecar.
Richard Petty Racing Experience in Charlotte NC you can race, it is fairly expensive but for the Experience and thrill it may be worth it to certain people
We have a driver at my local short track who's still driving at almost 80 years old
You need to watch the NASCAR at LeMans just for the sound... and how cool the car was after they modified it for LeMans. Also, their NASCAR pit crew beat out all other pit crews at their pit crew competition using the standard manual floor jack to change tires!
My neighbour/family friend was the first non American to win a nascar race in 1974 driving for Junior Johnson
I think you would really enjoy experiencing a race in person but be warned that it will be very loud and sometimes quite hot and that they can go on for several hours. It's an endurance sport for the drivers, the crews and the spectators.
You have to a NASCAR race in your life, it’s addicting even a dirt track is so much fun.
LOL Awesome ! I grew up at a track. Enjoy the reactions.
We would love to have you as new fans!!! It's such an amazing sport! Best motorsport in the world in my opinion!!
Nacar Museum in Charlotte, NC ...not sure about driving a car being part of the museam experience...but lots of information to read about and see.
There is a place south of New Orleans called NOLA Motorsports. There you can pay to drive exotic cars such as Lambos
There are a few driving experience tracks where you can pay to ride with a driver or pay to drive yourself.
Yes there is a nascar experience. I road in a Busch series car at Kentucky Motor Speedway. It’s a lot more $$ to drive it. It’s pretty wild coming out of pit row and thinking there is no way we can make this turn. My driver was female. Pretty cool.
hopefully yall get to see a nascar race in person. the sound and feel is insane. it goes through youre whole body. the in person experience is wild.
This is an old video.
Kevin Harvick is retired now.
The wheels on the current car only have one large center nut, not the 5 pictured here.
The Cup Series now has run on dirt, I don’t know if they will continue that race.
The Cup Series now has a bona fide ‘road course’ in Grant Park, Chicago.
Things to keep in mind if you watch a current race. Things may have changed a little since that video was released.
Come to Charlotte, NC, visit the NASCAR Hall of fame, watch the Coke 600 and go for a drive your self, then come hang out with my brother and I while we race at a short track nearby like Hickory or Tri-County.
Y'all should go to the Goodwood Festival of Speed in England. The often feature Nascar race cars.
Most tracks have a nascar experience to be able to get behind the wheel at the track you go to
I’ve done the experience thing in Las Vegas and it was NUTS. Was something like $3k and I’d pay for it again, even more for the longer time in the car turning laps.
check out bristol raceway , fastest half mile track, cars are always on top of each other hard to drift on that type of track, they just jockey and fighting for position on the track
Austin Dillion's Coke Zero 400 crash at Daytona is a much watch. After you watch it, type in the same words but add front row view. Someone in the stands filmed the car crashing through the catch fence right in front of themselves.
Please react to highlights of races. The extended highlights would the best. NASCAR even has full race replays on their RUclips channel!
Even at big tracks like Daytona and talladega, from the Drivers seat you cannot see a car sitting in the track as you drive out of a corner.
Remember they are wearing a Nomex fire suit under their uniform as well.
Y’all should watch Cars
I am a nascar home track driver. Not all Nascar are these big tracks and drivers. I would like to see you react to ELKO's speed way powerstock races where cars are still fast but on a way smaller track!
I'd heartily recommend a few of S1ap's other videos on NASCAR for reacting some time, particularly his Alignment Chart video, if you want to know more about some of the names you should know on the sport.
People often called Mark Martan a 3/4 size version of Arnold S.
Yes there is an experience. It's literally called NASCAR Experience. You do get to drive a NASCAR vehicle, however instead of the 650hp the series actually races with the engines are more like 400hp. But you get a feel for the way the cars handle and if you can carry speed through the corners of whatever track you choose, you can still attain a very high speed.
Yes, here in Charlotte & in Daytona, I think, you can drive a NASCAR car.
Smokey Yunick said he never broke a rule, but he did make them write new rules.
they do have nascar experience, you don't get to drive but you can ride. It's the #43 Nascar Racing experience Ford Fusion Gen 6 retired cup car. it runs within 10 seconds of a full fledged Gen 6 cup car but I have no clue how close to the Next gen car it runs.
The driving experience is rad!!! So is the ride along version if you're skittish about driving. They have them at most tracks. Just beware...once you go to a race you will be hooked for life. *Try to hit up the Daytona 500!* It's absolutely insane.
You should check out Nascar Radioactive. Its like in this video when he was talking about the radio chatter. Well nascar posts after every race the radio chatter chopped up between different drivers to tell the story of a the race.
Love these nascar videos
Bristol Night race or Atlanta motor speedway. Also NASCAR most popular race the Daytona 500 would be my recommendations for races to attend.
just went to the chicago street race this weekend, amazing experience
How much you pay for your ticket? Saw some insane prices for shitty seats ..
@@AmpUpDaleJr88 my friends parents have an apartment on michigan avenue so they invited me, but tickets were absolutely ridiculous
A good movie for you guys to watch is Days Of Thunder to get an idea about nascar racing.
You can fly to Las Vegas and they have Stock Car racing experience. Really cool
Cheating has always been a part of racing. Back in the 50s & 60s in the Northeast where my dad ran they required stock gas tanks. SO, what they did was put in a splash of gas, shake it up and pour out the liquid leaving only fumes. Then throw a firecracker in the tank and it magically became bigger. Not exactly legal, but common.
Yes the off season at Daytona international has a great school that has single day passes
