whats the details (price, time, etc)? do street cars get to run the track, or is it just something that you watch?

We did it both times last year and I have to say that I had more fun in my V-Dub than in the Camaro. I got up to about 115-120 and they (the black trucks) never told me to slow down.

Shoot Eric ran on the track and he wasn't old enough either. I think you have to be 21. They did check my ID when I got in line I guess it just depends on who is doing it

I would like to do this. Do they let cars go at the same time or 1 by 1? (I know this isn't NASCAR.) What charity is it for?? Sounds good, that would be kinda cool. I think I would go slower than you guys cause I used to doing things in a straight line.
