This is your unique opportunity to drive a race primed stock car further than most professional racing drivers do in a real race! Get ready for an amazing day of high speed driving as you tackle Mountain Speedway over 20 hot racing laps.
Pro drivers will give you detailed classroom racing theory – but it'll be totally up to you to put the knowledge into practice once you get track side. Kitted out in authentic race gear, you're suddenly behind the wheel and raring to go! Start your engines for two flat out high speed driving sessions, including pit stops, where you will get to experience all the thrills, spills and, of course sheer speed, real stock car racing has to offer.
You’ll drive NASCAR style Late Models at Mountain Speedway where many of the great stars of NASCAR learned and honed their craft. There’s a reason why the drivers at NASCAR’s highest level look forward to going to NASCAR’s shortest tracks, and many of them sneak away on their off weekends to go back and race a NASCAR style Late Model at a short track. It’s the sensation of speed and the lightning quick reflexes that combine to make short track racing such an exciting racing experience.
Mountain Speedway is a 1/3 mile asphalt oval located in the beautiful mountains of northeast Pennsylvania. The speedway hosts exciting stock car racing every weekend from April to October, making it one of NEPA's premier entertainment attractions.
Drivers must be aged 18 years and over and have a valid driver's licence. All racing suits, helmets and safety equipment are provided.
