"Riding Shotgun With The Pros"

Saturday afternoon, we were invited out at PIR for a program called "Hot Laps" and had an absolute blast. Besides riding shotgun with the best Pro drivers in the IROC cars at speeds around 140 mph around the track (we were fully suited up as well....yikes, hot!), we also rode in the Mustang drifting cars...Achieving some crazy sideways and every which way positions around a very tough course. We had a great time and we both agreed that going 140 around the track was great fun, however getting sideways and crazy in the Mustangs was much more exciting!!!!

Our fav, the Mustang drifting cars. All we could smell out here was burning rubber!

Us in our racing gear, in front of one of the cars we rode in around the track. We would both do it again in a heartbeat...and I have a new appreciation of the drivers, they really work hard in those cars.
