Michigan International Speedway

Best. Experience. Ever.  Experience the thrill of driving a real NASCAR race car on the Michigan International Speedway, a 2-mile, D shaped race track with 18-degrees of banking and 73 foot wide sweeping turns.  After a drivers meeting with training and instruction, you’ll set off for timed racing sessions, solo in the car. No lead car, no instructor by your side—just you, the track, and one-on-one guidance from a spotter over in-car radio.  Or experience a NASCAR Ride Along — sit back, hold on, and feel the thrill as a professional driver takes you around the track at top speed. 

Ride Alongs start at $157.99 and Driving Experiences start at $299.99.
