SGT/SC#0471 Posted September 5, 2009 Report Share Posted September 5, 2009 Ok for just one day and one of the cars had a 351 Ford Racing engines.... Unbelievable FUN!!!!! I got about 55 laps in at Yakima Speedway. have muscles I did not know existed hurting today... Never lost the car and had a great Driver coaching me on the radio, I have to admit the car was intimidating the first session and took some getting used to. Then it was game on! The extra car of the team that I was driving broke down, so while parts were coming I got to drive the team owners personal car...about 600 hp and bad to the bone with a killer set up, a top notch late model stock car. I want one real bad now...stoopid fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
