This sounds like a lot of fun. How would it be for a novice with a stock car? I think the driving instruction part sounds great. Are there entry level easy races? I have drag raced but never road raced.
I also would like to bring my 16 year old son with me.
What are kart rentals? Go-Karts?
Thanks
Gary

Now the Pa drivers are talkin....There is a go cart track at ****** Run. I suggest calling the office to see if they will be renting carts that weekend. Sometimes the track is already taken by the go cart racers. There are no entry level races unless you have the standard safety equipment. ie...rollcage, fire suppression, ect.ect....come out for the drivers school, you will have more fun than you did drag racing....

It would likely be the BEST upgrade to your Viper's parformance you can buy.... and upgradding your 16-yr old's "software" (between his ears) before he learns BAD habits will pay a lifetime of benefits....

JUST DO IT !!!
