Half off Richard Petty Driving Experience at WDW

[4orm]

I also posted this on the theme park board but I thought it fit well here too since it's a nice deal.

Though some of you might be interested in this - today only a deal site is offering $58 ($116.50 Value) for a Three-Lap Ride-Along and Photo from Richard Petty Driving Experience at WDW's Richard Petty driving experience.

The gift certificate you buy or whatever it is is good till Feb 2011.


I'm not sure if this type of thing is allowed and if it's not please remove by all means mods!

Thank you!!! We are going in January and will be there for my husbands birthday. This would be a great present for him! Like going to Disney for a week isn't enough! I guess he's worth it.

Adding: I referred someone to groupon previously, so I have a $10 credit also, which makes this an even better deal!

 

[4orm]

People should start a groupon train for those that haven't yet signed up so everyone would get a credit!

How does this work, do you print out something you take to the track then? We are going in 2 and a half weeks, and my husband is driving, but I thought my son might like a ride-along.

I was just going to post this info but I checked first just to make sure no one else had.

The way it works, I believe, is you buy it now for $58, then you'll get to print out the coupon or use an ipod to download the coupon then when you go, give them the coupon, pay the tax and wait for your turn

That is such a great idea for them to offer this.
I bought an 8 lap experience for my husband a few years ago and he loved it.
But it sure was a budget buster for the rest of the trip.
Even just 3 laps is enough to go top speed and have a great experience with it all!!

THANK YOU...THANK YOU..THANK YOU....

I was just looking at this yesterday. We are going in December and I was thinking about getting this as a Christmas gift for my DH. We are using our trip as the gift this year so are doing very little presents. Plus...we have so much "stuff" in the house it's crazy. This is perfect.

Thanks again!

I'm done bday shopping for DH!! Thanks!!

I purchased a coupon. Thanks for the heads-up!

 

[4orm]

Whoa! Over 300 bought so far. There's going to be a lot of speeders at Disney soon

Bumping for anyone that might have missed it

Thank you so much! I just sent the link to my parents - they are going to WDW for their 40th anniversary next month. They are big Nascar fans and are excited to do this!

I purchased this for my DH...we leave Sat. Will report how great it is when we return. Thanks OP.

Awesome! Please do report in when you get back. We are going in December so I'm anxious to hear how it was. Also, if you can scope out what myself and my children can do while DH is riding that would be much appreciated.

Thanks!

DH bought the Driving experience for me 3 years ago. The good price is for a ride along. When our class started, they suggested if you had never done a ride along, you should do one before you drove to get accustomed to the speed. They let us do a ride along for half price. They have bleachers that are under a canopy for families to watch. If you do the driving experience, it takes a lot longer. You have a safety class, ride in a van around the track first in a group, do your ride along if you want , then you get to drive. I got there at 7:30am & was finished around 12:30. It was amazing & so exciting!!

We're back! We got to the Richard Petty Ride Along by their van that we caught in front of the kennel. (TTC) I paid $3.22 tax. DH really enjoyed it!!! 145MPH Thanks to the OP who posted the groupon! It didn't take very long and my 2 DD (10 and 14) really liked watching. Enjoy!

I'm glad to hear your DH had a great time.DH wants to do this in a couple of weeks. Once again, thanks to the OP for posting such a great deal. Did you call to reserve a specific time? Did they offer you an upgrade to do other experiences?

 

[PrincessParty]

No we didn't reserve the time. Just went to the kennel club pick up spot and waited. No, they didn't offer us an upgrade. It was an amazing time.
