Where Can I Find R.petty Experiance Info For Dh??

[daisy58]

hi! Disney only briefly mentions the Richard Petty Driving Experiance, yet gives no info!! DH is more than chomping at the
bit for this...I kinda promised it to him.... How do I arrange this??
My personal spa/shopping time is in jeopardy!!

If you do a google search you'll find the website. I think it's something like bepetty with a 1-800 in front of it.
We gave the driving experience to our DSIL for his birthday in May and he LOVED it!

I did the rookie experience a few years ago.
It ain't cheap, but it's sure a lot of fun.

A little late to the thread, but there is a AAA discount you can get if you are a member. Believe it was 10%. This helped since it is an expensive "experience" but worth it for dh!

We decided to sign my dad up for this... (My parents were to join us, dad huge racing fan, Disney, not so much!! *gasp)

Petty experience tries real hard to keep it a secret, but they needed to clarify a detail... and called to leave a message for my mom - my dad looked at the caller ID and wanted to know why Richard Petty was calling HER!!

So the jig was up!! I printed out the info from allearsnet, including the reports on people who had done it - dad then decided it was a once in a lifetime experience and upgraded to the major KING experience -

If you do book, the tip I took to heart was book for early in your trip, in case you have to postpone due to inclement weather - it rained 3 or 4 days - dad went every day, he loved that he'd get one lap in each time, so by the day he got the full experience - he felt confident!! AND he decided to surprise mom with a ride along experience!!

Wait till you see the disclaimer they make you sign!
To paraphrase;
"Race cars are inherently dangerous. If you do something wrong you could die. In fact, even if you do everything right you could die. If you die it's not our fault. If you wreck our car by accident we'll fix it. If we decide you wrecked it on purpose you are responsible for fixing it. Sign here."
