Buck Baker Racing School

Move over Kasey Kahne, Jimmie Johnson and Tony Stewart, NASCAR racing will never be the same as I take to the track on Saturday morning. We brave the winds and rain of Ernesto to travel to Darlington Raceway for a NASCAR ride/drive of a lifetime. My birthday present last fall was the 1/2 day ride and drive experience at the Buck Baker Racing School.

Founded solely by two-time NASCAR Nextel Cup Champion Buck Baker in 1980, we are the oldest and best-known NASCAR-type racing school in America. Our programs are designed to instill the thrill of racing in everyone - from beginners to more advanced racers. We don't use pace cars. We allow passing. And we use racing radios to provide on-track instruction for our advanced students. Plus, we're the first NASCAR-type racing school to use CD-ROM camera/data acquisition technology in every racecar. We operate at the Atlanta Motor Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Darlington Raceway, North Carolina Speedway, and the Lowe's Motor Speedway.

Check back for an update later this weekend! I'm afraid there will be pictures involved.
