Rusty Wallace Racing Experience- Milwaukee Mile

Basically had a good time with few issues.
Was told that a 3 lap ride along was a good idea prior to my 12 lap drive. I found this not to be the case, the driver did not explain any tips or ideas to make my experience better. The charge of $ 81.00 with tax was mostly a waste.
My experience was good not great as my car was detuned and not very responsive compared to the cars used by the pros for the ride along sessions.
My spotter made me drive a line on the track that was appropriate for non experienced drivers. No power was allowed to be used on the turns and the lap times and experience suffered.
I was on the track with beginners who were afraid to drive the car at all fast but some times I had to follow the slower drivers for several laps as passing is closely managed by the spotters. The activity was expensive and I would choose not to do it again under the conditions listed above.

I got this experience for my husband for his 60^th birthday. It was a racing experienc that he gets to drive himself. We made plans to do this in the Spring and something came up and the staff was wonderful to change it out. They were very friendly and very nice. That is where it ended. When we arrived at the track we were not told that there was a fee for parking. For $ 150+ I would think that would have been covered. Then the lines my God the lines and there is nobody to direct or tell you where to go. They did not have enough people checking in and it seemed one lady was more worried about counting the money than checkign people in. We were told by some people, to get a better feel for the car add a ride along to your package (extra charge). Then I told my husband I wanted the on board camera footage (extra charge) pictures (extra charge), Insurance (extra charge) and you better get the insurance with pros out there the chances or them hitting YOU are great (and you are responsible for the accident). I think the day we went there were 5 accidents. You can see the extra charges add up and I spent an additional $ 200+. Well they don’t tell you that the onboard footage may not work. Ours did at the track we had them test it before we left. I even saw it. But the second I got home I tried to watch the video and it does not work. I tried 3 different machines. Nothing! I am NOT happy basically threw $ 60 into the wind and watched it float away. They were overwhelmed there were too many people and I came to find out that that reason was on the Friday of that weekend they had to cancel all races due to being locked out from the venue. So all those people filtered over to other race days. We were there for 7 hours. If I knew that we would be there that long I would have packed a lunch as there is NO food for sale there. The only reason I gave it 3 stars is my husband had a great time driving the car… In the end that is all that matters. But be warned I spent in the high $ 300’s and I do not recommend getting the onboard video because it does not seem to work.

nice track good racing fun
