Here’s something you don’t see everyday. A Mark VIII at speed at Talladega Superspeedway!
Talladega had a “fan appreciation day” over the weekend that allowed you to drive your own car around the track for 2 laps.
Heading into the tunnel taken by my buddy that wanted to ride.
Had to wait over 4 hours for my turn since they weren’t really expecting over 12,000 people to show up. Despite the wait, it was totally worth it.
In line with all the other "normal" cars.
They let about 8 cars out at a time following a pace truck (no passing allowed). I was the next to last car in line, so I let the group get pretty far ahead for this run. On pit row at about 20 mph heading toward turn 1, flat out to middle of the back stretch hitting over 115 mph, before having to let up since we were catching the pack FAST!

It was a major rush, highly recommend it if you get the chance!
