Today's Groupon is a race experience at Eagle's Canyon raceway near Decatur.
Here's an opportunity to be more like Larry and drive a Formula Ford!

For that price, you get a 45-minute classroom orientation and 10-minutes of driving.
Wow (yawn).

I am trying to find some places around Dallas where I can drive the Cobra. Anything from a private track (without some huge initiation and monthly fees) to some country road that is not heavily policed.

Any ideas?

Try this place. It's in Caddo Mills.

Yea, I passed after I read further and saw only 10 minutes of driving time.

Miles:

I know a guy that has a Lola Formula Ford that rents it out and if you really want to experience the thrill of passing in the corners, out breaking your competition, driving over 100+ mph wheel to open wheel, in a small cockpit that is well over 100 degrees in temperature, having rocks, bugs and flying debries smack you in the head,,,then I've got a number for you. Give me a call.

With an offer like that, Larry, how can I decline? Sounds great!
I need to get this electrical prob behind me for good and get back on the track. I do miss it so!
