That was cool of them... I did this 8 or so years ago in Florida with Petty... At the time, it was pretty cool. I wish my folks had done that.

That said, I need to add a disclaimer...

It will probably be very cool for your father and sister if they have never done any sort of driving at speed while turning.

I think you will enjoy it as well, but it may not be as exciting considering the driving you have been doing for the past couple years.

At my first track event in my own car a couple years later, the rush of driving my own car around Thunderhill at maybe 50% of what it was capable of was 1000 times the Petty experience...

I wish I had spent the money on Bob Bondurant, Skip Barber, or Audi events those years earlier... I don't mean to rain on your parade, but if your family is one of those that understands exchanging gifts, you might want to propose a change.

Again, not trying to bum you out, or anything, just making an observation/ suggestion.
