Item Description

If you like to go fast, listen up. Here's a way to do it without having that gut-turning feeling you get when you see the flashing red lights in your rear view mirror.

This is a half-day experience at Whiskey Hill Raceway in Palmer, Massachusetts. After checking in for a morning classroom session, you'll be strapped into a track-ready race car with an instructor for a 30-minute session.  Participants can receive up to three on-track sessions. That's a lot of zoom zoom.

Palmer Motorsports Park is the first private road course in Massachusetts. It was built for training and testing as well as corporate and competitive sporting events. It's a place where people with a need for speed like to be.

Whiskey Hill Raceway is 2.3 miles long and 40 feet wide. It's paved with possibilities for going faster than you ever have before. The race-ready Mazda Miata has track safety equipment and racing performance suspension. It knows what to do when you shift into high gear.

Got a passion for speed? Nurture it with this terrific opportunity to enjoy life in the fast lane.  

"With 14 turns and phenomenal elevation changes, Palmer stands out as one of the more dynamic, challenging, and rewarding tracks to drive, and a difficult one to master.   For anyone looking to see if racing a car might be for you, or even if you just enjoy spirited driving,  there is no better or more economical way to do it than in someone else's car.  You can take your street vehicle, but after replacing tires, brakes, and various other wear items, it is much cheaper to rent someone else's!  In addition, in a race-prepared Miata, there are a roll cage and 5 point safety harnesses to protect you.  Additionally, there isn't a better, more benign car to learn on while staying safe!"  - Music Hall Member, Zach Slater
 

Requirements

The Arrive-N-Drive experience is offered to anyone with a valid drivers license. The ability to use a manual-shifted transmission is helpful but a paddle-shifter upgrade or automatic transmission is available.
