My IndyCar Debut

[DanicaFan]

Well today, I was down at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway doing my IndyCar drive.
Wow! It was amazing. I was in awe the whole time driving around Indy.

It was only 3 laps, I was just getting warmed up. I wanted to do a lot more. The speed was about 110mph. Thats as fast as it would go but it was still incredible. I was exiting the pit area, not even on the track yet and I was like this is awesome. Those cars really grip the track. I cant believe how low you really sit. Incredible. I wish I would of done this years ago, I may have been an IRL driver.

With the motorcycle engines instead of racing engines and the downforce cranked all the way up it's just an over-sized gocart that won't spin.

Your average speed was more like 60 - 70 mph. It seems faster with your ass just inches off the track though.
