Very cool. I'd like to do one of those. I went to the F1 Grand Prix the first year they had it at COTA. When I went, I had the opportunity to either drive super cars or get a ride along. I did the ride along. It wasn't at COTA (because all of the various race cars were practicing, qualifying, etc...). It was a smaller nearby track. Still, the ride was amazing. My driver was Didier Theys, but they had a couple of other drivers. He was the one that I recognized. They said that we definitely hit 150, and maybe approached 160. It was crazy, that the helmet started to lift and was pulling up on the chinstrap from the lift at speed.

This is not my run, but the same car/track/week. I'm really glad that I did it. Now I need to setup one of the super car drives!
