Ride & Drive Experiences

For the ultimate white-knuckle experience, get behind the wheel of the same powerful cars driven by your favorite pros.

How much horsepower can you handle? Fasten your seatbelts and find out on racetracks throughout Cabarrus County! Dive into corners, sling through turns and hit the throttle into the straightaway — just like the pros!

Racing experiences here give thrill seekers of every level the sights and the sounds of racing firsthand. Hit the track solo or ride with a professional driver to reach maximum velocity. The NASCAR Racing Experience and other racing schools at Charlotte Motor Speedway let you circle the speedway behind the wheel of real NASCAR race cars. If you prefer your speed in a straight line, the Pure Speed Drag Racing Experience at zMAX Dragway is the ticket. Or hone your skills at one of the kart courses located in the region. K1 Speed is an indoor, all-electric karting facility where you can get on track in any weather and kids will love an outdoor day of fun at The Speedpark at Concord Mills.
