Have you ever dreamed of driving on a professional racetrack? Well, now's your chance. 

Atlanta Motor Speedway is hosting Laps for Charity — an event where you can drive your own car on the same track that you've watched NASCAR legends race on. 

On November 6, you'll have the chance to make 3 laps around the famous 1.54-mile track and challenge the 24-degree banked turns.

Driving on the same steep turns that the greats... have raced on is a one-of-a-kind thrill.

You’ll enter through the main tunnel as if you were a professional about to start a race and then check-in at the Xfinity Series Garage before heading out onto the track. 

Once on the track, you'll be under the lights of the motorway and feeling like a NASCAR driver yourself. 

You can rev your engine at the start/finish line and take off at the flagman's signal to follow the tire tracks of racing greats around the high banks. 

Admission is $40 per vehicle and the proceeds will go to Speedway Children’s Charities Atlanta, a non-profit that provides funding for organizations that meet the direct needs of children.

A limited number of people can upgrade to a private experience for $125 and drive 5 laps solo behind the Atlanta Motor Speedway pace car.
