Feel The Need For Speed This Weekend At The Milwaukee Mile
Dale Jarrett Racing Adventure Running in Conjunction With 1st Milwaukee Nationals Street Rod Event

Milwaukee, Wis. (July 13, 2005) - This weekend offers up a prime invitation to take laps on the The Milwaukee Mile Speedway with the Dale Jarrett Racing Adventure this Friday, Saturday and Sunday (July 15, 16 and 17), during the 1st National Street Rod Association Milwaukee Nationals!

Over 1500 street rods, custom cars, street machines and muscle cars through 1975 will roar into State Fair Park and the Wisconsin Exposition Center this weekend.  Listen to great entertainment, visit numerous exhibitors, food and beverage vendors and stroll through rows of steel and chrome.

Whether you want to take the wheel or ride along with a driving instructor, this is your chance to climb into a real NEXTEL Cup race car on one of the most storied speedways in America!

Take laps on the same track as auto racing legends A.J. Foyt, Parnelli Jones, Barney Oldfield, Dale Earnhardt, Mario Andretti, Rodger Ward, Butch Hartman, Bobby Allison, Alan Kulwicki and many more.

Drive a NEXTEL Cup Stock Car for 10, 20, even 80 laps, or let a skilled instructor do the driving while you experience the speed with the Dale Jarrett Racing Adventure!

If you plan to drive, pre-registration is required.  If you prefer to ride along, reservations are recommended.  However, if the racing bug bites you once you are in Milwaukee, you can purchase a “Qualifier” ride along at The Milwaukee Mile any of the days during the 1st NSRA Milwaukee Nationals at the track.

A typical session starts with a driver’s meeting.  You then are taken in a passenger vehicle around the speedway to learn the proper racing groove and how to exit the speedway to enter pit road.  Next, you’ll take the wheel of a real NEXTEL Cup racecar!

Each student driver is accompanied by a professional instructor that has no brake or second steering wheel.  Instructors serve as on-board spotters and help you drive the correct racing line, putting you in full control to allow you to go much faster and safer than any other school.

You can expect as many as 8 cars on the track at once, and the entire driving process takes about 2 hours.

Unique to Dale Jarrett Racing Adventure, you are always allowed to pass, and you don’t have to follow anyone!
