Shameless self-promotion


Loyal Troy's Noise followers know that I recently wrote about my experience riding around Atlanta Motor Speedway at frightening speeds as a passenger in a Jeff Gordon Racing School stock car.

There's video of the experience as well that will give you a better understanding of what 175 m.p.h. really looks like. My Ledger-Enquirer colleague Jerry Morehouse shot video of his own three-lap ride and recorded my futile attempts to put on the Jeff Gordon Racing School firesuit and get into the vehicle (remember, the doors are welded shut) without assistance. It's funny stuff.

Our ace video guy, Joe Paull, edited the webcast, which can be seen at the following locations:

If nothing else, you can make fun of how the racing uniform looks on me.
