The pro drivers at Rusty Wallace Racing Experience set pulses racing as patrons speed around the curves of Kentucky Speedway's paved oval track in real-life rubber-incinerating packages. With the shotgun ride-along, passengers hop aboard a stock car and feel four laps' worth of raw velocity as a professional driver reduces the outside world to a blur. The Shootout racing experience outfits participants in a custom Oakley racing suit, preparing drivers to tear around the 1.5-mile track's 14-degree banked turns, just as a professional racer or ambitious afterhours janitor would. After 45 minutes of classroom instruction familiarizes soon-to-be drivers with the course’s corners, students get to take the wheel for 12 invigorating laps, leaving their hair mussed, their eyes bulged, and their torsos coated in corporate sponsorships.

Rusty Wallace Racing Experience

After decades of winning the admiration of racing fans with his aggressive driving strategy and off-track charisma, Rusty Wallace now offers a racing experience where instructors teach clients the tricks of the pro-racing trade with breathtaking ride-alongs and racing experiences. Guests buckle up and sit shotgun alongside a professional driver as they sends stock cars flying down straightaways and around curves, or they can get behind the wheel themselves, finally feeling what it's like to be a professional driver. Each heart-pounding experience introduces participants to the intricacies and unique characteristics of some of the country's most celebrated racetracks.

The Groupon Guide to: Types of Pianos

From Mozart to Beethoven and back to Mozart again, all of history's most-famous musicians owned a piano. Here's all the information you've always wanted to know about the types of pianos that exist:

Baby Grand Piano: If you hear the sounds of a piano emanating from an open window of a house, you're either listening to a baby grand piano, the most popular consumer piano, or one of the millions of CDs featuring solo piano playing. Find out which one it is by climbing through that open window.

Petite Grand Piano: This piano is the perfect size to fit inside the cavity of a baby grand piano, which comes in handy when you're performing the classic "pulling a petite grand piano out of a baby grand piano" magic trick.

Player Piano: Though the player piano has all the makings of a regular piano (real-wood exterior, 88 keys, bench that opens up so the piano player can store food), it is unplayable and only emits sound when you hum a song from inside of it.

What type of piano am I?
