In order to become successful stock-car drivers, participants must exhibit an unsatisfied need for speed and the stubborn refusal to stop and ask for directions. Fine-tune your tire burning abilities with today's Groupon to Drivetech at the Richmond International Raceway. Classes are currently scheduled on June 10-11 and September 22. Drivetech regularly adds dates, so be sure to check the schedule. Choose from the following racing options:

• For $199, you get to drive 12 laps around the track (up to a $399 value).
• For $49, you get a five-lap ride-along with a driver (an $89 value).

Drivetech's pro drivers use unmatchable speed and stock-car authenticity to guarantee a healthy flood of adrenaline in every driver and passenger they take around the track. Once Drivetech's expert instructors fill latent speed demons in on safety procedures, steering techniques, and rubber-burning incantations, drivers are free to indulge in a 12-lap blast around Richmond's speedway. If they'd rather ride shotgun, the five-lap ride-along gives racecar fanatics and thrill-seeking maniacs the chance to feel the g-force of a stock car as it shoots down straightaways and rounds corners at ridiculous speeds. Though the experience is as safe as nose-diving into a ball pit full of Tickle Me Elmos, you'll feel like stakes are high as Drivetech's four-wheeled metal rockets hurtle you around the asphalt.

Though Drivetech sometimes features a discounted price online, this Groupon still offers the best deal available.
