Racing dates back to ancient Greece, where chariot races around city walls settled disputes over farming rights and which philosopher had the best beard. Witness the fairest system of justice with this Groupon.

The Deal

$399 for a two-lap indycar ride-along with an Indy legend on January 17 ($799 value)

Indy Racing Experience connects diehard Indy fans with Indy legends who actually take the wheel of a specially built racecar during two-lap ride-alongs. Cruises reach speeds of up to 180 miles per hour, giving passengers first-hand knowledge of what's it's like to be a racing champion. Indy Racing Experience recommends passengers dress comfortably and cover their feet with socks or sock monkeys that have been taught how to hug. Indy Racing Experience will send the final details about the experience, such as where to report for the ride, one week before the event date.
