What an awesome experience!!! We drove down from Dallas to take my 16 year old son to do a one day…read morecourse and it was one of the most exciting days ever. They have a really neat program to teach drivers the techniques for rally driving and it works. Wes and Scott were super and really focused on safety and having fun. Their program is focused on showing you what needs to be done, doing the skills, taking a break to let is soak in, and then doing it again. It's very well structured and by the end of the day they were doing the slalom course with a lot of confidence. As for the team, I didn't meet anyone at Rally Ready that wasn't outgoing, personable, and just plain nice. They love rallying, but are genuinely good people. It's not about pulling people in to stack the house, but about teaching a subject which they are passionate about. Thank you Wes, Scott, Dave and the whole team at Rally Ready for making my son's experience the best ever.

I looked for a Corvette, because it's his favorite car, but they didn't have one. He drove the Ferrari Portofino. He had 2 laps with an instructor and 3 laps where he drove. I also paid for the video plus photo package. We got the video but no photo. Nevertheless it was so much fun. There were a lot more people than I anticipated driving that day. You have to wait your turn and they give you helmets to wear. The track has several turns and reminded me of a driving game. He had so much fun. He said he would love to do it again! If you can afford it, try it. I have to say the price was cheaper than a couple other places that offer this type of service in Texas. Everyone I saw leaving looked really happy.

The staff made it easy to check in and get wrist bands then we started the ride. We did a couple laps and it was so great. I think I set the track record the Max Verstsppen set at the F1 race!

Comparing the tracks and the area surrounding it, I can understand why the race moved. The track is obviously fantastic as the host F1, Indy, NASCAR along with a ton of other events, but there is a ton of space around the track to watch races; from a variety of grandstands to areas on the lawn, there is a place for everyone. There are a ton of vendors with a variety of foods, merch, and other race specific merch to purchase (Ie. Motorcycle accessories, parts, etc for motorcycle races, etc). They are also building on to the venue with various amusement park rides and to suit family members who may not be as interested in racing. The investment in the venue is awesome! Recommendations: the venue is pretty big so getting familiar with it before hand is a good idea. The is a COTA app you can download which has your tickets, tack maps etc. You can walk around most of the track (not the whole thing) or use the trolley which can save allot of time if you want to get some place in a hurry. There is also an underpass which can cut walking time from one side of the track to another. We will defiantly return to COTA in the future for future races and recommend it to you as well!

Sorry, but spend your money elsewhere.

Exceeded expectations…read more    We had a blast.  Let me start with a few things because some context for an experience like this might help someone else decide if they want to do it or not.  I am not a gamer.  I do love playing mario kart and fifa with my kids on occasion but that's about it.  I have always loved go-karting.  I was invited to the one line racing center by a friend who had been before and loved it.  I knew the concept but honestly didn't really know what to expect.  Well...it was incredible.  I was pretty horrible at it and I'm really competitive so it wasn't easy to crash out a lot and not be on the leaderboard.  We did two different tracks, one which is part of their regular series that everyone competes in and then also COTA with a totally different car. A few things that stood out to me.  The staff was very nice, incredibly informative.  I love driving a stick shift but don't use paddle shifters so that took me some time to get used to.  The technology here is so immersive.  The whole 'rig' moves.  It shakes when you crash, it bumps when you bump, etc...the handling of the car felt incredibly real and varied by car which was both impressive and made it harder (at least for me).   We were there for nearly 2 hours playing almost non stop and if I didn't have to go, I'd have loved to stay longer.  It's an investment for sure and one that is well worth it imo for people of all interests and driving skill level  (they did mention they can adjust things to make it easier to pick up for newer folks, etc..) BTW - I think this would be a really fun team-building event for any companies out there, especially if you're a competitive bunch. If you want to do something different from the usual with your friends, sign up.  They'll soon have some adult beverages available too!  Hopefully you ahve as much fun as I did.

The restrooms were overfilled with toilet paper and carp by early after noon on sat, by night fall were 10xs worse and no ambient lighting . All you could see were piles of toilet paper in the darkness. No verity of food vendors , the biggest place selling food (the only place besides the tracks blue shed)sold pulled pork and a bag of chips. Texans dont eat much pulled pork if at all. Worse of all is 90% of the cars didn't make a full pass and many were loaded in trailers by early sat. The cars that did make a full run, ran slow or ran like a bracket car. The track was to "cold" in 65-80 degree temps, or just bad track. These folks really need to step it up if they want fans coming back . Also non of the pretty amenities were available like in their website all was disabled or dismantled . To much money spent and to many people there on a half @$$ ran event. No dig on Funny Car Chaos, they tried as best they could.

So when I spotted a…read more$124 Groupon for the Rusty Wallace Racing Experience 10-lap "Qualifier" package (regularly $249), I went for it. We arrived at San Antonio Speedway at the appointed time. Check-in was smooth, and everyone was very friendly. They asked my wife if she wanted to add a 3-lap ride-along with a professional driver for another $59 (regularly $99). We decided to go for it, and this ended up being a good idea. My wife felt the ride-along helped her when it came time to do the actual drive. My wife's driving group went through a 45-minute class to learn the procedures and safety considerations, and then they walked out to the pit area to suit up in preparation for their race. Everything went smoothly, and everyone had a great time. In fact, my wife had so much fun that she's already planning to do it again the next time the Rusty Wallace Racing Experience comes to town. Quick note about the facility: San Antonio Speedway is still in pretty bad shape, having only recently reopened after about 4 years of disuse. But the owners are working hard to get things going again. I expect it will soon be back up to speed.

Pro-grade quarter mile drag strip…read more Visited the track during COVID-19 on a "test and tune" Friday evening. Went right at opening time on a Friday evening at 6:00. Fee is $15 per person to enter and watch (pay as you enter the main gate). To run your car, purchase a "tech card." Tech cards are an additional $20 (pay the guys in the concession type trailer under the grandstands). Then, take your car with the "tech card" to the inspectors to have your car verified for track-worthiness. After the inspection is complete, they'll tell you your category and where to line up. If you're new to drag racing, go early before it gets really crowded late in the evening. The track follows all NHRA safety rules. So familiarize yourself with the basics before going (e.g., you must wear a helmet if your car runs below 14 seconds). After the quarter mile portion of the racetrack, there's a nice long section of roughly another quarter mile to slow down. After your run, go to the very end of the track, and slowly turn left and head back toward the grandstands to pick up your time slip. This track is welcoming to diverse cars. We saw everything from a new Lexus sedan, a Nissan GT-R, a Dodge Hellcat Challlenger, Mustangs, Camaros,, and much more. It's nice to see a wide variety of makes and models. Bathroom facilities: present but cleanliness below average Tips: (1) The parking lot is not a place to show off. Drive slowly and respectfully in the parking lot. (2) Safety and a cool head is a key to a good racing experience. During COVID-19, masks were encouraged but not enforced. This is a different culture and different social mores. So if you're hyper-paranoid, don't visit.
