Sunday we headed to the SpeedRing, an indoor racing facility just outside Sunnyvale. Before each race you go through a 15 minute safety breifing then you get suited up and jump into the car. The 1/4mile road style race track has lots of tight 180 degree turns and a back straight that you speed down at close to 35mph (which feels like 100mph when your sitting so low to the ground !).
