So, this past Thursday I attended the SRT Experience in Englishtown, NJ. I've autocrossed, I've got a fair bit of road course track time and as I mentioned, I have even run down a dragstrip 3 times, but none of those experiences could really prepare me for the weather conditions we faced on Thursday. I was surprised that we were allowed to run in those conditions. It was raining so fiercely that it was hard to see at times. That said, I'm proud to say that two of the three podium finishers for the autocross were Jeep owners (including yours truly!).
As some many before me have said, it's a great experience. I'm not sure I'd spend $500 on it, but it was fun nevertheless. I had such a good time and met some great folks. The instructors were wonderful. I had the good fortune of getting to ride in a Jeep for the hotlaps, which was pretty cool. The guy was basically drifting his way around the track, which was pretty wild... Anyway, if you have the opp. to go, I highly recommend it.
