Be a Race Car Driver

How would you like to have the experience of being a race car driver? Well, guess what? Now you might have the perfect opportunity to do just that and you have come to the right place to read all about it.

DealDash.com has a brand new auction for shoppers to experience being behind the wheel of a super race car on a track in Thornburg, Virginia. If you do not win this auction, you could BIN (Buy-It-Now) for $507.00.

Unfortunately, the first auction for this rare opportunity to “put the pedal to the metal” behind the wheel of a supercar and take three laps around a special race track is already up for auction and all new bidders have already been blocked. However, DealDash might hold more auctions like this one, so if you missed it keep your eyes open for another one.

The winner of this auction will start with a 20 to 30 minute classroom session. According to the DealDash description, the professional instructor will “go over racing tips, proper driving position, steering techniques, braking and acceleration with powerful vehicles.” Following the classroom session, you will “be sent down to the pit to be fitted for your helmet and to prepare yourself for the thrill of a lifetime!”

If you feel the need for speed this will be the opportunity for you to feed your craving. The car you will be driving can hit 60 MPH in just three seconds and reach top speeds of 200-plus MPH.

You will take the driver’s seat but your instructor will be in the passenger seat the entire time to “give you real-time feedback and pointers on how to get the most out of both the course and your supercar!”

Once in awhile you want to push the pedal to the metal!

Drivers must be at least 18 years of age and possess a valid driver’s license. It’s not recommended for participants who are more than 6 feet, 3 inches tall or anyone who exceeds 350 pounds. Helmets will be provided. Also included in the cost is the minimum track insurance policy, but participants could upgrade the insurance for an additional fee at the time of booking. “Photos and video of your experience will be available for purchase at the track on the day of your experience.” The winning driver will be able to share this experience with family and friends who could see the action close up, but the maximum “ride along” participants is three persons. Pit passes are available on the day of the event for an additional $10 per person but anyone under age 12 is free.

According to the DealDash description all of the supercars are equipped with a semi-automatic transmission and drive just like your automatic car. However, if you know how to shift and have track experience and want to use the paddle shifters, let your instructor know and he or she will be happy to help you shift.

This auction does not include accommodations and other expenses such as flights to and from the location of the track, but the winner will receive a digital voucher for the experience itself.

For more information about possible changes or delays due to inclement weather, unexpected mechanical issues, COVID-19 safety rules in place or other details, see the complete DealDash description.

Brief History of Auto Racing

Frank Duryea won the first motor-car race held in the United States on Thanksgiving Day in 1895. This mechanic and inventor, along with his brother, designed their own “horseless carriage” for the race.

Enzo Ferrari, a young Italian car mechanic and engineer, is listed as the first race car driver in history. Ferrari’s first car race took place on Oct. 5, 1919, on a hill climb in Parma, Italy.

In the early 20th century, rich petrol heads would race their cars on Ormond Beach in Florida. The first car to break 100 mph in 1905 was a 90hp Napier owned by S.E. Edge. It was driven by Arthur MacDonald, a British man who took it to 104.65 mph over the measured mile.

The world’s fastest cars in the 1970s were:

  • 7 1970 Ferrari 365 GT (2+2): 156 mph…
  • 6 1971 De Tomaso Mangusta: 155 mph…
  • 5 1970 Chrysler Hemi: 155 mph …
  • 4 1971 Chevrolet Corvette ZR2: 152 mph …
  • 3 1970 Dodge Challenger: 146 mph …
  • 2 1971 Plymouth GTX 440: 145 mph …
  • 1 1970 Chevrolet Chevelle SS LS6: 142 mph

In 1999 the world’s fastest car was the Lamborghini Diablo GT that reached 215 mph. 

According to my search, the new $1.9 million SSC Tuatara hyper car legitimately claimed the title as the fastest car in the world in early 2021 with a verified two-way average speed of 282.9 mph in Florida

If you have a need for speed, keep your eye open for another “ride of a lifetime” auction on DealDash.com.

 Use These Saturday Tips from the August 25th Blog

The theme of August 25th’s blog was full of tips to use on Saturdays DealDash. The top tip of that blog was simply to find the right time to bid – taking into account time differences from coast to coast. Here is the gist of that idea, from the blog:

“ You will have to take into account the time differences. For example, if you are on the East Coast, a good time to bid might be during mid-morning when a lot of people are out to brunch, but the people on the West Coast might still be sleeping. Play around with the times, you’ll find your sweet spot.”

The blog article on August 27th had interesting tips about the new and different items and promotions on DealDash. One of these points is that some of the newer items are slow sellers at first.  Here’s what the blog had to say about this phenomenon:

DealDash Tips for the Week Ahead

DealDash

What’s going on this week on DealDash? Lots of fun auctions, that’s for sure! Read these tips and be ready to win some auctions.

Here we are at the beginning of another week. It’s another chance for you to have a clean slate and start bidding and winning in DealDash auctions. If you just signed up, or if you still need a little help, then these tips will help you get started on your way to winning.

It’s the End of the Month, Almost

Many people in the United States get paid in the beginning of the month, or in the beginning and middle of the month. By the time it rolls around to the end of the month people are less likely to have extra money in their “fun budget” to either spend on bids or do a BIN (Buy It Now) on a more expensive auction. You can take advantage of this by saving up your bids or your fun money budget for the end of the month rather than the beginning. Give it a try!

Many New Items

This week we see lots of new items that have only just come up for auction recently. Some examples of this include giant round bean bag loungers, smart outlets for your home, and different styles of jewelry. You might be surprised to know that these new items aren’t always huge sellers when they are first up for bid. Sometimes it takes a little time for people to notice these new auctions that are available and just waiting for people to bid on them.

Take Advantage of Promotions

There are lots of promotions this week as well. Will it be a half-off auction day? Or even a FREE auction day sometime this week? What will be the lowest bid price that you will encounter? The only way to find out the answers to these questions is to be sure that you are at least checking in on DealDash every day. You might be surprised at what you might find!

Thanks for Reading the Blog

Keep these things in mind when you are bidding on DealDash this week. Check out the new items category and you will find something that you really want to bid on.

Saturday Tips for DealDash Fun

DealDash

Happy Saturday, DealDash bidders! Read this article and get some great tips to use over the weekend.

I hope that you’re having a great weekend so far. You will have a much better weekend if you win an auction, for sure! There’s nothing better than making a great weekend even better by winning an auction for something that you have been wanting. Here are some tips to make the most of your weekend on DealDash. Read on for information that you can use.

Is Everyone Out Having Fun? Time to Bid

One of the best weekend tips is that you should figure out when other people are typically busy and out doing things. Once you have figured out when this time is, then you will know exactly when you should be bidding. However, don’t forget that people from coast-to-coast are bidding, from the East Coast to the West Coast. You will have to take into account the time differences. For example, if you are on the East Coast, a good time to bid might be during mid-morning when a lot of people are out to brunch, but the people on the West Coast might still be sleeping. Play around with the times, you’ll find your sweet spot.

Stay Up Late

If it’s the weekend, why not stay up extra late and bid? This tip might not be of very much use to the people on the East Coast, but West Coasters, this is your time to shine. All of us over here on the Atlantic Coast are sleeping, and maybe even your neighbors…But you can stay up late and bid!

Skip the Store, Go to DealDash

I don’t know about you, but my family typically saves all of our errands to buy things for the weekend. If we need anything for the yard or household then we wait until the weekend to go to the store. But why waste the weekend walking around a store when you could be out making the most of your time? Just find what you’re shopping for on DealDash and skip the store! DealDash offers free shipping on all items, so why not?

Thanks for Reading the Blog

Have a great weekend and be sure to check out the auctions on DealDash. Use these weekend tips and you’ll have a great and productive weekend of wins.
