Arkansas is in Charlotte today getting ready for the Belk Bowl on Thursday, and today the Razorbacks got to take in the Richard Petty Driving Experience at the Charlotte Motor Speedway.
The Petty Experience allows riders to take a 160 mph ride around the track in a race car. These being real race cars, players had to squeeze in through the window. That provided an interesting challenge for 6-foot-10 offensive lineman Dan Skipper and DT Taiwan Johnson.
