It is the definitely the " Bacardi Bus " and over the years it has proven that a Bus can go supersonic around a road course , or maybe it just feels like it since you are sitting in old couches, barcaloungers and other assorted seating devices. Let's say you get to know your fellow riders and surprisingly the driver occasionally points out some little known facts about the track at certain spots. This can be very beneficial , but the only problem is few folks seem to be able to remember the track highlights after the evening.

Small history, the name came from the early years where a $5 donation to board the Bus got you a small Bacardi Can cocktail with the money going to Charity. So it became the " Bacardi Bus " and many events requested a bus thrill ride. Never went very fast , it was just a fun and silly course talk and run and helped a lot of drivers get to know each other.
