Who wants to drive a Ferrari or Lambo for the day?

This sounds like an awesome deal.

I did the Dream Car tour a few years ago and had a blast. But the "sprint" sounds like one lap around some made up track for about 5 minutes of seat time.

Wait, so do I get driven in the exotic, or do I get to actually drive the car?

I could throw a shot of nitrous in my 335 and walk past one of these things I don't think the acceleration would be exciting one bit.

the article says they take you on a ride in a exotic car at a max of 100mph, you dont drive it. to do the tour is like 850 a person for a grp of 8 people i think.

Looks like you get to drive 3 laps. It'll probably be 2 laps of lessons and the final lap will take 2 min, and you're dunzo.

with a little reading I was able to find this in the description below the deal.

Quote:
Amateur racers will whip their more than 500-horsepower ride three times around the autocross track, learning how to tame their power with the aid of an instructor before coming out of the third lap on a straightaway to open the engine up to 100 mph.

Lol taking an exotic around a tight auto-x course is supposed to be a thrill? This is good as paying a $1000 for a track day at Lime Rock.
