That looks great. I will be sure to check it out next time I am in Vegas. Pricing doesn't seem bad considering the cars you get to drive. Depends on how much you get to drive I guess.

Thanks for posting this! I hope I can get out to Vegas this summer and if I do there I am definitely taking an LP560-4 out! (unless they give me the no-go for being 6'4"... I have sat in an lp560-4 and it was a tight squeeze but I do see in their FAQ that I might be out of luck) I may have to drop them an email if I do get to go to Vegas this summer.

No go on the GT3 RS right now as all the cars have to be automatics of some sort. Sucks as the GT3RS is my all time favorite. Hell our carrera S is probably the most fun in my opinion.
Scuderia is on the way cant wait to fire that thing up in the warehouse...
As for being 6'4'' thats going to be real tough in the lambo.. guys who are over 6' have a tough time.. but dont rule it out.

Wow what an awesome experience. Price is very reasonable but I got a bit turned off about not having the GT3 RS because its a stick.
Guess that means you guys can add the brand new McLaren MP4-12C to your fleet of cars.

Oh dang forgot about the helmet and all that. I have sat in an lp560-4 but it was extremely cramped without anything extra. haha... sounds like a might be out of luck. Kind of a deal breaker unfortunately. I definitely would enjoy driving a Scuderia but I'm a lambo guy at heart so it would kill me seeing the lp560-4 out on the track and not being able to drive it. Guess I'll have to figure out that out when I figure out if I can make it back to vegas this summer.
Do any of the instructors know which cars I'd probably be alright with? I'm guessing the R8 and Aston might be alright.
EDIT: A GTR would be a cool addition to the group.

true story... Anyone above 5'10" or so is tight with a helmet...

The Ferrari has a few inches of extra head room. The R8 is slightly bigger as well. Aston and Porsche have enough room...
We have been begging for a GTR. I think the owner is scared the GTR will do laps around his Italian beasts...
5-10 laps is norm, but I have seen guys do much more in a day. Just more $$.

bchappy and 1slowevo, do you guys work for exotics racing? This is the first I've heard or exotics racing, previously I've been looking at supercarlife.com. It looks like both have Las Vegas motor speedway as a track, but supercarlife also has Spring Mountain Motorsports Ranch as a track.
After reading the FAQ it appears that they will let you open the car up if you have some prior track experience. I don't want to go out there and drive 10/10ths in a car I've never driven, but it would be nice to be able to take 1 or 2 laps at 8/10ths. Can I expect to be able to open the car up a little once the instructor has some confidence in the driver?
