having been to both, I prefer open track days to club events. The last club event was filled with super cool cars, and nice people, but was way over regulated with 4 different "groups" taking turns on the track. I probably only ran for about an hour the whole day due to waiting for my group to have its turn. Also they had a lot of no passing zones so I sat behind slower cars a lot waiting to get to a passing lane. (a bit frustrating)
open lapping days are way more laid back and you can come and go from the pits as you please which is better for sitting in other cars while you or your car cool down.
I have ridden in lotus, vettes, 911s, GTRs, mustangs during open lap days. There was a McClaren some farraris and a few other exotics there at the club event, but the schedule didn't allow for me to try and schmooze a ride. bummer.
